im glad!! im still learning the quality will slowly improve :)
Thanks so much for bringing this story about a cute ghost back to life.. :thumbsup:

Regarding the typesetting quality, some general tips are to center align the text in the speech bubbles. If you need to split long words with a hyphen, try to avoid leaving one or two letters hanging on the next line or having only a single small word or two occupy an entire line by itself. Also when you are adding text that needs to break speech bubble boundaries to fit, adding a white-outline stroke to the text improves visibility. Some more tips here.

Thanks again!

Then I assume you know about GPT, Google Lens, Jisho, etc?

Brother, I know exactly what you mean. I recently ended up translating 直人 as "Normal people", not realizing it was MC's name, and it had 8 different readings as a name. 🤦‍♂️
