/pop · Pop comic
Best for: playful and loud: snacks, toys, games, kids' parties, street food, fun announcements.
Viral estimate: 7.5/10 in general: high energy and colour, strong for kids and families; tiring if the reel is long. A judgement until their own posts in this style come back; /analytics updates it.
The style
- Primary red #E8202A, yellow #FFD500, blue #1E5BD8, green #21A65A, halftone dots everywhere, 10 px ink outlines, Lalezar with a black stroke and offset shadow.
- Speech bubbles grow from their tail, BAM/WOW/ZIP bursts punch in on beats, panels slam into a comic grid from four sides, the page shakes on impact.
- Rays spin slowly behind big words. Keep sound effects in sync with every punch.
- Captions: bordered white word boxes, the spoken word yellow.

How to run it
Follow playbook/STYLE-REEL.md end to end with --style pop. The reference implementation of every scene type in this
style is tools/style-reel/styles/pop.js (scene ids B1–B6 are the same in every style; the template's demo is the worked
example). Rewrite the scenes for the new content in this style's grammar; never paste the demo text.
Before anything is shown: qa.py --plan with zero FAIL and the 3 fps sheet eye pass (playbook/MOTION-QA.md). Facts on
screen come only from the source (the owner's facts table, their own pages, a cited source).
