    Kirazuri (Anima)

    Kirazuri (Anima) is a full fine-tune of the Anima Base v1.0 model by CircleStone Labs focused on several goals:

    • Learn new concepts/styles/characters past the base model dataset cutoff of 2025 September

    • Enhance the model aesthetic guided by manually applied quality, aesthetic, and style tagging

    • Improve rendering and understanding of fine-details through high-resolution training for 1024^2, 1280^2, and 1536^2 resolutions

    Version 4.0 (Latest)

    For in-depth details of training and tooling, see:

    Installing and running

    Workflow:

    Reference the anima base instructions. The model is natively supported in ComfyUI. The above image contains a workflow; you can open it in ComfyUI or drag-and-drop to get the workflow.

    Note: Most preview images on the model card additionally use the custom comfyui-prompt-control node for schedule prompting syntax to mix concepts i.e. [word1|word2]
    This custom node is entirely optional but required to exactly recreate the outputs in ComfyUI.

    The model files go in their respective folders inside your model directory:

    Quantizations

    Int8 supported with latest ComfyUI:

    Distillations

    4 Step CFG 1 Turbo LoRA distilled with DP-DMD - diversity-preserved few-step distillation:

    Generation Settings

    Trained in mixed resolutions for the majority of training, and finished with dedicated high resolution training.

    Previews are generated mostly at 1280^2 e.g. 1520x1040 or 1536^2 e.g. 1248x1824 resolutions.

    30-50 steps, CFG 4-5.

    Same samplers as recommended for the base model work, I like to use:

    • er_sde: the recommended default for 30-50 steps.

    • sa_solver_pece: can converge with good detail in 15-20 steps.

    [Optional] ComfyUI-Autocomplete-Plus prompt input assistance

    An optional file danbooru_tags_kirazuri_4.txt is included to provide prompt tag autocomplete.

    This file contains metadata that is derived from public sources for prompt assistance only, and is intended to be used with the ComfyUI-Autocomplete-Plus extension.

    Rename the file to danbooru_tags_kirazuri_4.csv and place it in your ComfyUI/custom_nodes/comfyui-autocomplete-plus/data directory.

    You should see suggestions when writing comma separated tags in ComfyUI:

    Prompting

    Like the base model, this model is trained on booru-style tags, natural language captions, and combinations of tags and captions.

    Tag order

    [quality/meta/safety tags] [character] [series] [artist] [1girl/1boy/1other etc] [general tags]

    Mostly the same order as the base model, only the [1girl/1boy/other etc] groups position is towards the end in this models dataset.

    [quality/meta/safety tags] [character] [series] [artist] tag groups are also not shuffled, so their order may have some influence on generations.

    Quality and Aesthetic tags

    Human score based: masterpiece, best quality, very aesthetic, aesthetic

    The very aesthetic and aesthetic tags are where this model diverges from the base, with the intent these can be used to guide the model toward a different aesthetic - a kind of house model bias.

    Meta tags

    absurdres, official art, etc

    Styles

    painterly, chiaroscuro, ligne claire, flat color, no lineart, blending, etc

    traditional media, oil painting \(medium\), watercolor \(medium\), etc

    Known Limitations & Issues:

    Some concept bleeding and instability is noticeable when using short prompts, especially tag-only prompts.

    Longer tag strings and natural language prompts describing the image in detail should help with this.

    This reflects how the model was trained with a combination of natural language and tags.

    Yes it does, the dataset is manually curated so not all characters you may be interested in up to the dataset cutoff date are included however.
    You can check the "[Optional] ComfyUI-Autocomplete-Plus prompt input assistance" section on the model card for details about a plugin that can make it easier to prompt characters.

