Nem-S is a dedicated software designed specifically for creating manga names (storyboards). Developed by an active manga artist based on real-world studio experience, this utility-focused tool eliminates the friction and lag in the storyboarding process. [Key Features of a Dedicated Storyboard Tool] All-Page Overview & Two-Page Spread Editing Manage all your pages seamlessly on a single screen without having to constantly switch tabs. Review the rhythm and flow of your story instantly without the stress of navigating back and forth. Supports multi-column grid adjustments as well as smooth page insertion, deletion, and reordering. Text Editing Features text layer management triggered by line breaks. The software automatically splits text into layers or separate pages based on where you break lines, making it highly efficient to adjust dialogue across multiple pages. Export Options (PSD / PNG / PDF) Exported images and text can be easily imported into drawing software like CLIP STUDIO PAINT, ensuring a smooth transition to the next step of production. Script Editor Manage dialogue and character names within a hierarchical scene/panel structure. Reflections made in the script can be applied directly to the storyboard, allowing you to seamlessly move between organizing your plot and drafting your art.

Creators who want to adjust text while keeping an eye on the flow of the entire manuscript. Creators looking to manage everything from script to storyboard in a single workflow.
