Which translator do YOU use? 👀

[Yara010]

Luna, it's pretty good

 

[a4015]

I mainly use the Luna translator. Or sometimes I use Papago. It has pretty good text recognition.

 

[h4kusa]

I am mostly using my brain, but I use Papago image translate on my phone whenever I run into difficult words.

 

[bleood]

Luna ^^

 

[mahouaya]

I'm studying Japanese so my tools are basically me + Luna Translator + Jisho

 

[Zoeee]

I'm using the LunaTranslator tool with large language model translation APIs, and the translation quality is good

My journey was straight from AGTH and Atlas to LLM, due to a long pause. And oh boy, it's def a gamechanger.)

 

[Cove]

I haven't really messed around with a lot, but I've been using LunaTranslator for a good while and it's been working! If there are better translators out there I'd love to see any suggestions.

 

[amonholic]

I use Luna mainly because I don't know any other translator out there, and because it's frequently recommended within the vn community.

 

[SweetTranq]

I'm using LunaTranslator. I've studied some Japanese on my own, and Luna helps me understand most Japanese games. If something still doesn't read smoothly, I'll look it up myself using a translation tool. Using the translation optimization option to fix certain game-specific terms makes the translations much more accurate.

Luna translator!

 

[Riou1]

Textractor + outside translation tools.

Finally managed to make Luna work, now I'll be using that.

 

[Lilia16]

I use LunaTranslator

 

[Blind]

Initially, we used VNR, and subsequently, we employed Luna, ETFR, PandaOCR, and Textractor
Currently, DangoTranslator is still the most frequently used one
To be honest, when I first didn't know about OBS, I played Japanese Switch games and tried to translate them using Google Camera on my phone throughout the entire process

[Yashalun]

I use several methods. The first time I used Visual Novel Reader; I didn't know what to do, but somehow I made it work. However, its translation was poor, so I decided to pause for a while until better tools came out. After that, I used Capture2Text briefly (only for games that were in English), and then I made the leap to Textractor (or ITHVN) + Sugoi (DeepL). After that, I switched to Luna + DeepL, and later I'll try LLM (Gemma 3.0). But I'm learning Japanese little by little (it's already helped me when the translator hasn't even translated it), so in general, I use all those tools depending on the situation (except Visual Novel Reader).

 

[TEdtY33]

Luna

[whatever143]

Luna+1,works very well for me.

 

[oynaka]

I used AGTH before, and then Textractor. I tried to study Japanese for a long time and got N3 in JLPT but I'm still not good in Kanji and gramma.
Maybe I'll try Luna. I just heard about this one.
Thank you every one here in this thread. ^^

Lunatranslator for pc and Translate on Screen app for Android

Luna Translator is definitely the first choice! I used to mess around with VNR—it worked at first, but just a slight change to the settings would break it again.
