## Prompt

```text
Please create a "{recipe_type}" using the character from the reference image, with a humorous and relaxed atmosphere.

Use the provided image only as a character reference. Do not reuse the composition, pose, background, camera angle, or layout of the original image.

The AI should freely devise the recipe content.

The cooking genre should be simple dishes within a realistic range, such as {cooking_genre}.

The overall screen should have the atmosphere of a Japanese online recipe article, a magazine bonus page, a casual personal blog, an SNS meme image, or a relaxed manga.

Structure: - Include multiple step-by-step panels - Put an SD/chibi version of the character in each step - Include reactions or small jokes during cooking - Include flustered faces, smug faces, a sense of messy work, small accidents, mysterious momentum, etc. - Include hand-drawn style arrows, notes, supplementary comments, and rough warnings - Make the layout slightly cluttered - Ensure high information density but keep it readable and organized.

Even if the presentation is gag-oriented, make the food look appetizing enough to make someone think, "Maybe I'll try making this."

At the bottom of the image, place a large main cut showing the finished dish.

Include a scene where the character themselves is eating the dish, with a speech bubble for their impressions.

The impressions should be surprisingly persuasive, silly, weirdly high-energy, but making one want to eat it.

Important: - Do not make the food look unappetizing - Do not go in the direction of high-end cuisine or formal restaurants - Do not use an overly clean minimal design - Do not make it a lifeless infographic - Emphasize manga-style reactions and a sense of daily life - Balance a relaxed atmosphere with practicality - Maintain the character's face and identity.
```
