## Prompt

```text
Goal: Create a soft watercolor-style vertical 4-panel diary manga about struggling to learn a new AI manga tool, with cute anxious humor and handwritten Japanese text.

Canvas: Portrait page, warm off-white paper texture, thin brown hand-drawn border around the whole page and around each of the 4 horizontal panels. Gentle beige shadows, pastel colors, small pink cherry blossom petals scattered throughout.

Main character: A chibi creator with {hair_color}, large amber eyes, a round face, tiny body, and a simple loose blue outfit. The character appears exactly 5 times across the comic: curious beside a tablet in panel 1, worried while pressing a generate button in panel 2, panicking at a signpost in panel 3, collapsed face-down on a desk in panel 4, and as a small thumbnail in the generated-results UI in panel 2.

Panel 1: On the left, show a tilted tablet or monitor displaying the Anifusion interface with exactly 3 selectable menu items labeled in Japanese: 「画像」, 「ページ」, 「レイヤー」. The main preview area contains a large question mark. On the right, the chibi character looks at the screen with uncertainty. Add a speech bubble reading: 「新ツール『Anifusion』に挑戦！……で、画像・ページ・レイヤーってどれから触るの？」 Include a tiny sparkle near the character.

Panel 2: Show a close-up of the tool interface labeled 「生成結果」. It contains exactly 3 result cards: a blank dashed frame labeled 「フレーム欠損」, a cute pink-haired character image labeled 「服が違う」, and a strange green monster labeled 「意味不明」. Beneath them, show a credit meter with exactly 5 filled coin circles and 5 empty dotted circles, plus a large blue button labeled 「生成」 being clicked by the character. The main chibi character is seen from behind/right side, sweating. Add a speech bubble reading: 「あれ？なんか違う…」 and a small side note reading: 「容赦なく溶けていくクレジット。」

Panel 3: The chibi character stands in the center with spiral eyes, raised hands, sweat drops, and panic symbols above the head. On the left, a wooden sign arrow points left and reads 「NanobananaPro」 with a small banana drawing. On the right, a wooden sign points right and reads 「GPT Image 2 Low」 with tiny star decorations. Add a speech bubble reading: 「モデル変える？タイミングはいつ!? これ、完成する気がしないよ〜！」

Panel 4: A desk scene showing the exhausted chibi collapsed face-down in the center, only pink hair and blue outfit visible. On the left side of the desk, include exactly 3 snack/drink items: a pink mug with a flower, a small plate of potato chips, and an orange snack bag labeled 「ポテチ」. On the right, show a tablet or monitor with exactly 2 sticky notes: 「まずは小さく」 and 「1ページずつ！」. Also include a small potted plant and exactly 2 stacked notebooks, the top one labeled 「メモ」. Above the character, add a pale ghost-like sigh symbol. Add lesson text at upper left: 「教訓：分からないまま作ると、完成の前に『気力』と『クレジット』が尽きる。」 Add a speech bubble near the mug reading: 「明日はまず1ページに絞ろう…」

Visual style: Japanese kawaii diary manga, hand-painted watercolor, soft ink outlines, rounded forms, muted pastel palette, cozy handmade feel, slightly imperfect handwritten text, expressive chibi emotions, no harsh digital gradients.

Constraints: Use exactly 4 horizontal comic panels and the exact counted elements listed above. Keep all text legible and handwritten in Japanese where specified. Do not add extra panels, extra characters, logos, watermarks, or unrelated UI elements.
