Could you build this?
Partial While calling vision models via API is easy, robust in-image manga translation requires manga-specific OCR, bubble segmentation, inpainting the original text, and font matching.
What it would actually take: A production version requires an image processing pipeline using deep learning models trained specifically on Japanese manga (e.g., Manga-OCR, Comic Text Detector), inpainting algorithms (like LaMa) to erase original text seamlessly, and SVG/Canvas text rendering to match original typesetting. A vibe-coder could mock this with multimodal LLM APIs, but clean text removal and aesthetic replacement require specialized CV pipelines.
