Thousands ask this about Perchance AI Chat, and most online answers are wrong. This guide fixes that. Based on platform testing and r\/perchance community knowledge, it covers everything from your first chat to advanced JavaScript tweaks \u2014 filling the gap left by zero official documentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Is_Perchance_AI_Chat\"><\/span>What Is Perchance AI Chat?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Perchance AI Chat is a browser-based AI roleplay platform on perchance.org offering unlimited character conversations with no sign-up required. It charges nothing, stores no data on servers, and applies no blanket content restrictions. When users search &#8220;ai perchance chat&#8221; or &#8220;per chance ai,&#8221; they almost always mean these AI-powered roleplay tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Perchance AI Chat Actually Works<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Everything runs in your browser. Conversations persist through localStorage \u2014 nothing reaches remote servers. The text AI is believed to be a distilled DeepSeek R1 variant on LLaMa architecture with roughly an 8K token context window. Image generation uses Flux.1 Schnell (Chroma Radiant variant).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Perchance Ecosystem \u2014 AI Chat, AI Character Chat, and Beyond<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Perchance.org hosts several AI tools:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>ai-chat<\/strong>: Basic two-character conversations<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>ai-character-chat (ACC)<\/strong>: The feature-rich flagship with image generation, custom characters, and lorebooks \u2014 what most people mean by &#8220;perchance ai chat&#8221;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>ai-rpg<\/strong>: AI Dungeon-style text adventure with an AI Game Master<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>story-ai<\/strong>: Paragraph-by-paragraph fiction generator<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Community activity and fork development center on ACC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is Perchance AI Chat Really Free? No Catch Explained<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A Reddit thread asking &#8220;How Is Perchance AI Affording This?&#8221; earned 87 upvotes. The answer: ad revenue, developer subsidization, efficient models like Flux Schnell, and near-zero overhead from not storing chats server-side. No premium tier, no credits, no hidden upsell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Perchance_AI_Character_Chat_Guide_%E2%80%94_Getting_Started\"><\/span>Perchance AI Character Chat Guide \u2014 Getting Started<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Getting into Perchance AI Chat takes under a minute \u2014 no email, password, or credit card needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Your First Chat in 60 Seconds (Step-by-Step)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Visit <strong>perchance.org\/ai-character-chat<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click &#8220;Generate characters&#8221; or pick a pre-made character<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Type your message and hit send<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>You&#8217;ll see a scenario field, lore panel, and character description area, but none need editing for a basic chat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Creating Your First Custom Character<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Provide a name, personality traits, backstory, speaking style, and a scenario.

No existing guide covers this landscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">AI Character Chat (ACC) \u2014 The Official Base Version<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The standard version includes character creation, Flux Schnell image generation, share links, and localStorage persistence. Stable but slower on feature updates than community forks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Petrafied ACC \u2014 The Community Favorite<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The most recommended fork on Reddit, Petrafied ACC adds a browse gallery for pre-made characters and an enhanced UI. Widely considered the best all-around choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">NACG (New AI Chat Gen) \u2014 Built for the Post-September 2025 Era<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Born after a September 2025 model update broke prompt adherence, NACG introduced a Main Prompt Template editor, creativity slider, emdash fix, and improved summarization. Users say it shipped &#8220;more fixes in two months than ACC in two years.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">URV AI Chat \u2014 Best UI and Multi-Model Support<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>URV offers the cleanest interface, Pollinations API model switching, and external API key integration. It can even interpret uploaded images via mini-DeepSeek. Trade-off: weaker creative writing and an aggressive default persona.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">TPS Group Chat \u2014 Multi-Character Conversations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The only fork where AI characters converse with each other autonomously \u2014 essential for group roleplay scenarios.