Hi, this is kenderbell. A few days ago, I heard about the new Checkpoint Anima and wanted to give it a try.

I was surprised to find out that the Stable Diffusion I’d been using all this time, was really outdated. I had to switch to Forge Neo, and it took me a whole day just to re-download Python, CUDA, drivers, and so on.

The good news is that after all this, the program runs more smoothly, So that alone would be enough to say that I'm really satisfied, but the truth is, this first impression of my 1st anima Lora has left me without words.

Someone mentioned it to me in a comment, so as I had the dataset on hand, I wanted to make this my first test.

As you can see, the results look exactly like a screenshot from the anime; my Nene's loras for Illustrious and Noobai are good—they have a style that makes the characters looks super cute, in fact, I still prefer that styles, but this has faithfully captured the anime’s style; Digimon Xros Wars isn’t an anime with very polished animation, but Anima has captured it all—for better or worse.

That's all for now. I'll keep experimenting with prompts, anima checkpoints and creating more Loras for this base. I'll probably add it as a commission option in the near future once I feel I've got the hang of it.

HQ VER

This version was trained using screenshots selected from the best-animated episodes of the anime in which Nene appears (17, 19, 46, 47). Therefore, the style of images that can be generated using the tags “anime screencap, official style, original art style” is very different from the previous one, which was trained on anime in general. I hope you like it.
