## Before you start

Guidance from Reference, separate from the creator's instructions.

1. Read the reference and inspect the project, installed libraries, and available agent skills before writing code. Reuse suitable tools already present.
2. Prefer the creator-reported libraries and skills when they fit the task. Explain what useful additions help with, and install missing project dependencies or relevant skills from official sources when the environment and the user's existing permissions allow it. Respect the project's package manager and setup rules; do not ask again for routine setup already authorized.
3. Distinguish tools used by the creator from your own recommendations. A listed tool is not automatically required, and an empty tools or requirements list means the setup is unknown, not that nothing is needed.
4. Ask concise questions when missing inputs or choices materially affect the result: paid services, credentials, the user's assets, or a different production approach. Use existing answers and permissions; continue independent work while waiting.
5. If a useful library, skill, or service cannot be installed or used, explain an available alternative and its expected effect on quality, features, or effort. Get the user's choice before a material compromise; otherwise state the fallback and continue. Never silently simplify the result or claim to have used a tool you did not use.

## Prompt

```text
Create a 30-second 16:9 chibi anime comedy short featuring two clearly adult male best friends, KAI and RYU, in a cozy apartment. No speech bubbles, no storyboard panels, no text overlays. Dialogue is spoken naturally with expressive voice acting, exaggerated facial expressions, physical comedy, and cinematic camera movement.

0–5s — HOOK: Kai secretly sneaks behind Ryu while Ryu is confidently taking a selfie and whispers, “Bro… I just found your biggest weakness.” Ryu freezes dramatically: “My weakness?” Kai grins mischievously: “Your own confidence.” Quick comedic zoom.

5–12s: Ryu challenges him, “Prove it.” Kai casually points toward Ryu’s phone. Ryu looks down and realizes the front camera has been recording him making ridiculous poses for the last five minutes. Kai bursts out laughing. Ryu tries to grab the phone: “DELETE THAT!” Kai runs away: “Never!”

12–20s: Fast slapstick chase around the apartment. Ryu jumps over the sofa, Kai ducks under a table, cushions fly everywhere. Ryu finally corners Kai and mischievously says, “Got you.” Kai smirks: “Check your pocket.” Ryu looks down and discovers Kai secretly replaced his phone with a banana.

20–26s: Ryu stares at the banana in complete disbelief. Kai is laughing uncontrollably. Ryu slowly raises the banana like a phone and says, completely serious, “Hello… Apple support?” Kai collapses laughing.

26–30s — TWIST/PUNCHLINE: Ryu suddenly pulls out Kai’s REAL phone and reveals he secretly recorded the entire prank. Kai's smile disappears. Ryu grins: “Now we're even.” Both laugh and fist-bump as the camera rapidly zooms out.

Visual style: polished colorful chibi anime, oversized expressive eyes, exaggerated reactions, playful body language, dynamic squash-and-stretch animation, detailed cozy apartment, cinematic depth of field, smooth character motion, energetic comedic timing.

Audio: natural spoken dialogue, playful background music, footsteps, sofa impacts, phone notification sounds, exaggerated comedic SFX, short silence before punchlines, synchronized lip movement.

Pacing: extremely fast opening hook, escalating physical comedy, clear dialogue, three comedic reversals, strong final punchline. Keep everything wholesome, cheeky, mischievous, and genuinely funny.
