A Python tool that automatically detects, OCRs, translates, inpaints, and re-typesets text in images, primarily for manga and comics. It runs as a CLI, batch processor, web UI, or API server and supports Japanese, Chinese, English, and 20+ other languages.

Use cases

• translate manga pages automatically
• remove text from images and inpaint
• translate text inside screenshots
• batch translate webtoon chapters
• self-host an image translation API
• translate Japanese comics without knowing Japanese

When to choose

• you need automated translation of text embedded in images, especially manga
• you want both text removal/inpainting and re-typesetting in one pipeline
• you need CLI, batch, web, or API deployment modes

When to avoid

• you need professional-quality human translation
• you only need document OCR without translation
• you cannot run GPU/CPU-heavy deep learning models locally
