Sorry in advance if this is hard to read, I'm not entirely sure how to format on Reddit.
All images generated using my local comfy workflow (Workflow, update to latest comfy version to use - the built-in comfy fibo node will automatically resize to 1 megapixel if width and height are left 0). Models used were fibo_dev_int8_convrot for diffusion model, qwen3vl_4b_int8_convrot for text encoder, and full_encoder_small_decoder for vae (flux2-vae with faster decoding). 50 steps, cfg 5, euler sampler, and simple scheduler. No negative prompt was used.
These are my unbridled outputs, i.e. one seed per prompt as my machine takes a while per each generation. So keep in mind that what you're about to see might not be 100 percent reflective of the model's capabilities. The prompts were also limited in scope so with further fine-tuning results may improve.
First two images represent a 360 'turntable' presentation. From left to right (with first image being the original so it doesn't have a prompt):
Turn the girl to face the right while preserving all other aspects of the image.
Turn the girl to face the right such that her body is perpendicular to the viewer, viewed from the side, while preserving all other aspects of the image.
Turn the girl 270 degrees counter-clockwise such that she's viewed from behind facing slightly to the right while preserving all other aspects of the image.
Turn the girl so she faces the opposite direction, viewed straight-on from behind while preserving all other aspects of the image.
Turn the girl 270 degrees clockwise while preserving all other aspects of the image.
Turn the girl to face the left such that her body is perpendicular to the viewer, viewed from the side, while preserving all other aspects of the image.
Turn the girl to face the left while preserving all other aspects of the image.
The overall quality of the images seems decent, however there are certainly some issues with the eyes and the hands at some points.
Interestingly it didn't just copy the same pose for every shot, it actually managed to preserve the book when she turned away from facing the viewer while still having her hold it naturally.
I specifically chose an image with a hair ornament as I wanted to test the model's sense of object permanence, i.e. if it understands that the hair ornament should be excluded when the character is facing in a manner that it would normally be out of visibility. I purposefully didn't mention this in the prompt to see what its innate abilities were.
Unfortunately it basically failed on all counts in this regard as the ornament was just pasted on randomly in the shots where it should have been occluded as a result of the angle. This isn't really any different from the likes of Qwen and Flux though.
Next two images (images 3 and 4) are variations of the same input image with two different prompts, left showing the original and right showing the output.
- Edit the provided image so that only the single girl in the center foreground remains. Keep the orange-haired girl in the very front center of the image as the only character. Preserve her full appearance, including her face, expression, hair, pose, clothing, and proportions. She should remain the main subject in the foreground. Remove all other girls from the image completely. Remove every background character, including any visible faces, hair, hands, arms, legs, shoulders, or partial body parts belonging to the other girls. Remove all text and graphic elements from the image, including the large pink Japanese title text, the English subtitle text, decorative sparkles, and feather-like graphic elements near the text. After removing the other characters and text, reconstruct the missing background naturally and cleanly. Fill the empty areas with a believable continuation of the outdoor rooftop scene, including sky, water, distant mountains, railing, ground, and any appropriate environmental details. Make the composition look natural and seamless, as if the image originally only contained the single front girl. Preserve the anime illustration style, clean line art, bright colors, and overall visual quality of the original image. Keep the remaining girl centered and prominent. Do not add any new characters, objects, or text.
Prompt was enhanced by ChatGPT. This was actually pretty impressive, as it did remove all the characters except the one I intended and maintained her pose and expression almost exactly. It did duplicate her ahoge on the opposite side and mess up her left hand, but I wasn't really expecting anything too high quality from that much of a destructive action.
- Remove the text and make every character's hair and eyes vibrant green while preserving the composition. Preserve the feathers behind the text and above and to the sides of the characters.
Yeah so this one was just a complete and utter failure. Not only did it turn the skin of every character green, it also barely changed any of the hair colors, and took my preserve instruction too strongly and didn't remove the Japanese text fully, only the English text.
Images 5 through 8 are not my outputs, but just something kind of curious/mildly alarming I wanted to point out.
So briaai uploaded an official image editing demonstration to their model card on huggingface (link), which you can see in its entirety on image 5.
Image 6 is a cropped version of the second panel from image 5. If you look closely you can actually see there's a random finger emerging from nowhere (circled in red). Then circled in green it appears that the duck's right foot has been transformed into some kind of stump and its left foot seemingly has two feet emerging from the same area. Then in blue, this is relatively minor, but if you compare the nose piercing in the original (i.e. left panel in image 5) to the nose piercing in image 6, you can see it flipped direction to the right side of her nose instead of the left.
Image 7 is a cropped version of the third panel in image 5, if you look closely at the fingers you can see the pinky and ring finger (marked in yellow) are actually just stumps that don't continue past the viewer's visibility. Then again in blue the nose ring has been duplicated across both sides despite only being present on the left in the original.
Image 8 is a cropped version of the fourth panel in image 5. Again the pinky and ring finger have turned to stumps (marked in yellow) and the nose ring has mysteriously disappeared, once again in blue.
This tangent doesn't really serve a purpose, I just thought it was odd that if these are the images you're exposing to the consumer as the representation for your model, you would avoid including such blatant errors. If the entire series of panels was one prompt it would be understandable but it seems more like to me that they were three separate generations that were stitched together. I could be wrong, but the prompt is conveniently missing so it's hard to say.
But anyways back to the actual point of the post, based on my limited experience, I think Fibo 2.0 is a solid model, surely, but I'm not really seeing anything that designates it as the cream of the crop.
Only officially supporting one megapixel generations limits the quality of the outputs significantly I feel, so perhaps comparing it to Qwen and Flux is unfair in this instance. However, I feel if you're releasing an image editing model in 2026, native 4 megapixel support should more or less be the bare minimum.
Images 9 and 10 show the 'Artificial Analysis' rankings for the model which show Fibo 2.0 at number 1 in image editing with 1087 points and number 2 in text to image with 1038 points.
But if you look into what this actually entails, the ranking was taken from the model's 'Image Arena' score which is merely a subjective assessment of several models based on select prompts. Image 11 shows an example of what this might look like, though the official rankings are not influenced by the public.
In any case, it can be misleading at first glance looking at the chart since it appears that the model is objectively better than the rest of the competition, when in actuality the metrics are just based off of each rater's preference. Just something I thought I would bring up.
Every time a new model comes out you always see the hordes gravitating towards it and proclaiming it as the 'Best [x] Model of 2026!' which is typically based on subjective criteria, or frankly, in a lot of cases, misinformation.
I would do more prompts to compare but unfortunately I do have to actually go to sleep in order to wake up and go to work and I've already spent a lot of time on this post as it is. Let me know your guys' thoughts and experiences on this model. I'm interested to see if people will actually consider replacing/have already replaced their Flux or Qwen workflows with this and what the rationale is if so (genuinely, not intending to be facetious).