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Quick Comparison Table \u2014 All Forks at a Glance<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td>Fork<\/td><td>Best For<\/td><td>Key Feature<\/td><td>Lorebook<\/td><td>Image Gen<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>ACC (Official)<\/td><td>Stability<\/td><td>Official maintenance<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Petrafied ACC<\/td><td>All-around use<\/td><td>Browse gallery<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>NACG<\/td><td>Post-update fixes<\/td><td>MPT editor, creativity slider<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>URV AI<\/td><td>UI &amp; model flexibility<\/td><td>Multi-model API support<\/td><td>Limited<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>TPS Group Chat<\/td><td>Group roleplay<\/td><td>Autonomous multi-character<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Key_Features_That_Make_Perchance_AI_Chat_Stand_Out\"><\/span>Key Features That Make Perchance AI Chat Stand Out<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Truly Free \u2014 No Credits, No Paywalls, No Login Required<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Every major competitor charges something \u2014 Character.AI has c.ai+ subscriptions, JanitorAI locks features behind premium, SpicyChat charges for extended access. <a href=\"https:\/\/aiimagetovideo.pro\/blog\/perchance-image-to-video\/\">Perchance charges<\/a> nothing. When a YouTuber claimed hidden costs, community top comments (41, 38, 23 likes) all called it false.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">In-Chat Image Generation With Flux Schnell<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The AI generates contextual images mid-conversation using Flux.1 Schnell. Refine results with the &#8220;Image generation prompt starter\/ending&#8221; fields. The standalone ai-text-to-image-generator offers more control, but in-chat generation keeps narrative flow intact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Browser-Only Storage for Maximum Privacy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>All conversations exist solely in your browser&#8217;s localStorage \u2014 no server logs, no accounts, no data collection. The community calls it &#8220;the most private AI chat option available.&#8221; The flip side: clearing your cache permanently destroys everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Customizable Content Filters and NSFW Settings<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of blanket censorship \u2014 the top reason users leave Character.AI \u2014 Perchance provides adjustable content restrictions. Parental oversight is recommended for younger users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Advanced_Tips_%E2%80%94_Prompt_Engineering_and_Customization\"><\/span>Advanced Tips \u2014 Prompt Engineering and Customization<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Writing Better Character Descriptions That the AI Actually Follows<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Use specific behavioral instructions, not vague traits. Include speaking style samples, define relationships explicitly, and add &#8220;DO NOT&#8221; directives (e.g., &#8220;Do NOT speak for the user&#8221;). After major plot events, manually update character descriptions to preserve continuity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Using Lorebooks for Persistent World Memory<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Lorebooks give the AI persistent reference material beyond the context window. Create entries for key facts, backstories, and plot points the AI can reference after older messages drop off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">System Prompt Recipes From the Community<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Tested templates from Reddit (57 upvotes) include strict third-person narration, day\/night cycle temporal drives, non-resolution endings to prevent scene-rushing, and &#8220;Break Bad Patterns&#8221; anti-repetition directives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">JavaScript Customizations for Power Users<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Via the settings gear icon, inject custom JavaScript. Popular scripts include word-ban code filtering overused phrases (&#8220;ozone,&#8221; &#8220;white knuckles&#8221;) and timestamp injection giving the AI awareness of gaps between messages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Getting Photorealistic Images Instead of Anime Defaults<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The default model skews toward anime. For realism, add &#8220;Kodak Portra 400, photojournalistic photography, raw photo&#8221; to image prompt starter, put &#8220;anime, cartoon, illustration&#8221; in the negative prompt, and set guidance to ~8.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"490\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gstory.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/perchance-ai-chat-1024x490.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2272\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gstory.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/perchance-ai-chat-1024x490.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.gstory.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/perchance-ai-chat-300x144.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.gstory.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/perchance-ai-chat-768x367.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.gstory.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/perchance-ai-chat-1536x735.webp 1536w, https:\/\/www.gstory.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/perchance-ai-chat.webp 1917w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Perchance_AI_Chat_vs_Competitors_%E2%80%94_2026_Comparison\"><\/span>Perchance AI Chat vs. Competitors \u2014 2026 Comparison<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Perchance AI Chat vs. Character.AI<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Character.AI has more users, a mobile app, and voice chat. But strict content filters are the top reason users migrate to Perchance. It also requires an account and throttles free users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Perchance AI Chat vs. ChatGPT for Roleplay<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>ChatGPT handles factual queries well but isn&#8217;t built for sustained roleplay. Perchance offers dedicated character cards, persistent scenarios, and in-chat image generation \u2014 all free versus ChatGPT&#8217;s $20\/month Plus