From a spark to a page
One clear creative path — with space to make the decisions that give your story its identity.
Describe a scene or bring a supported reference. Image, script and video uploads have different plan and length eligibility in the creator.
Pick a visual style, dialogue language, page proportions and chapter length. Add character notes to guide continuity.
Review the finished pages in the Mangaka reader, export where available, or open LlamaGen Studio for further edits.
Your story. Your aesthetic.
Set the visual direction before you create. The same story can call for very different artwork.
Expressive ink, contrast and dramatic framing.
Vivid color with manga-inspired storytelling.
Bold graphic-novel panels and energetic action.
Vertical scenes made for scrolling on a phone.
Style selection and reference-image eligibility may depend on your plan.
A cast, not a collection of random faces
A memorable manga needs people you recognize when you turn the page. Describe their defining traits, keep reference images close, and review each scene.

Original example: The Skybridge Signal — three consecutive reviewed pages from one composed chapter, not an unedited guarantee of every generation.

From the original idea to the pages you will share, Mangaka puts the important choices up front.
Begin with a one-line premise or a more detailed scene brief. The creator helps turn your direction into an illustrated sequence.
Text-first creation · supported references
Keep names, outfits and distinct visual traits in the brief. Reference-led workflows help with consistency, but every page still deserves a review.
Character descriptions · visual references
Choose a quick page or plan a longer project. Chapter count and page length are combined into one creation request, subject to your plan's project limits.

Good questions. Clear answers.
LlamaGen has a $0 Free plan for eligible first-page experiments. You must sign in to generate, credits and eligibility are checked by the server, and multi-page planning or some references require a paid plan. Free does not mean unlimited chapters.
The Mangaka creator supports a text prompt and eligible reference uploads. It accepts images, scripts and videos, but script/video upload is currently for Quick creation; longer page planning supports text and image references. Multiple attachments or certain reference flows may require a paid plan.
The creator offers Quick (1 page), Short (20), Medium (30) and Long (40) page presets per chapter, with a chapter selector up to 30. These are input choices, not a promise that every combination can run. The server enforces your plan's total project limits and calculates the credits before accepting generation.
Character descriptions and reference images can improve continuity, but generated faces, outfits, text and panels can still vary. Review successive pages and use available editing tools when something needs correction.
The Mangaka experience includes an original-story reader and a reader for completed creations. It supports vertical or horizontal reading, sharing and PDF export; your account and content permissions still apply. You can open the existing Studio to revise a generated artwork.
The creator includes black-and-white manga, color manga, comics and webtoon styles, alongside a dialogue language selector with English, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Spanish, French, German and other options. Always check the generated lettering before publishing.
