By far, this is the best manga translator I’ve used, it surpasses all the others I’ve tried so far though it has its own flaws but is normal for all manga translators to have.

This works! I'm having a good time reading manga online without having to wait for scans to translate them. I wish the best for this team and it's extension. Great work guys.

Unbelievably convenient translation addon, all of you guys should try it.

The addon itself is excellent but lacks the ability to use local models or even our own API keys. I personally use a deepseek api provider so having to pay even more to use it here despite that is not a great feeling. Other than that, the inpainting and everything else is great, it really looks like its manually translated sometimes.

Hey another review guy here! but Seriously, before Torii Image Translator, getting through untranslated manga was such a chore. I used to do it all by hand with Tesseract OCR or other OCR services, and then I’d copy and paste it (obviusly also need to spend a bit of time correcting the formats of text order etc) into DeepL or google translate it took forever to clean it all up and get the formatting right. Each chapter was like, two or three hours of work, maybe more. Its really a total time sink. Now, though? I just drop the image files in and it does all the work for me. The translations are pretty cool too ,and it only takes a minute! It’s a total game changer. I really like how easy it is to use, and the translation quality is pretty nice too (honestly its very servicable and i didn't even use the top models since they use more credits deepseek is goat here for price/performance). I already picked up the 2000 (edit because i misremembered its not 2000 its 2500 credits instead!) credits for like 6 bucks, and it’s honestly good for its price.If you like untranslated comics or manhwa, or really anything with text in an image, you can use this!

I could've rate it much higher if it was free

Completely ignored the main text of the image. Completely useless.

its ok until the trial is over

Not free user friendly in the *slightest*, first impressions were abysmal and not worth cash either.

I'm writing this review after postponing it for a few months. I like the translations it offers. It's cheaper than others and provides usage proportional to what you pay. I bought a few golf balls and am using them. Even though free usage is limited, the prices are cheaper compared to a few others I've used, and it offers a wide range of languages. My only concern is privacy. Even if the developer says they don't store data, we can't be sure and have to trust them.



Wake up wake up wake up!

It works super well. I used to use Ichigo on Chrome before moving over to Firefox, but this one beats it in every single regard. Even the pricing is beyond reasonable.

Pretty much the best one straight Outta the box.

Would've been even cooler if I could also use my own api keys ngl

Works wonderfully. However it's too expensive, and without localized pricing it becomes harder for non-Americans. The inpainting/rendering must be the most computationally intensive part. Why not just create text overlays using HTML & CSS tools instead? Just instead text boxes at the coordinates of the text and set its backdrop-filter to blur. At least consider that for a cheaper tier.

So the firefox extension works very well on a couple of manga websites I tested.
The choice of LLMs has increased and the brand new 2.5 flash has been added!
For manga reading the 2.0 is more than enough but I think that adding the image context option helps a lot.

For those who leave low star reviews because it's paid, please take into account that nothing in this life is free. This extension, apart from coding the extension itself, requires a service that runs in the background, and API calls to the LLM providers. All of these cost money, and you have to have the actual skills to do it. Most of the "low star because it's paid" reviewers have absolutely no idea how stuff work, could never do it on their own, and still expect it to be free.

Please appreciate the effort that has gotten into this, the ongoing running costs, the ease of use that it provides, which would be unimaginable a few years ago and the really really low amount of money it requires from the end user.

Google lens might be "free", but even if we don't consider the inconvenience, it feeds on your data, so it's not really free. Nothing in life is free. Perhaps the air we breathe, but I have doubts.

Great work stringie! I'd give 6 stars if I could.

best ai translation known to man

I can confidently say that this is the best extension for translating text in images, and it is very accurate.

People who are writing poor reviews for something that requires payment for use are being quite inconsiderate of the developer. There are alternative addons that allow you to translate locally that are free... but this one provides translations using another method. This requires no knowledge of Python, hosting servers, or anything of the sort.

The translations are (usually) pretty good. The text is as impressive as a typical Google translate result... but what I'm more impressed about is it's ability to overlay the foreign text with the translated text. If you can afford 5 bucks for a good amount of translations... then I say it's worth the money.

Removed, paid.

Works well but I might rather just suffer with google lenses then pay for machine translation.

It is nice that they charge per token rather than th bs subscription model

Amazing Translator! Highly Recommend

Better extension of all the time!!!

:D
