Hi LocalLLaMA, I created a post a few weeks ago, but this time this project has become reliable and easier to use. This is a manga translator that can also be used to translate any image. It uses a combination of object detection, visual LLM-based OCR, layout analysis, and fine-tuned inpainting models. I believe it is the most performant and easy-to-use pipeline for manga translation. For the LLM part, I have integrated llama.cpp into this application; it s the Gemma 4 family and the Qwen3.5 family, and also includes uncensored and fine-tuned models.
