What it does
Upload a photograph and it repaints it as a gentle anime-style illustration, keeping the composition and the arrangement of people while changing the rendering. No prompt needed. It rests on FLUX.1 dev, which is non-commercial, so output cannot be used for paid work - and separately, imitating a particular studio's look commercially, or publishing results in a way that suggests official origin, invites trouble. Keep it personal.
