General mode is available for a quick preview. Manga mode remains a PRO and Business feature; Free and Standard users see an upgrade prompt before a manga job is created.

How is Manga Mode different from General mode?

Manga mode focuses on dialogue bubbles, concise comic wording and outlined comic lettering. General mode scans page text more broadly and uses general-purpose translation and typography.

Can I separately translate or keep sound effects?

There is no separate sound-effect selector. Bubble-focused translation prioritizes dialogue and may keep artistic SFX in the artwork; use the editor to add or correct a missed effect when appropriate.

Does it support vertical Japanese text?

The manga translator detects text orientation and box placement for common manga dialogue. Very small, stylized or low-contrast text can still be missed, so review every result against the original page.

Does it support CBZ, CBR or an entire chapter?

This page accepts JPG, PNG and static WebP images. It does not claim direct CBZ or CBR support. Eligible paid plans can upload multiple image pages within their existing batch limits.

Are uploaded manga pages public?

No. Uploads are stored privately and processed through temporary authorized access. History retention depends on the current plan. Only upload pages you are permitted to process.

Comic dialogue prompt

The translator is instructed to preserve emotion, humor, names, voice and concise speech-bubble phrasing without inventing dialogue.

Comic-aware typesetting

Comic lettering and text outlines remain consistent, while returned font size, color, stroke and placement stay available as the editing baseline.
