About Manga Translator

Manga Translator translates manga page images into 50+ languages by combining OCR text detection with AI translation, then places the translated text back into the original page layout and font styling. Without an account, it gives 10 free uses a week; registering unlocks 5 more free uses a day through a check-in. Paid plans run on a credit system: Basic at $8/month, Pro at $30/month, and Ultra at $24/month billed yearly, each adding more credits, priority processing speed, multiple translation models (GPT-5, Papago, Google Translate), and removing the watermark that free translations carry.

Key Features

AI OCR text detection on manga images

When to upgrade to a paid plan

Stay on the free plan while you're comfortably under the free plan's limit (10 free uses/week with no login, +5/day for registered users via check-in). It's worth moving to a paid plan once you consistently bump into that ceiling, need to remove branding, or want features the free tier holds back. Paid plans start at $8/mo.
