Karasu v1.10.2
Pre-release
Pre-release
First Karasu release. Based on yokai 1.10.2 — everything below under "From yokai" is inherited from upstream.
Karasu
- Rebrand to Karasu (own
applicationId, icons, widgets) - KOReader shelf sync: push selected manga as CBZ to a self-hosted container, read back finished chapters, filter conditions
- Release calendar with schedule/interval and grace period per manga, plus missing-chapter detection
- Set a manga's release frequency by hand from its ⋮ menu when the measured one is wrong
- Fix a series that skipped a week being shown next week instead of today
- Fix several scanlators (or merged sources) posting the same chapter being counted as several releases, which made weekly series look stalled
- Finished series (completed, cancelled, licensed) no longer sit under "stalled"
- Merged sources on manga details
- Fix chapters read through a merged source missing from History and "continue reading"
- Merged sources now follow the manga through a source migration
- Merging a series that is already in the library as its own entry folds that entry in (categories kept)
- Per source: keep only as a fallback (no updates, no chapters listed), or make it the primary source
- Marking a chapter read also marks its other-language rows
- FlareSolverr support for Cloudflare bypass
- Disk caching for Coil images
- Chapter translation (OCR + ML Kit / OpenRouter)
- Translate a chapter without downloading it (pages go through the reader's image cache)
- Translations are cached per line, so re-translating and recurring lines cost no requests
- Per-manga translation notes (names, honorifics, terms) handed to the LLM engine
- Long-press a page → "Translated bubbles" to see the original text and correct a translation
- "Translate downloaded chapters" on the manga menu
- Fix the OpenRouter API key being written into backups
- Remove Firebase Crashlytics/Analytics (crash logs stay local: crash screen + "Dump crash logs")
- Remove Shikimori tracker
- Vendor FlexibleAdapter (JitPack no longer builds it)
