Turn Manga Into a Narrated Video With AI

Manga to Video turns a manga chapter into a narrated video. Paste a MangaDex chapter or series link, or drop in a CBZ, a PDF or a folder of scans, and the tool reads every page the way manga is meant to be read: right to left. It detects the reading direction from the pages themselves — Japanese sound effects drawn into the art, the first panel sitting top right — and orders both the panels and the speech bubbles inside them, so a translated manga does not come out backwards.

Each panel is held over a blurred, slowly moving copy of itself while a narrator tells the story, a cast performs the dialogue with one voice per character, or both. The narration can be written in English, Spanish, Portuguese or French whatever language the scans are in. Volume covers, the ISBN and price page, the table of contents, the author's inside-cover notes and magazine promotions are cut, so the video opens on the first page of chapter one.

A series link lists every chapter in reading order with duplicate scanlation uploads merged, so you can pick chapters one to three and get them as one video. You get an MP4, a subtitle file and a poster, in wide 16:9, tall 9:16 or square. It is an alternative to LlamaGen or revid for manga: rather than generating new animation, it narrates the manga you have, panel by panel.

Frequently asked questions

Will it read manga right to left?

Yes. The reading order is detected from the pages and set for both the panels and the bubbles inside them; you can also pick it yourself.

Can I use a MangaDex link?

Yes — a chapter link goes straight in, and a series link opens its chapter list in reading order so you choose which chapters to read.

What if the scans are in Japanese?

The narration is written in the language you choose; dialogue printed in another language is translated before it is voiced.

Does it animate the manga?

It keeps the original art: each panel is held on screen with a slow camera move over a blurred copy of itself, while the story is narrated and the dialogue performed.

How is this different from LlamaGen or revid?

Those generate new animated clips; this reads the manga you give it and narrates it faithfully, panel by panel, in the author's own words.