tier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Perchance AI Chat vs. JanitorAI, SpicyChat, and Candy AI<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>JanitorAI requires an account. SpicyChat has a 2.1\/5 Trustpilot score. Candy AI locks features behind payment. Perchance remains the only fully free, no-account option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Full Comparison Table<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td>Feature<\/td><td>Perchance<\/td><td>Character.AI<\/td><td>ChatGPT<\/td><td>JanitorAI<\/td><td>SpicyChat<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Price<\/td><td>Free<\/td><td>Freemium<\/td><td>$20\/mo+<\/td><td>Freemium<\/td><td>Freemium<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Account Required<\/td><td>No<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Content Filters<\/td><td>Adjustable<\/td><td>Strict<\/td><td>Moderate<\/td><td>Moderate<\/td><td>Minimal<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Image Generation<\/td><td>Yes (Flux)<\/td><td>No<\/td><td>Yes (DALL-E)<\/td><td>No<\/td><td>No<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Privacy Model<\/td><td>Local only<\/td><td>Server-stored<\/td><td>Server-stored<\/td><td>Server-stored<\/td><td>Server-stored<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Troubleshooting_Common_Perchance_AI_Chat_Issues\"><\/span>Troubleshooting Common Perchance AI Chat Issues<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">AI Forgetting Context After 10 Messages<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The ~8K token context window causes older messages to drop off. Use lorebooks for essential facts, update character descriptions after key events, keep messages concise, and try NACG&#8217;s improved summarization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Repetitive Language and the &#8220;Ozone Problem&#8221;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The AI obsessively reuses certain atmospheric words. JavaScript word-ban scripts help, though they occasionally block legitimate uses too. Adding &#8220;Break Bad Patterns&#8221; to your system prompt and NACG&#8217;s built-in emdash fix both reduce repetition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Image Style Defaulting to Anime<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Add photography terms to image prompt starter and anime-related styles to your negative prompt. Set guidance to 8.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Silent Chat Data Loss \u2014 Prevention and Backup<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>LocalStorage silently removes entries beyond ~80 recent chats without warning. One user lost over 1,000 conversations. Perform regular full exports and rotate backup files.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">VPN Blocking During Ad Verification<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some VPN IPs get blocked during ad verification. Switch to a different server location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Creative_Use_Cases_Beyond_Roleplay\"><\/span>Creative Use Cases Beyond Roleplay<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">D&amp;D and Tabletop RPG Tools<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The ai-rpg tool works as an AI Game Master, while random generators produce NPCs, loot tables, and encounters. A YouTube RPG tutorial drew over 34,000 views, showing strong tabletop demand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Creative Writing and Interactive Storytelling<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The story-ai generator supports paragraph-by-paragraph fiction with user-guided direction \u2014 suited for collaborative novels, fan fiction, and interactive narratives. Creators wanting to turn AI-generated images into video can explore tools like <a href=\"https:\/\/aiimagetovideo.pro\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">AI Image to Video<\/a> for converting static outputs into short-form content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Social Skills Practice and Therapeutic Use<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Users report using Perchance for anxiety pre-visualization, social skills practice, language immersion, and journaling through character dialogue. A Reddit thread from a teenager using ACC for comfort chats sparked supportive discussion about healthy AI interaction boundaries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Game Development and NPC Testing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Developers prototype NPC dialogue in Perchance before coding it into game engines \u2014 useful for testing personality consistency and response variety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQs_About_Perchance_AI_Chat\"><\/span>FAQs About Perchance AI Chat<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is Perchance AI Chat really free?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes \u2014 no paid tiers, credits, or subscriptions. Funded by ads and developer contributions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is Perchance AI Chat safe and private?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Chats live only in your browser&#8217;s localStorage \u2014 no server logs or account data.

