The Manga Cleaning Tool Scanlators Have Been Waiting For

If you have ever done scanlation work, you know the pain. Cleaning manga pages - removing the Japanese text, erasing the sound effects, dealing with speech bubbles - it takes forever. What should be a fun translation project turns into hours of tedious Photoshop work just to get clean pages. Our AI changes that completely. Upload a raw manga page and watch as it identifies and removes all the text automatically. Not just the dialogue in speech bubbles, but also those stylized sound effects (SFX) that manga is known for - the ドドド for dramatic moments, the キラキラ for sparkles, all of it. The AI understands manga conventions and removes text while preserving the artwork beneath. For scanlators, this cuts cleaning time from hours to seconds. For fans, it means you can create clean wallpapers and art references without needing any editing skills. For translators, it means you can focus on the actual translation work instead of the tedious cleanup.

What Makes Our Remove Text from Manga Tool Special?

1Removes All Japanese Text

Dialogue, narration boxes, signs within the art - our AI handles all Japanese text regardless of font style or placement. It recognizes both horizontal and vertical text layouts common in manga.

2Handles Sound Effects (SFX)

Manga SFX are notoriously difficult to clean because they are often integrated into the artwork. Our AI recognizes these stylized onomatopoeia and removes them while preserving the underlying art.

3Works on All Manga Styles

Shonen action scenes, shojo romance panels, seinen drama, josei stories - our AI is trained on diverse manga art styles and handles them all effectively.

4Professional Scanlation Quality

The cleaning quality matches what professional scanlation groups produce manually. Many groups already use this tool to speed up their workflow while maintaining quality standards.

What Our Users Say

Thousands of users trust our AI to remove text from their manga images.

Yuki M.

Scanlation Team Lead

Our group was spending 3-4 hours cleaning each chapter. Now it takes 15 minutes. The SFX removal is honestly better than what our best cleaners could do manually. Total game changer for the scanlation community.

Ryan K.

Digital Artist

I use manga panels as art reference all the time. Having clean versions without text means I can actually study the composition and line work. This tool is now a permanent part of my workflow.

Sophie T.

Manga Editor

Been doing scanlation for 5 years and this is the biggest improvement to our process I've ever seen. What used to take our cleaning team hours now takes seconds. Quality is professional-grade.

Marcus L.

Fan Translator

Started doing solo translations as a hobby. Without this tool I'd never have time to actually translate - I'd be stuck cleaning forever. Now I can focus on the fun part. Released my first chapter in a weekend!

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I remove text from manga pages?

Just upload your raw manga page - scanned or digital, either works. The AI automatically identifies Japanese text, speech bubbles, and sound effects. It removes everything and reconstructs the artwork beneath. The whole process takes just a few seconds per page. You get a clean page ready for translation or whatever else you need.

Will it remove sound effects (SFX)?

Yes! This is actually one of the hardest parts of manga cleaning to do manually because SFX are often stylized and integrated into the artwork. Our AI recognizes manga-specific onomatopoeia patterns and removes them while preserving the underlying art. Works on dramatic impact SFX, ambient sounds, action lines with text - all the common manga conventions.

Does it work on all manga styles?

We have trained the AI on a wide variety of manga art styles. Shonen action manga with dynamic layouts, shojo with delicate screentones, seinen with detailed backgrounds, older manga with different conventions - the AI handles them all. The diversity of manga art means occasional edge cases, but the vast majority of pages clean up perfectly.

Can I use this for scanlation projects?

Absolutely, and many scanlation groups already do. The quality matches professional manual cleaning but takes seconds instead of hours. Upload your raws, get clean pages, add your translations. It has dramatically sped up release times for groups that use it. Perfect for both solo translators and team projects.
