## What it is
LunaTranslator is a Windows application that translates visual novels (galgames) in real time. It extracts text via win32 hooking or OCR and displays machine-translated output while playing.

## Use cases
- translate visual novels while playing
- hook game text from Japanese galgames
- OCR untranslated game screens
- read eroge in another language
- extract text from games without English patches

## When to choose
- you play Japanese visual novels and want live translation
- the game lacks an official translation or patch
- you need both text hooking and OCR fallback

## When to avoid
- you need translation for non-Windows platforms
- you want to translate web pages or documents rather than games
- you need a translation API or library to embed in your own software
