I believe the severe ghosting usually only happens when switching between pages of different size. This should be resolved by enabling 'Draw frame around images' to make all the images the same size.
Have you enabled fullscreen viewing (pressing F or menu option)? Also, disabling dithering should speed up page turning.
Mangle can't handle converting more than one manga at a time so I currently use Canti:
Canti doesn't have a graphical interface like Canti but it can handle cbz/cbr/images and a whole folder tree of the above. Probably the best reason to use this over Mangle is the option to automatically split two-page spreads into two individual pages. For small resolution devices like the K3, this makes text readable in two-page spreads, which appear often in manga.
Canti, by default, takes all the output images and packages it into a PDF. The only problem is that the kindle's PDf viewer lacks a full screen mode and thus the page is always smaller than desirable due to the forced margins. So now I just disable that option and view the images directly.
