Short version

PixAI, a site for anime-style pictures with more than 16 million accounts, has released Tsubaki.3. The model went out on 16 September 2026. On 28 September the company published the technical report and opened Tagger 1.0. Tsubaki.3 was built from scratch. One model draws from a written description, lays out a manga page, and turns a still of the same character into a short video.

Training began with about 500 million picture-and-caption pairs and was cut to about 50 million, so rare styles would not be crowded out. The report names a failure called style collapse: after the model learns to draw hands, bodies, and words correctly, pictures slide toward one plain look. The fix is two steps. About 7,000 pictures chosen by people, then a second pass that brings the look back. Tagger 1.0 labels a picture with 30,877 tags and is 10.4 points more accurate on character tags than the previous tagger. Research use is free on Hugging Face.

Tsubaki.3 is on PixAI now. Through 20 October 2026, for the site’s fourth anniversary, every logged-in user gets a free trial. Premium members can generate from text without spending credits, and yearly plans are half price.