Thousands ask this about Perchance AI Chat, and most online answers are wrong. This guide fixes that. Based on platform testing and r\/perchance community knowledge, it covers everything from your first chat to advanced JavaScript tweaks \u2014 filling the gap left by zero official documentation. What Is Perchance AI Chat? Perchance AI Chat is a browser-based AI roleplay platform on perchance.org offering unlimited character conversations with no sign-up required. It charges nothing, stores no data on servers, and applies no blanket content restrictions. When users search &#8220;ai perchance chat&#8221; or &#8220;per chance ai,&#8221; they almost always mean these AI-powered roleplay tools. How Perchance AI Chat Actually Works Everything runs in your browser. Conversations persist through localStorage \u2014 nothing reaches remote servers. The text AI is believed to be a distilled DeepSeek R1 variant on LLaMa architecture with roughly an 8K token context window. Image generation uses Flux.1 Schnell (Chroma Radiant variant). The Perchance Ecosystem \u2014 AI Chat, AI Character Chat, and Beyond Perchance.org hosts several AI tools: Community activity and fork development center on ACC. Is Perchance AI Chat Really Free? No Catch Explained A Reddit thread asking &#8220;How Is Perchance AI Affording This?&#8221; earned 87 upvotes. The answer: ad revenue, developer subsidization, efficient models like Flux Schnell, and near-zero overhead from not storing chats server-side. No premium tier, no credits, no hidden upsell. Perchance AI Character Chat Guide \u2014 Getting Started Getting into Perchance AI Chat takes under a minute \u2014 no email, password, or credit card needed. Your First Chat in 60 Seconds (Step-by-Step) You&#8217;ll see a scenario field, lore panel, and character description area, but none need editing for a basic chat. Creating Your First Custom Character Provide a name, personality traits, backstory, speaking style, and a scenario. Specific instructions beat vague ones \u2014 &#8220;sarcastic medieval blacksmith who despises nobility&#8221; outperforms &#8220;interesting character.&#8221; Add lore entries for persistent world-building context. Understanding the Chat Interface \u2014 Scenarios, Lore, and Settings Elements new users often overlook: Perchance AI Chat Forks and Variants \u2014 Which One Should You Use? Community developers have built multiple ACC variants, each solving different problems. No existing guide covers this landscape. AI Character Chat (ACC) \u2014 The Official Base Version The standard version includes character creation, Flux Schnell image generation, share links, and localStorage persistence. Stable but slower on feature updates than community forks. Petrafied ACC \u2014 The Community Favorite The most recommended fork on Reddit, Petrafied ACC adds a browse gallery for pre-made characters and an enhanced UI. Widely considered the best all-around choice. NACG (New AI Chat Gen) \u2014 Built for the Post-September 2025 Era Born after a September 2025 model update broke prompt adherence, NACG introduced a Main Prompt Template editor, creativity slider, emdash fix, and improved summarization. Users say it shipped &#8220;more fixes in two months than ACC in two years.&#8221; URV AI Chat \u2014 Best UI and Multi-Model Support URV offers the cleanest interface, Pollinations API model switching, and external API key integration. It can even interpret uploaded images via mini-DeepSeek. Trade-off: weaker creative writing and an aggressive default persona. TPS Group Chat \u2014 Multi-Character Conversations The only fork where AI characters converse with each other autonomously \u2014 essential for group roleplay scenarios. Quick Comparison Table \u2014 All Forks at a Glance Fork Best For Key Feature Lorebook Image Gen ACC (Official) Stability Official maintenance Yes Yes Petrafied ACC All-around use Browse gallery Yes Yes NACG Post-update fixes MPT editor, creativity slider Yes Yes URV AI UI &amp; model flexibility Multi-model API support Limited Yes TPS Group Chat Group roleplay Autonomous multi-character Yes Yes Key Features That Make Perchance AI Chat Stand Out Truly Free \u2014 No Credits, No Paywalls, No Login Required Every major competitor charges something \u2014 Character.AI has c.ai+ subscriptions, JanitorAI locks features behind premium, SpicyChat charges for extended access. Perchance charges nothing. When a YouTuber claimed hidden costs, community top comments (41, 38, 23 likes) all called it false. In-Chat Image Generation With Flux Schnell The AI generates contextual images mid-conversation using Flux.1 Schnell. Refine results with the &#8220;Image generation prompt starter\/ending&#8221; fields. The standalone ai-text-to-image-generator offers more control, but in-chat generation keeps narrative flow intact. Browser-Only Storage for Maximum Privacy All conversations exist solely in your browser&#8217;s localStorage \u2014 no server logs, no accounts, no data collection. The community calls it &#8220;the most private AI chat option available.&#8221; The flip side: clearing your cache permanently destroys everything. Customizable Content Filters and NSFW Settings Instead of blanket censorship \u2014 the top reason users leave Character.AI \u2014 Perchance provides adjustable content restrictions. Parental oversight is recommended for younger users. Advanced Tips \u2014 Prompt Engineering and Customization Writing Better Character Descriptions That the AI Actually Follows Use specific behavioral instructions, not vague traits. Include speaking style samples, define relationships explicitly, and add &#8220;DO NOT&#8221; directives (e.g., &#8220;Do NOT speak for the user&#8221;). After major plot events, manually update character descriptions to preserve continuity. Using Lorebooks for Persistent World Memory Lorebooks give the AI persistent reference material beyond the context window. Create entries for key facts, backstories, and plot points the AI can reference after older messages drop off. System Prompt Recipes From the Community Tested templates from Reddit (57 upvotes) include strict third-person narration, day\/night cycle temporal drives, non-resolution endings to prevent scene-rushing, and &#8220;Break Bad Patterns&#8221; anti-repetition directives. JavaScript Customizations for Power Users Via the settings gear icon, inject custom JavaScript. Popular scripts include word-ban code filtering overused phrases (&#8220;ozone,&#8221; &#8220;white knuckles&#8221;) and timestamp injection giving the AI awareness of gaps between messages. Getting Photorealistic Images Instead of Anime Defaults The default model skews toward anime. For realism, add &#8220;Kodak Portra 400, photojournalistic photography, raw photo&#8221; to image prompt starter, put &#8220;anime, cartoon, illustration&#8221; in the negative prompt, and set guidance to ~8.
