MangaCut is the fastest way to animate manga on your phone. Built for AMV and manga edit creators who are tired of cutting body parts by hand in CapCut or Alight Motion. THREE STEPS, ONE APP MASK. Import a panel and let on-device AI detect body parts instantly. Refine with lasso, brush, exclude mode and fill. Repaint hidden areas directly in the app, with a one-tap green screen to check your edges. RIG. Build a skeleton: set pivots, link parts as parent and child, reorder layers. Move the torso and the arms follow, so you never adjust every part on every keyframe again. ANIMATE. Multi-track timeline with keyframes, presets and a custom velocity graph with overshoot. Bend limbs along curves, sculpt shapes with the liquify brush, and add realistic wind to hair and clothes. You choose where the wind starts and how strong it blows. EXPORT ANYWHERE Render MP4 in 9:16, 16:9, 1:1 or the original size, with your own audio track, ready for TikTok, Shorts and Reels. MADE FOR MANGA • Segmentation runs on your device: your panels never leave your phone. • Snapping timeline, copy and paste keyframes, undo everywhere. • Free to use. Effects like wind and liquify unlock by watching a short ad, or go ad-free with MangaCut Pro. Questions? Our Discord and the in-app tutorial chapters walk you through every step.
