## Best for

* Anime and illustrated motion
* Character-driven anime scenes
* Clips that connect frame to frame
* Long unlimited clips: Melon reaches 16 seconds at 540p on Max

## An example prompt to start from

```text theme={null}
@mika runs along the school rooftop and stops at the railing, wind in her hair, sunset behind her, anime
```

## Limitations

* There are no Character Voices or audio references. Generate dialogue on Seed Audio, or use Plum or Lemon.
* Frame mode and reference mode are separate on this model: one generation uses a first or last frame, or Characters and References, not both.
* It is tuned for anime, so photoreal subjects come out better on Cherry or Plum.
