I can resize part of a drawing in Medibang Paint but figuring this out in the app took me a while to figure out. So I wanted to share how to do that using the lasso tool.
I'm on my pencil layer in Medibang Paint and I have a pencil drawing of my character on the page.
But I realized something. I drew it too big. If I put some text in there, there's not really going to be a lot of room for it. So how can I remedy that?

I, of course, could draw it again. But let's use one of the tools just to show what else I can do.
Turning on the lasso tool
There is a lasso tool in the top menu.
I can select a square or circle, or I have a freehand option.
Selecting part of a drawing with the lasso tool
With the lasso freehand tool, I draw around the part of the drawing I want to resize and it selects that area.
Lasso tool "Zoom in/Zoom out" option
All of the options for what you can do with the area selected by the lasso tool are down at the bottom menu for some reason. I can go down to this other lasso tool menu and select the "Zoom In/Zoom Out" option.
Now I have a resize box around what I selected, and I can resize this drawing to be a little bit smaller so I can fit some text in there if I need to.
When I'm done resizing it I hit the "Set" button at the bottom and it goes back to the lasso outline. I deselect the lasso at the top and now my pencil drawing is resized. Now I can start drawing again.
