Semi-Realistic Anima Blend is a model based on the latest Version base-v1.0 of the new Anima checkpoint.

It offers a semi-realistic Anime style and supports prompting in booru tags and natural language.

You need to download additional text encoder and VAE to use this model:

For all samples, the Forge Neo Add-on "Anima Detail Enhancer" was used to improve minor details. Below settings were applied.

I recommend using a post processing upscale instead of a usual High-res fix.

The preview images were 4x upscaled with [Nvidia] HD Ultra.
