Assemble manga pages with panels, bubbles, and tategaki

Bring uploaded art or generated drafts onto a manga canvas. Split panels, clip artwork, place speech bubbles, and typeset vertical Japanese text. This is page assembly—not a story-to-manga generator. An account and credits are required.

Professional manga-making tools

Everything you need to compose panels, place dialogue, manage pages, and prepare a finished chapter.

Smart Panel System & Auto-Clipping

Drag, drop, and split panels instantly. Images dropped into panels are automatically masked and clipped to boundaries. Choose from B4, A4, or custom layouts.

1000+ Customizable Bubble Styles

SVG-based speech bubbles with fully adjustable tails, anchors, and shapes. Support for vertical text layout (tategaki) essential for manga.

Multi-Page Project Management

Don't just make one image—create entire chapters. Manage multiple pages, reorder them, and maintain consistent character styles across your entire story.

Workflow

From Idea to Manga Chapter

A professional workflow designed for storytellers, simplified for everyone.

1

Step 1: Choose Canvas & Layout

Start with a standard B4 or A4 manga page. Drag panel templates or draw a custom grid. Keep gutters even as you split and resize panels.

2

Step 2: Compose & Layer

Upload images into panels. Use the layer manager to organize backgrounds, characters, and effects. Nesting images inside panels automatically clips them.

3

Step 3: Lettering & Effects

Add speech bubbles with adjustable tails. Type dialogue in horizontal or vertical orientation. Add sound effects (SFX) to bring action to life.

Professional Layer Control

Lock, hide, and reorder elements with a full layer tree system. Perfect for complex compositions with overlapping characters and effects.

Three approved evidence cases

Audited manga delivery

See what was delivered, revised, and ready to read

These controlled LlamaGen runs publish the original input, full-resolution output, first-delivery result, revisions, final files, evidence hash, and known limitations. The full methodology lives on one canonical evidence page for each run.

Open any original image for a full-resolution check, download the finished sample, or follow the evidence link for the complete review trail.

A 2,150-word screenplay became a complete 12-page manuscript

The original screenplay was delivered as 12 landscape pages, 48 finished panels, six recurring characters, and downloadable PDF and CBZ files.

Panels

First delivery

16 recorded revision events across 15 panels; the final 12-page manuscript is retained for reading.

Known limitation

Dialogue uses a deterministic bottom text band instead of conventional speech balloons, and exact settled cost was not measured.

One requested panel changed while the rest of the pages stayed locked

A controlled request targeted page 7, panel 2. That panel was redrawn, the authored dialogue band was preserved, and decoded-pixel comparison found no changes outside the locked panel.

One requested modification produced a revised 12-page PDF and CBZ while every other page remained byte-for-byte unchanged.

Known limitation

This controlled case proves one scoped feedback cycle, not a long multi-round customer collaboration.

One chapter was composed as readable manga pages

A 993-word chapter and four recurring characters were laid out as paginated manga with finished PDF and CBZ downloads. Other reading formats live on their own product pages.

First review
36/36

Four early character references were replaced; all 36 story panels were retained without a story-panel redraw.

Known limitation

The formats were generated in separate runs rather than exported from one click, and dialogue is typeset in caption cards.

Each result reports one observed controlled run, not a guarantee for every story. Settled provider cost and active human review time were not captured unless a case explicitly says otherwise.

Page assembly vs drawing software
