Notes

For sharper detail and cleaner structure, try DPM++ 2M SDE GPU.

For stronger mood and darker romantic atmosphere, try ER_SDE with lower CFG.

Lower CFG can make the image feel closer to the LoRA mood, but it may also soften background details.

CFG Guidance

• CFG 4.0: Balanced setting. Similar to Civitai's default preview style.

• CFG 5.0 to 5.5: More polished Anima-style interpretation. Often produces attractive anime images, but may be less faithful to the original dataset details.
