WaniKani mnemonics in image-form done by AI

holy! I can’t wait coming to your level - level 16 sounds absolutely wild. :joy:

The AI always creates 4 images at once in total and I usually choose the one that fits the best but here I have to share 2 because they turned out absolutely amazing.

Here’s another one I made for the kanji 花 which is made out of the radicals for flower, spoon and leader.

A leader with a spoon is planting flowers so that one day this place may be full of beautiful flowers.

According to AI - this leader is not only planting flowers with a spoon, he’s a flower himself.

It seems that Craiyon gives more realistic ones if you do not type in any specific art style
