Manga Translation Wizard-AI-powered manga translation tool

Example

In a manga scene where a character says 'itadakimasu' before eating, this phrase literally means 'I humbly receive,' but the Wizard suggests translating it as 'Let's eat!' or 'Thanks for the food!' to fit the cultural context of a Western audience.

Scenario

This function is useful in scenes with common Japanese customs or phrases that don't directly translate. It ensures the readers in the target language can understand and relate to the moment.

Example

In a manga where a character refers to a 'kotatsu,' Manga Translation Wizard provides a brief cultural note explaining it’s a traditional Japanese heated table, often used in winter.

Scenario

This function is ideal when translating culturally specific items or events that have no direct counterpart in the target language. Instead of leaving the reader confused, it adds an explanation to enhance comprehension.

Example

A character might say '猿も木から落ちる' ('Even monkeys fall from trees'), a Japanese idiom meaning 'Even experts make mistakes.' Manga Translation Wizard offers an equivalent English idiom like 'Even the best fall down sometimes.'

Scenario

This is especially helpful in translating proverbs, sayings, or expressions that would lose meaning with a literal translation. It finds equivalent idioms in the target language that convey the same idea.
