This LoRA has been primarily trained on the Emotion Sprites used during character conversations in “The World Ends With You”.
Trigger Word
twewy_sprite_styleFor the best results, I highly recommend adding “cowboy shot” to your prompt. The Emotion Sprites in the game are typically shown from this framing, and most of the images used in the training dataset follow that composition. This helps the LoRA reproduce the characteristic upper-body framing, slightly angled poses, and expressive facial focus seen during dialogue scenes.
That said, after extensive testing I've found that the LoRA is also capable of generating full-body characters and other camera angles while still preserving the distinctive visual style.

Notes
This LoRA has been tested both with original characters generated from prompts and in combination with character LoRAs.
When combined with other character LoRAs, keep in mind that the final result can vary significantly depending on how strongly the character LoRA imposes its own style. In my tests, I usually had to reduce the character LoRA weight to prevent it from overpowering the style.
As a general guideline:
Style LoRA: 1.0
Character LoRA: around 0.4–0.6
When used on its own, the LoRA does a good job of recreating the distinctive visual style of The World Ends With You. When combined with character LoRAs, it tends to reinterpret those characters as if they belonged to the game's universe, preserving their identity while adapting them to TWEWY's bold linework, stylized proportions, and expressive sprite aesthetic.
Have fun!
