“The greatest challenge in manga translation is that the original text covers essential background artwork, and simple translation methods leave behind unsightly white blocks.”

Root Cause Analysis

AI-Powered Automatic Removal and Background Restoration

After recognizing the text inside dialogue bubbles, Shangyi AI employs inpainting—an AI-driven technique for localized redrawing—to automatically erase the original text and intelligently reconstruct the background based on neighboring pixels, making it look as if no text was ever present.

Automated Typesetting and Font Matching

The system automatically adjusts the translation's font size and line spacing according to the size of the speech bubble, achieving automated typesetting. Currently, ZIP, CBZ, and other common manga packaging formats are supported.

Final Solution Summary

Shangyi AI shortens manga localization tasks that once took days to just minutes, making it an essential tool for manga distributors and enthusiasts.
