SickZil-Machine VS Poricom

And also, SickZil Machine needs a powerful PC

Btw, I am looking into AI-based text OCR/removal/replacement software for faster TS, similar to this. Any recommendations, plz let me know. Thanks.

MangaOCR on github is really good. There are two main gui of it that i know of. The first is a whole gui reader of it and is called poricom. The second lets you ocr anything on the screen when pressing alt+q and is called cloe. Here are the links : https://github.com/kha-white/manga-ocr https://github.com/blueaxis/Poricom https://github.com/blueaxis/Cloe

Poricom

mokuro if you want to preprocess your manga and then have all text be scannable, Poricom if you want a reader program that uses OCR.

Poricom is probably what you could be happy with. Download the program, launch it, and when asked whether to import the "manga-ocr model", say yes. It will download it for the first time, and whenever you start the program, you'll have to click "yes" again so it uses that model.

Reading manga is a little more involved - you can't use Yomichan on them due to the text not being actual text, but an image of text. You can turn them into text by using an OCR program, like manga-ocr. If using the command line is too scary for you, check out Poricom, which runs on manga-ocr, but also has a user interface. You can even combine this with a texthooker to automatically paste text you scan from a manga to an empty page, where you can then Yomichan it.

For text that is only available as a PDF or image format - like Manga - an OCR tool is what you want. I found manga-ocr to be the most accurate one by far. If installing Python stuff is scary for you, consider Poricom instead, which is a desktop application using manga-ocr. You can then go a step further and combine either tool with texthooking so you can use Yomichan on the text you OCR'd instead of needing to manually paste into a dictionary.
