AI manga translator vs. a screenshot translator
Google Lens and browser translate extensions put a text layer over the page. They do not remove the original text underneath, cannot match the bubble size, and give you a screen, not a readable chapter. LingoManga re-letters the page itself and returns a downloadable ZIP in page order.

| Original lettering | Replaced in the bubble | Still underneath |

Questions
What is an AI manga translator?
It is a tool that reads the text on a manga or webtoon page and puts lettering in your chosen output language back into the same speech bubbles. LingoManga does this page by page on the image itself, so the panels, art and page order stay as they were.
Can it translate raw manga scans?
Yes. Upload a ZIP or CBZ of raw manga pages — JPG, PNG or WebP — and LingoManga re-letters every page into your chosen language. The source language is detected automatically; Japanese is the most reliable, and other languages may need a closer look at the free preview.
Does it keep the original art and layout?
The output keeps the original panels, page shape and reading order. The model redraws the page to place the chosen language in the bubbles, so fine line art and screentones can shift slightly. Check the free preview pages before paying and request a refund if the result is clearly broken.
Does it work with CBZ and ZIP files?
Yes. Upload one chapter as a .zip or .cbz up to 25 MB and 3–60 pages. Pages are sorted naturally, so page-2 comes before page-10, and double-page spreads stay one page.
Does it support manhwa or vertical webtoons?
Yes. Vertical webtoon pages stay one long image, and the source language is detected automatically. Japanese is the best-tested source; Korean and Chinese can be attempted but may be less reliable, so check the free preview before paying.
