I’ve been hacking on a fun side project: Story to Manga The idea is simple: Paste a short story. Choose a style (manga or comic). Get back panels with consistent characters, settings, and mood. It analyzes your text, builds character references, storyboards the panels (dialogue, camera angle, mood), and then generates full manga pages. The hard part—and what makes it actually usable—is keeping characters consistent across panels. We’ve used it to turn micro-stories, hackathon recaps, and silly inside jokes into legit manga chapters. It’s still early, but fun enough that we thought HN might…

Just go to the link and click on "Start Creating". No signing in required. I built shortbread to help anyone to create comics / manga series. The onboarding process helps you kick start a page from 60%, then you can use your creativity to bring it to 1000% in a fully-controllable editor. Tech stack: GPT 3.5 Turbo - the comic script generation. It handled everything from layout, character, scene, SD prompts, to dialogue. SD 1.5 - We put up SD servers on GCP.

I enjoy reading manga and journaling. Recently, I started wondering what would happen if I combined the two... I wanted a different way to document moments that happen in my life in a format that’s almost just as personal as writing, but also easy to share with friends. That’s how the idea to turn life memories into manga came about. With MangaMe, you can take moments from your life, anything from funny stories to the most mundane everyday activities, and turn them into a manga page for you to keep or share. The hardest part has been getting the AI to keep characters looking the same across…

Since I was young, I've loved anime, and over the years, manga has brought me joy, given me courage, and sparked excitement in my heart. However, as I read more, I realized that many of these manga weren't translated at all. I also came across some AI-based translation tools, but the results often fell short. So, I decided to create a tool that allows manga fans to read and enjoy their favorite manga, no matter the language or whether a translation team is available. This product has just been launched, and there are certainly areas that can be improved. However, with time, I'm confident it…

Hi HN, As a huge manga fan and a translator by training, I've always been in awe of the incredible amount of work that fan translators put in. The process isn't just about translation; it involves manually cleaning the original text from the bubbles, redrawing the background art (inpainting), and then carefully placing the translated text back in (typesetting). It's a true labor of love, but it's incredibly time-consuming. I wondered if modern AI could help automate the most tedious parts of this workflow. So, I built AIFandom. It's a web tool where you upload your manga pages, and it…
