Question 1

What is Gootaku?

Accepted Answer

Gootaku is an AI-powered platform that lets anyone create manga, comics, and animated GIFs without drawing skills. The AI generates the artwork based on your text prompts; you control the story, dialogue, and panel composition. It's built for the otaku and anime fan community.

Question 2

Is Gootaku free?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every account gets 10 free AI generation tokens every month (no card, no signup wall) plus full studio access — manga, comic, and GIF makers — and the community feed. There's no subscription. When you want more, you buy one-time token packs: Starter Pack ($9.99 for 100 tokens) or Creator Pack ($39.99 for 500 tokens). Purchased tokens never expire.

Question 3

How is Gootaku different from LlamaGen, Dashtoon, or KomikoAI?

Accepted Answer

LlamaGen targets Amazon KDP commercial publishing. Dashtoon specializes in vertical-scroll webtoons. KomikoAI focuses on animated anime characters. Gootaku is the only platform combining manga, Western comics, and GIFs in one studio plus a 9gag-style community feed — and it has no subscription: 10 free tokens every month, then one-time token packs from $9.99 that never expire.

Question 4

Do I need drawing skills to use Gootaku?

Accepted Answer

No drawing skills required. The AI generates each panel based on your text description. You provide the story, character descriptions, and dialogue — Gootaku creates the visual art.

Question 5

Can I export my manga as files?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can export your creations as JSON containing all panels, prompts, and metadata, and re-import projects later. We don't lock your work into our platform.

Question 6

What art styles does Gootaku support?

Accepted Answer

Manga (classic B&W, shonen, shojo, seinen, chibi manga), Western comics (anime, chibi, webtoon, noir, retro), and animated GIFs (chibi animation, anime, pixel art, sticker, loop art).

Question 7

Does Gootaku work on mobile?

Accepted Answer

Yes — the entire platform is fully mobile-responsive. Create, browse, vote, and comment from your phone or tablet.

Question 8

Who owns the content I create on Gootaku?

Accepted Answer

You do. Everything you create on Gootaku belongs to you. We just provide the tools and the community.

Question 9

Is there a community feed?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The Explore page is a 9gag-style feed where creators publish their manga, comics, and GIFs. Other users upvote, comment, and share. It's the fastest way to grow an audience.

Question 10

What AI model does Gootaku use for image generation?

Accepted Answer

Gootaku uses OpenAI's gpt-image-1 model for fast, high-quality generation. We continuously evaluate new models and upgrade when better options ship.
