A program that could detect the line and set the exact cropping specifications would be best, but does one even exist? GIMP's fuzzy select tool, which is similar to Photoshop's magic wand tool, could select the whole black area at the top and bottom so that you could delete just those parts.

Do you know of a way to create images that don’t add metadata, or an easier way to remove it? I do not.

Would you mind telling me the process of how to acquire the image to make a word mark for Gakuen Heaven? The best way would be to use GIMP's free selection tool and trace the outline of the logo. Then copy & paste it to a new image.

For removing sound effects, or other text overlaid on a background (and not speech bubbles) is that a manual task? Yes, it's very manual. Just removing the overlaid text (using either the fuzzy select tool or the free selection tool) wouldn't be hard, but you'd be left with text-shaped "holes" in the image that would have to be manually filled in.
