How consistent are the models when it comes to characters?

I think this is really the biggest question. Background are often done by assistants, or pre-made, so today they are a concern mostly for more ambitious mangas. Charqcters are creating the biggest workload for the mangaka.

Also, for a battle manga it may be unfeasibly, since I just don't see AI doing good panel by panel action.

Likely a long while but we'll get gems from it

I love the AznMasculinity chinks so much :marseychingchongraginglove::marseychingchongraginglove::marseychingchongraginglove:

Yeah weird doujins like that is my hope mostly, it'll probably take a shitload of time feeding prompts to get proper images for every panel so some dedicated neurodivergent with zero skills in drawing is my best hope.

Whaddya mean? an explosion in AI-generated manga? I doubt it, Jxp artists have not been very happy with it, AI is just used for cheap coom material at least for now.

Yeah artists won't be but I imagine being able to draw is a massive filter, there might be some good writers publishing solo production doujins at least with AI.

I think it won't happen right away but eventually there will be some work that blows everyone away that's AI assisted, not AI made. After that there will be a horde of derivative works, followed by actually good content.

I don't think I've seen many good examples.

Each panel needs the character posed in a certain way, contorting facial expressions as well, to deliver a lot of context.

AI can do basic expressions and body positions right now, I'm an amateur so I guess better than I managed.

All 3 generated from 'looking grim'.

These images sort of explain the main problem with longform fully AI-generate comics right now. As a series of sample images they're clearly meant to be variations of the same image but if you tried to make a comic out of it people would immediately notice how her outfit, hairstyle, and the shape of the trident all randomly change between panels.

I've seen weirder stuff in art than inconsistent faces and clothes.

Is there no way to keep the basic model consistent? Seems like it should be possible to have that bit set and have the AI generate the rest.

I think the # of manga artists decreases because a single artist will be much more marginally productive, but since artists are only one input of a highly corporatized media, nothing really changes.

Independent artists might be able to make their panels quicker for an independent publication, but having more time doesn't necessarily mean they're more skilled at storytelling, web development, marketing or project management.

The art is not the limiting constraint for the supply of good manga.

Ok more seriously , i think it needs to get a little bit better for the minimalism manga style and then you need to make it more consisten, but yeah in 1 or 2 years we will have a lot of manga and manwha ai slop.

can't wait for politiccally incorrect chudmah's , dunking on jews and muslims :marseyexcited:

Probably when people are willing to invest enough time. Alternatively if the process is speed up.

With control nets, inpainting and loras you can probably do quite a lot already, but figuring out how that works will take quite some time. Haven't looked into it in quite some time, but multiple characters in the same image was a problem back then.

Hard to say. People have tried fully AI generated comics and current technology is simply not up to the task, but that doesn't mean things will stay that way.

Hi. Lanky Kong here :lankykongflatsphericalrotation: Well, this is my last post. It all has to come to this. Tomorrow is the day of retribution, the day in which I will have my retribution against ape kind, against all of you. For the last eight years of my life, ever since I hit puberty I have been forced to endure an existence of loneliness and unfulfilled desires all because chimpettes have never been attracted to me. Girl chimps gave their affection and s*x and love to other Kongs but never to me. I am 22 years old and still a virgin. I have never even been kissed by a chimp. I have been swinging through the jungle for two and a half years, more than that, and I am still a virgin. It has been very torturous. The jungle is the place where everyone experiences those things such as s*x and fun and pleasure and eating bananas, but in those years I have had to rot in loneliness. It's not fair. You chimpettes have never been attracted to me. I don't know why you chimpettes aren't attracted to me, but I will punish you all for it. It is an injustice, a crime, because I don't know what you don't see in me. I am the perfect Kong, I have incredible style and grace, I have beautiful, long arms, and I can inflate myself like a balloon, but yet, you throw yourselves at all these obnoxious monkeys :diddykongdance:, instead of me the supreme gentleape. I will punish all of you for it. On the day of retribution, I am going to climb the tallest tree on the island and I will throw coconuts at every single spoiled, stuck-up pony-tailed blonde chimp slut :dixiekongwalking: I see up there. All those chimpettes that I have desired so much, they would have all rejected me and looked at me as an inferior Kong if I ever made a sexual advance towards them. While they throw themselves at these obnoxious brutes :donkeykonghanging:, I will take great pleasure in pelting all of you. You will finally see that I am in truth the superior one, the true alpha orangutan :lankykong:. Yes, after I have annoyed every single girl from the tree, I will inflate myself like a balloon and take to the skies of Isla DK and slap every single ape I see from there with my long arms. All those popular Kongs who live such lives of hedonistic pleasure :diddykongboombox::dixiekongguitar: while I have had to rot in loneliness for all of these years, they have all looked down upon me every time I have tried to go out and join them. Now I shall look down upon them. They have all treated me like a mere monkey, but now, I will be a Gigantopithecus compared to you. We are all animals, you are animals and I will slap you like animals. I will be the King Kong, exacting my retribution on all those who deserve it, and you do deserve it just for the crime of living better life than me. All you popular Kongs you have never accepted me and now you will pay for it. Girl chimps, all I have ever wanted was to love you and to be loved by you. I wanted a girlfriend, I've wanted s*x, love, adoration, bananas but you think I am unworthy of it. That's a crime that can never be forgiven. If I can't have you, chimps, I will annoy you. You've denied me a happy life and in turn I will deny all of you a comfortable life. It is only fair. I hate all of you, apes are a disgusting retched, depraved species... uh, clade. Not species. Sorry. If I had it in my power I would stop at nothing to reduce every single one of you to mountains of bruised scalps and rivers of ape tears :donkeykongsad: and rightfully so. You deserve to be annoyed, and I will give that to you. You never showed me any mercy, so I will show you none. You forced me to suffer all my life and now I will make you all suffer. I have waited a long time for this, I will give you exactly what you deserve, all of you all you chimps who rejected me and looked down on me, treated me like scum while you gave yourselves to other apes. and all of you Kongs for living a better life than me. All of you sexually active Kongs, I hate you, I hate all of you. I can't wait to give you exactly what you deserve, utter humiliation :dixiekongsad:
