    ■This is an experimental ground for krea2 LoRAs.

    ■If you notice pixel patterns in your generated images, try the VAE below. It removes the pixelation typical of the qwen_vae and makes the images much sharper.

    ■If the VAE looks a bit too saturated for your taste, try using this VAE merge node to blend it with the original qwen_vae to dial it in. A 0.5 merge should be just right.

    Description

    ■This is a cute, cel anime-style LoRA. It was trained on a carefully curated dataset of 19,000 images from various classic cel anime titles.

    Style Tendencies
    The overall style leans towards a "pop" aesthetic with large eyes. The tone is generally clear and bright, but it rarely becomes overly vivid like modern digital anime. Instead, you can easily achieve the calm colors and nostalgic atmosphere unique to traditional cel anime.

    Trigger Tags & Dataset Info
    Below are the anime titles used in the dataset. These names are also trained as style trigger tags, and the tag names are based on existing series tags on Danbooru. I've included brief notes on the style tendencies of each dataset. Please treat these as a general reference—they might not apply perfectly during every inference, but they serve as a useful guide. Some series naturally have a simpler overall style. If you want to generate images with more detail or dense information, I highly recommend using the tags for titles where I specifically praise the backgrounds.
    Or you might want to search the series names to get a sense of the overall vibe.

    I’ve also included the dataset resolutions for each title.

    Many of the "cute style" anime series were never released on Blu-ray, which limited what I could source, so some of the datasets rely on DVD-quality footage.

    You don't need to worry about this during inference, as I trained the model to ensure it doesn't negatively impact the output, but it can serve as a baseline indicator of the source quality. (BD sources were trained at 1024px, and DVD sources at 768px.)

    Please note that a lower resolution does not mean the anime itself is of low quality! Every single one of these shows features exceptionally high-quality animation that truly stood out in its era.
