Request: Manga generation support for visually impaired creators

I have a visual impairment.

I used to work as a designer, and drawing was not only my profession but my purpose in life. Due to my condition, I can no longer create artwork by hand.

However, I have not given up on creation itself. I love building stories, and I am currently working on a project called “Kotowari” using ChatGPT.

The major challenge comes when trying to turn my story into a manga.

I have tried tools like Stable Diffusion and LoRA, but they require heavy visual adjustment and fine-tuning. Maintaining:

  • consistent art style

  • character identity

  • panel composition

is extremely difficult, especially for someone with limited vision.

On the other hand, ChatGPT’s image generation feels closer to my intent and expression.

That is why I strongly request:

An end-to-end system that can generate manga from story to final visuals.

This includes:

  • panel layout

  • consistent characters

  • expressions and acting

  • continuous page generation based on narrative

This is not just about convenience.

For visually impaired creators, this is about regaining the ability to create.

I lost the ability to draw, but I do not want to lose the ability to create.

Please consider this not just as a feature request, but as a step toward making creative tools accessible to everyone.

I truly hope this will be developed.
