Nano banana is very good, BUT, it does what it thinks it should do when you ask it to, it doesn't do exactly what you want, but it is very good.

Nano Banana Pro is surprisingly decent at building a whole scene around a mood. Still a bit hit-or-miss with details, but honestly much better than expected.
