Many good foreign comics don’t have Chinese translations, making them not so easy to read. This post recommends a fairly useful one. Chrome Extension: “Manga Translation – Manga Translator | Manga Tracker” lets you translate foreign languages in manga with one click, using… AI Translate into Traditional Chinese, directly replacing the text on the comics. Also offers screenshot and manual comic upload modes, supporting over 100 languages.
Introduction to a free Chrome extension for comic translation – never worry about not understanding foreign comics again.
“Manga Translator – Manga Translation | Manga Tracker” is an extension that automatically recognizes text in manga, Korean manhwa, or any manga image and instantly translates it, completing the translation in just 2–5 seconds. It also boasts that whether it’s Japanese manga or Korean manhwa, translation can be done within seconds without needing to download or set up anything extra.
支援的網站非常多，官方表示超過 100 多個熱門漫畫／動畫／漫畫平台。不過要注意是，這款不是完全免費的工具，使用時需註冊帳號，每日提供 20 點免費額度，每翻譯一次扣 1 點。

After waiting a few seconds, you’ll see the original foreign-language content turn into Traditional Chinese. However, it still makes mistakes sometimes—like in this comic panel I translated, where an unknown Traditional Chinese character appears in the middle of the lower half:

If you’re too lazy to manually translate every page, “漫畫翻譯 – 漫畫翻譯器 | 漫畫追蹤器” also offers an auto-translation feature. It’s located at the bottom right corner of the small icon. Once enabled, the next image will be translated automatically. However, since it’s automatic, it may consume more usage credits, so it’s not really recommended.

After translating some images, remember to click the refresh icon next to your account so your daily quota updates.

As for translation quality, I think it’s pretty good—better than Google Translate and Microsoft Translate. As for the paid version, only the highest tier offers unlimited quota; the others still have monthly quota limits. Those interested should take note.
