KanjiLens is a Japanese manga translator and learning tool designed specifically for online Japanese manga websites. It removes friction and keeps learners in the flow of the story rather than lost in a dictionary, allowing users to learn Japanese intuitively while reading their favorite manga.

The tool scans manga panels and overlays translations, readings, meanings, and furigana directly on the page. It features instant kanji lookup by hovering over any kanji to see its reading and meaning, one-click image translation using OCR technology to translate text within manga panels and other images, and an integrated spaced repetition system (SRS) that helps users remember kanji for the long term by saving new words to personalized flashcard decks.

KanjiLens works through OCR-powered scanning technology that extracts Japanese text from manga panels. It overlays translations, readings, meanings, and furigana directly on the page, maintaining immersion while providing learning support.

The primary benefit is enabling learners to follow manga stories without breaking immersion while simultaneously learning Japanese. It's designed specifically for reading manga online, making raw manga accessible through seamless translation and learning features.

KanjiLens targets Japanese language learners who want to improve their skills through reading manga. It's available as a browser extension and integrates with online manga websites.
