Would it be possible to inject comics? If so, could you provide a guide on how to do it. Because I've been looking for a good comic reader on my 3ds for quite some time now, and this sounds like just what I need.

Yep, you can inject comics, photos, whatever you want...
For now, you can only inject one comic in the app. How do this?
Download this manga reader (search on that iso site nisekoi volume 1 for example), because this reader is france and japan exclusivity. Download Braindump and use it in order to extract the content of the manga reader. Then, extract the cxi file, and in it, you will see a folder called "9782820310460". Is there the manga is stored. You can change the images in the "images" folder, but you have to respect the size, the name, and the number of images injected (if you want to use a different resolution, number, etc, you have to change the data in the .opf files, etc...).
Once you have injected the new images, you can rebuild the romfs, and launch it with Hans...
So yeah, it's a little complicate to inject manga... If you really want to read manga on your 3DS, use instead MangaReader, https://gbatemp.net/threads/release-manga-reader.399276/ (but it doesn't support zoom out feature at this time).

Would it also be possible to repack it as a cia? And finally, what is the format the images must be in?

Got it. (BTW on the top of the file is a header in japanese. I put it through Google Translate, and this is the blind idiot translation:
Code:
LID, publisher management number, BOX title name, title (Kana), title name + winding / story name, subtitle name, winding / story number, author, author (Kana), copyright, published magazines, comic label, publisher , genre, color (0: Black and White, 1: color), sales price, delivery date, sale end date, work testimonials (short), work testimonials, 3DS cartoon content file name, BOX icon file name, BOX background file name , single tube cover icon (color), single-tube cover icon (monochrome), illustrations for comic Prof, single-turn cover icon for Recommended (color), group ID, data title unique ID, variation (hexadecimal), content index, opf type (0: Shueisha (OMF), 1: Kadokawa Shoten (FL), 2: Sukueni (EPUB2)), New (0: Delivered, 1: New), recommended (0: not a recommended, 1: recommended), distribution end (0: Delivery, 1: end, 2: Disable), commodity abbreviation + winding / story name

Looks like an explanation on how the file must be setup?

Ok guys, good news.
Me and Cellenseres managed to edit CTPK and rebuild their formats from CTPK and ARCV files.

What does this mean?

A perfect injection!

All can be edited and translated!
Synopsis, background, translation from french to english...
Stay tuned, I will write the tutorial very soon!

Hi

How good is manga reading on 3DS ?

I currently use a 5.5in phone to read scans. Could be the 3DS manga reading better ?

Honestly, it's not a problem.
It's easy and very comfortable.
Even on my Galaxy Note 2, I read my Nisekoi scans without even the need to zoom.

Will the tutorial also include how to translate the UI? Also, did you figure out how to insert multiple manga in one injection?

Of course I will say how to translate the UI.
But you will need your own font, since it's png, not a "brut text"

Multiple Volume injection is the only thing on the TODO list
