# About TokiMake TokiMake is an AI Vertical Comic Creation Platform that brings novels and ideas to life as vertical-scroll comics. From character design and scenarios to artwork and publication, the entire creation process happens in a single studio. Build your work, meet your readers, and step toward your professional debut. Your journey as a creator starts here. ## The six features of TokiMake ### 1. Your novel, becoming a vertical-scroll comic Turn your existing novel into a vertical-scroll comic, just as it is. If you already have a novel, you can begin simply by importing the text. With around five chapters or more as a guideline, character extraction and artwork can proceed smoothly from there. If you have an idea but haven't written it yet, you can also start from a story outline. Build out your protagonist, synopsis, ending, and key milestones in five steps, and TokiMake supports the rest—from character design through scenario and artwork. Whichever path you take, what you receive in the end is a vertical-scroll comic of your own story. ### 2. Consistent character design In vertical-scroll comics, when a character's face or outfit drifts from chapter to chapter, it breaks the reader's immersion. TokiMake references the character designs and settings you defined at the start throughout the artwork process, helping reduce drift while you create. When something doesn't match what you imagined, you can adjust it just by typing instructions. Tell us "make the hair longer" or "change the outfit to a school uniform" in plain language, and refine the result as many times as you need. As your story grows and new characters become necessary, they are automatically extracted from your source material and given a visual. ### 3. Build your own art style Choose an art style that fits your work, on your own terms. TokiMake offers a variety of art styles you can combine to create one that's uniquely yours. From dense and weighty to light and easy to read, choose what fits the genre and atmosphere of your story. Ratings can also be set per work. Decide the world your story lives in, starting from how it looks. ### 4. Refine every single panel The single panel is the heart of vertical-scroll comics—and TokiMake lets you refine it until you're satisfied. In the artwork screen, you can adjust each panel in detail. Dialogue phrasing, speech bubble placement, the panel image itself, and the background can all be edited independently. When you want to change the overall direction of the artwork, edit the "art prompt" to regenerate the visible range as a whole. When you want to fix just one panel or one line of dialogue, pinpoint adjustments are also available. For climaxes and key moments, all the adjustments you need to deliver the perfect panel are at hand. ### 5. Publish your work and become a creator Once your work is complete, you can serialize and publish it on TokiMake. Episodes with completed artwork can be published from the serialization management screen, along with a title, synopsis, cover image, and genre. Your work reaches TokiMake's readers, and you become a creator with an audience of your own. We draw to be read. The presence of readers is the strongest reason to keep creating. TokiMake is where you meet your readers as a creator. ### 6. From contest to professional debut (coming soon) The work you draw can become the start of your professional debut. We are preparing a path to professional debut through regularly held contests. Continuing to draw on TokiMake means taking your first steps toward debut. {% hint style="info" %} This section reflects future plans.
