Tips

Use style tags such as 'anime style' or artist/title name to help the model understand desired output.

For fastest generation, use CFG 1.0 and set lora CFG_slider on negative -0.4 value (note: negative prompt ignored at CFG 1.0).

For best coherency, use CFG 2.8 and CFG_slider lora at +0.75 weight with Euler A sampler.

Version Highlights

I doubt I can do something better than this one by mixing.

v4.3 [final]

I recommend to choose this one or v2. If you don't care about speed and want great anime results use this model + LCM sampler + 20 steps. It's simply better than any model I know in this aspect.

6+ steps (8 + 4 steps of upscaler is optimal for my use cases, feel free to experiment).

A few options of samplers:

  • CFG 1.8 | Euler A

  • CFG 2.0 | LCM - better for anime and other abstract things.

  • CFG 1.8 | DPM++ 2M SDE with BETA scheduler (normal doesn't work)

Use style tags such as "anime style, flat coloring" or artist/title name. It will help model to know what you want from it.

The fastest generation: use CFG 1.0 and set lora CFG_slider on negative -0.4 value. Lora listed in suggested resources. (CFG 1.0 ignores negative prompt. Don't use it if you need negative)

The best coherency: use CFG 2.8 and CFG_slider lora on +0.75 weight (for Euler A).

v3.2B

Recommended settings:

  • CFG 1.8

  • LCM / [kl optimal / sgm uniform]

  • 5-10 steps

v3.2A

Recommended settings:

  • CFG 1.8 (works not bad on cfg 1 as well)

  • Euler A / normal

  • 5-10 steps

v1.99 (v-prediction)

Use title or artist name to get a specific style.

Eauler A - Beta scheduler (or normal)

8-16 steps

CFG: 1.0 recommended for 2x speed. Use more if you want to use negative prompt.

v2

Sampler: Euler A / Euler A cfg++

CFG: (depends on sampler)

Alternative sampler: LCM
