Sites for anime or series sub japanese? or other forms of immersion.
As for manga, I read manga using a Manga reader which allows me to look up words very easily with Yomichan: https://github.com/kha-white/mokuro. This also requires having the manga on your PC but I don't think there is any good alternative that is legal, so what I do is just to purchase the manga I like but still read them with the pirated version as it's so much more efficient.

Linux OCR and Text Hooking Tools
Then there is https://github.com/kha-white/mokuro for manga. You have to process the manga, which requires you to download it, but if you do it works wonders. Makes the entire thing selectable in your browser, so you can just hover over words and use 10ten or Yomichan or whatever it is you use.

Bilingual Manga and translators
I'd recommend using this: https://github.com/kha-white/mokuro This project has the same setup as bilingual manga, you can do this on any manga you want to read. It generates a web page from which you can read just like bilingual manga. I even transfer them onto my phone and read them that way. This does depend on your gpu though, so if you have a lot of manga you want to read and not a good gpu, I'd recommend using the colab link.

Hi everyone! I want to share my free open source project. ScanLingua is a chrome extension that can recognize, translate and annotate kanji from selected area. The app is still raw and buggy, but already usable, so I really want someone to try it :)
I really like mokuro. You don't have to select the text, it automatically detects it and makes textboxes for you to yomichan, that automatically appear when you hover.

Are there any extensions that let you look up words without having to copy and paste them into Jisho?
You’ll need to use an OCR program to get the text but otherwise yes. Here’s what I use https://github.com/kha-white/mokuro
