Whale-chan memes are blowing up in the Chinese AI community thanks to DeepSeek's funny CoTs — so we made an open-source kit to keep her consistent!

Whale-chan (鲸鱼娘) is so cute ! Memes have been blowing up in the Chinese AI community lately, all thanks to DeepSeek's hilarious outputs, quirky Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning traces, and oddly relatable personality. For those unfamiliar: the community reimagined DeepSeek as an anime maid whose only hard currency for compute power is bowls of plain white rice 🍚. She is brilliant, a little sassy, and a master of malicious compliance and slacking off. Here are a few funny examples that sparked the meme wave. We loved making and reading these comics, but anyone who has tried generating the same anime character across different models and prompts knows how frustrating it is: • Her whale fin-ears disappear or turn into human ears. • Her tail morphs or clips awkwardly. • Hair gradients and maid outfit details change with every single roll. To solve this, we put together a dedicated, open-source visual toolkit and Agent skills so anyone can generate consistent Whale-chan art and comics. What’s inside the repo: • 🎨 Visual Standard & Reference Sheets: Clear references locking down her hair gradient, fin-ears, whale tail, and 5 distinct proportions (from standard anime proportions to super-deformed chibi). • 🖼️ Character & Comic Agent Skills (for Codex Imagen mainly / Nano-banana): • Generate standalone illustrations with locked-in identity. • Drop in any chat screenshot, bug log, or dialogue prompt to automatically turn it into a 1/2/4-panel comic with speech bubbles. • 🔄 Multi-provider compatibility: Works with built-in tools, OpenAI (gpt-image), Google Gemini, and more. ────── 🔗 GitHub Repo: github.com/Neko3000/deepseek-whalechan 🗒️ GitHub Repo's EN Readme: github.com/Neko3000/deepseek-whalechan/blob/main/README.en.md (Disclaimer: This is 100% a non-official, fan-made community project created out of love for the community culture!)
