Mangaplay
Type a story. Watch it become a storyboard for a manga/comic
What it does
A browser text editor to write a story and immediately visualise the script as a manga, comic or screenplay with intuitive panel layouts. Writers and Artists unite, lets get that story out there. No AI. Just math. Mangaplay measures your text and lays out the page like a typesetter would, kinda sorta.

- STStory to Manga – Paste a story, get a mangaSep 2025 · storytomanga.com · ▲5
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…
- IMI made an app that turns your life memories into Manga2025 · ▲6

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…
- ATAI that uses image context to translate and redraw mangaOct 2025 · aifandom.app · ▲7
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…

With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
