Running on Zero

From the depths of the stabilityai/stable-diffusion forum, I dug out this prompt by Ryka, originally done with SD version 1.4 or 1.5 :
"From the depths of the eternal sea, beneath the march of endless green waves broken only by the white of crashing foam,
the head of the ancient gargantuan creature emerged in the twilight. Its scales shone as sapphires, its eyes glowed of pale fire,
and it's great jaws bore threatening teeth like blades of ivory. The master of the deep had emerged from his long hibernation.
All creatures of the sea trembled with fear, for there could be no escape from the hunger of the beast."
(compare https://huggingface.co/spaces/stabilityai/stable-diffusion/discussions/5689 )
I wanted to see how SD-XL handles this.

Seems to me that SD-XL shows much less variability than the older versions. All show a giant wave transforming into a crocodile.
The last two sentences of the prompt (after "...ivory.") are completely ignored, as well as additional style hints I appended at the end.
They must be place at the beginning.

Something in the waves reminded me of a world-famous work of art by Utagawa Hiroshige, so I put his name up front - which killed the monster alltogether:

Another japanese artist fared better in this aspect - Moronobu Hishikawa:

Still another japanese VIP didn't show up by himself and had to be called in. He must feel quite at home in the scene - Godzilla!

Action photography, and SD-XL surprises me with a complete (!!!!) frame I didn't ask for!

I'm not into Manga Comics, but gave it a try with "Godzilla by Studio Ghibly:" at the prompts start. Seems like SD-XL already did it automatically in the topmost pic.
