The new scribe really just seems the exact same thing(after all it's still 1 gen like people noticed), just with white bezels , and im wondering if isn't it actually worst to have an actual white next to the greyish white of the eink? never had white ereaders

I have not read paper comics in many years, but I find reading them on my iPad Pro absolutely beautiful and vibrant, in a way I never found paper comics to be. I'm always pausing to admire and soak in the beauty.
eInk color does not offer that 'wow' experience and probably never will but it adds versatility and it's just nice to see color cover thumbnails and images instead of greyscale ones and being able to have highlights in color.

You're partially right, Considee though that manga chapters actually comes at first in big magazines that are even bigger than a scribe.
It's true the most popular format for manga volume is tankobon, and that's around a 8" ereader, that is slightly smaller. I was going for a sage at first, but eventually changed my mind cause the idea to have the pro of scribe like best contrast at the time, nice battery and bigger size was nice. "deluxe" volumes of manga are usually released as kanzeban, that are around the 10" size of scribe, so it works pretty nice, + if you really want you can read in horizontal and actually have like an actual classic manga open.
I agree with you on comic books they're actually very nice on tablets, some more than others.
I don't share the same feelings on the colors in eink though, i rarely use higlights and i don't really care about the versatility of this extra, like i have this view that we already have lot of different device like phones , tablets, pc where we are continuosly searching for more versatility and cool advanced feature while I was actually kinda fascinated by ereader at first by how much of a "simple" objects they were. Here take this and start to read books . So it really feel a lot of stuff is superfluos to me, and I can't really follow, especially when there's a loss on reading experience quality to add these extra features like it happens with color right now.
