Manga and webtoon scripts
When to use
Use for original visual storytelling, prose-to-comic adaptation, page planning, or revising panel pacing.
Inputs and assumptions
Confirm manga versus webtoon, reading direction, page or episode budget, audience, dialogue language, and whether the requested output is a script, storyboard, or optional image-prompt draft.
Portable workflow
- Read the manga and webtoon sections of format guidance.
- Identify the emotional and causal sequence before distributing it across panels.
- Give each page or scroll segment a purpose. Reserve reveals and quiet beats deliberately.
- Describe one drawable moment per panel with subject, action or expression, framing when useful, dialogue, captions, and sound effects.
- Convert interior monologue into visible behavior or sparse captions where possible. Do not discard essential internal conflict merely to reduce text.
- Check spatial continuity, character positions, speech order, dialogue density, and transitions between panels.
- Save a new script or storyboard. Keep art style separate from narrative tone and reading format.
Safety and side effects
This skill does not render images. Do not call image/video services, reuse protected characters without an appropriate request, or incur generation costs automatically. Preserve adaptation sources.
Scripts, references, and dependencies
No image backend required. The project workflow explains project and checkpoint handling.
Verification
Count pages or scroll segments against the requested budget. Check that each panel is drawable and readable, that dialogue fits the intended layout, and that reveals work in the chosen reading direction.
Pi adapter
Use /writer new book "The Last Train" --format manga or /writer adapt --format manga --target "chapters/chapter-0001.md". Choose webtoon for vertical scrolling.
