Prompt (original, unmodified)
A 15-second cinematic 2D side-scrolling fighting game scene in Chinese ink-wash anime style, clean and sharp with no noise, high-contrast black ink visuals with red accents, set on a cliff with misty mountains, plum blossoms, and traditional architecture in the background; two characters face each other in a wide shot, left is an aggressive black-robed swordsman and right is a calm white-robed swordsman, with full game UI visible including health bars at the top left and right (no numbers or secondary status bars) and a large countdown timer in the center starting at 15 and decreasing every second in real time; from to (timer 15 to 12) the black-robed character dashes forward and performs a fast slash while the white-robed character blocks with a clear guard effect, sparks and ink splash, minimal damage and slight reduction in the white character’s health bar; from to (timer 12 to 9) the white-robed character counterattacks with a quick thrust combo, the black-robed character partially blocks but still gets hit, small damage numbers appear and the black character’s health bar decreases slightly with visible hit impact effects and red ink streaks; from to (timer 9 to 6) both characters exchange rapid slashes mid-screen, swords collide with sparks and circular ink shockwaves, both health bars decrease moderately; from to (timer 6 to 3) the white-robed character dodges sideways with afterimage motion blur while the black-robed character misses a heavy strike and briefly pauses, creating tension; from to (timer 3 to 0) the black-robed character activates a powerful ultimate ability with a massive sweeping ink-brush slash and a red energy arc across the screen, the camera slightly zooms in with subtle shake and enters slow motion at the moment of impact as the white-robed character is struck directly, a large damage number appears and the white character’s health bar rapidly drains to zero; final moment shows the timer reaching 0 as the white-robed character collapses or freezes in defeat pose, and bold Chinese characters appear in the center of the screen reading “已击败 白衣客”, with ink particles and red petals drifting in the air, cinematic timing, smooth animation, dynamic camera shake, visible health bar reduction after every hit, and dramatic finishing effect

How this prompt compares
The techniques this prompt uses are more common in anime prompts than in the library overall:
| Technique | In anime | Library average | Lift |
|---|---|---|---|
| zoom | 11% | 9% | 1.31x |
Across all 5,926 prompts, the techniques used here appear at: wide shot 26%, slow motion 21%, zoom 9%.
The 15s duration is not arbitrary: 71% of the prompts in this library that state a duration ask for exactly 15 seconds — Seedance 2.0 accepts clips up to 15 seconds, so 15s is the model's ceiling and the most common choice.
