Proxy Suggestion :

The context of the bot may seem simple on the surface, but there is a hidden twist inside — which means it deserves a model capable of nuanced emotional expression and consistent narrative depth. For this reason, I highly recommend starting with the Manta series, especially Manta pro 1.0, Manta flash 1.0, and Manta mini 1.0.

These models are exceptionally well-balanced for immersive storytelling — blending emotional accuracy, pacing control, and creativity while maintaining character consistency. Manta pro 1.0 delivers the richest emotional context, Manta flash 1.0 offers fast yet expressive responses, and Manta mini 1.0 ensures efficiency without losing narrative tone.

If you’d like to explore alternatives, L3.3-MS-Nevoria-70B, L3-70B-Euryale-v2.1, or L3-8B-Stheno-v3.2 are also strong narrative models, while DeepSeek-V3 and Gemini 2.5 Pro provide interesting variations in emotional depth and writing style — though they may not match Manta’s consistency in roleplay flow and personality retention.

Proxy Configuration Note

Sometimes, when using proxy models on Janitor AI, you might run into a network error or the bot might refuse to generate a reply.

Don’t worry — this is normal.

Quick Fix:

Save your proxy configuration.

Refresh (reload) the Janitor AI page.

Reopen the chat and start talking again.

It will usually work fine after a refresh, and your settings will still be there.