    First thing i noticed is that Anima turbo lora breaks on the v3 which kinda sucks.
    Otherwise model looks really good, it's nice to have models with updated character knowledge

    Model looks so good but I can't get good hands, any tips?

    motimalu
    Author
    Jun 13, 2026· 1 reaction

    Hey @luckmiriwinds, some tips that might help:

    negative prompt:

    - use "artistic error, bad anatomy, bad hands"

    positive prompt:

    - use "masterpiece, best quality, very aesthetic", preferably at the start of the prompt

    - use tags defining what the character is doing with their hands, e.g. a gesture like "double v", see: https://danbooru.donmai.us/wiki_pages/tag_group%3Agestures


    The model can be pretty creative and errors seem to mostly occur in parts of the generation that aren't described in a way that it understands.


    Using natural language after the tags string should also help to guide the prompt understanding because both the base and this finetune use a combination of tags and NL captions.

    I don't do this enough either in the previews, mostly only when there is something that can't be described with just tags - but just using an LLM to simply expand your tags into NL helps.

    Some testing of those suggestions in a post, can kind of see how the model might melt digits together or hide the hands entirely without positive/negative prompts to define how they should appear:

    I think so, if Anima has a significant update then yes it would probably be worth trying to finetune it too.

    The new model with additional character training is fantastic! Characters like Cure Arcana Shadow are rendered very clearly and accurately.

    However, I feel that the training for characters from Pokémon Legends: Z-A is not very good. Considering when the game was announced and the amount of available material, I would have expected the model to recognize them by now. Were those characters intentionally excluded from the training data?

    motimalu
    Author
    Jun 20, 2026· 3 reactions

    Hello, and thank you!

    The dataset is manually curated and many characters that might have readily available material will not necessarily be included as a result.

    So it might be more correct to say some characters not being included is a more of a result of them not being intentionally sought out rather than being intentionally excluded.

    uraotoJun 21, 2026

    @motimalu 
    Thank you for taking the time to explain it so thoroughly. It's a bit disappointing that those characters haven't been trained, but I'm glad to learn that this model isn't built through an automated process and that the data is carefully curated by hand.

    I can hardly imagine how much effort goes into that. I'm looking forward to seeing how the Kirazuri model continues to evolve!

    anima配置要求应该比光辉低一些吧

    king6sssJul 11, 2026

    假如你你的显卡有能力跑光辉,就有能力去跑ANIMA。你可以尝试使用INT8量化方法去使用ANIMA,它的显存要求更小,质量损失肉眼不可见。至于加速可以搜索torch compile编译或者直接使用蒸馏模型。

    I think this is the best Anima fine-tune I have tried. Very new dataset, good style, and doesn't affect the natural language comprehension too much.

    Hello, thanks for the suggestion!

    I tried quantizing to int8 using convrot with https://github.com/silveroxides/convert_to_quant

    Looks like a ~20% generation speedup, and 4.2GB -> 2.3GB filesize with minimal degradation.

    Comparison: https://civitai.red/posts/29447606

    Added to hugging face for the moment (Civitai does not have an int8 model variant option):
    https://huggingface.co/motimalu/kirazuri-anima/blob/main/split_files/diffusion_models/anima-kirazuri-v3-int8convrot.safetensors

    Note: Int8 requires the latest ComfyUI and Ampere or newer Nvidia GPU.

    为什么这个模型使用风格lora效果很差,是需要额外提高Lora权重吗

    motimalu
    Author
    Jul 8, 2026

    (机器翻译)简而言之——是的,某些 LoRA 可能需要更高的强度才能在此处发挥作用。

    LoRA 在训练它们的“基础模型”上效果最佳。

    此外,根据特定 LoRA 的超参数,它们的效果可能会有所不同。

    由于该模型经过训练后与基础模型存在一定差异,LoRA 的整体效果有所降低。

    作为参考,使用 LoRA 对 SDXL 系列模型进行逐步微调时,例如 SDXL -> Illustrious -> Noobai 等,也会观察到类似的效果。

    1164912321Jul 14, 2026

    3.0对lora的效果非常好,你得看看你lora有没有冲突,再看一下lora权重自己微调一下,

    Hello, at present I don't have a good picture of how to approach Turbo LoRA/Model training for Anima, though I am interested in trying.
    I will be releasing a new version 4.0 of this checkpoint soon which I hope will address some of the issues observed with anatomy and compositions though.
