The conceptual artwork presented on this website has been generated with ChatGPT and is used solely to visualize the characters, settings, and world of The Chronicles of Kitaro. These images are placeholders and are not intended to appear as the final artwork in the published books.
The stories, manuscripts, characters, and written content are my own work and were not generated by AI. I use AI as an editorial and research tool, including assistance with proofreading, identifying errors, and polishing presentation.
I support traditional artists and look forward to working with the illustrator ultimately chosen for these books. The conceptual images on this site are intended to communicate my visual ideas and provide a starting point for that collaboration—not to replace the work of a professional illustrator.
