What you can create

  • Generate one raster anime-style image from a text prompt, including original characters, scenes, and illustrated key art.
  • Direct character features, clothing, pose, expression, environment, framing, lighting, palette, atmosphere, and illustration treatment.
  • Choose among five text-to-image models and use only the aspect ratios each model supports.

What this workflow does not provide

  • This prompt-only page does not accept character references, uploads, pose images, ControlNet inputs, or LoRA files.
  • One result does not guarantee character consistency, correct anatomy, accurate lettering, or a match to a named character.
  • It does not automatically edit, upscale, remove a background, create video, or produce SVG or layered files.

Review the generated image

  • Check hands, anatomy, facial details, clothing, props, and scene continuity before publishing.
  • Proofread any generated lettering; Japanese text, manga lettering, and other text can be malformed or incorrect.
  • Keep the subject original and avoid copying a protected character, franchise, logo, or a living artist's signature style.

Run this workflow

Use the defaults as a starting point, then choose the model and settings that fit the actual image task.

Task guidance

Direct an original anime-style image

Concise character traits, clothing, pose, setting, camera framing, light, color, and atmosphere give the model a clearer visual direction.

Define the original subject

Describe a new character or scene in your own words. Avoid named franchise characters, copied mascots, logos, or a request to imitate a living artist.

Build the composition

Add pose, expression, environment, camera distance, lighting, palette, atmosphere, and an illustration treatment such as cel-shaded, clean line art, or softly painted backgrounds.

Review visual errors

Check anatomy, hands, facial details, props, and continuity. Proofread any generated text because lettering may be malformed or incorrect.
