Update1:
For the info, check the "About this version" section.
The images are a vague recreation of the initial ones (without the chibi tag, which you can still use), and it's not all of them, but it gives the general idea of how it's different
General:
So I said I would probably try doing a style for this after doing the experimental character set, so here it is. This is still an early version - I didn't fix the captions at all after generating the captions, and judging by a few ones I opened when generating the previews, there's quite a lot of nonsense in them that doesn't fit the images at all (still works quite well regardless).
I think before I try resuming training, I'll have to fix the captions and retrain, I'll think about it.
If you're curious, NSFW does seem to work still with the style.
Tags and information
Use tags:
@ir4stya_style, no lineart, chibi
One thing to note, the focus is on the chibi look, used about 100 images focused on the human characters, with a few animals and objects as well.

Description
Alright, this sure took a lot of tries, and it's still not ideal. I only figured out I could've used "striped hair" tag at version 9...
Either way, this definitely isn't a direct translation from the first version, and it probably won't be the last one.
What's different:
the hair stripes are more apparent now (thanks to the tag - use "striped hair"), they should work better with character tags now - first image generated of Fern from Sousou no Frieren is in the examples
chibi tag was removed from caption, as I couldn't decide if it even fit some of the images in the dataset. You can use it to try and control how "chibi" the characters are - with the tag they should be shorter and more... you know, "chibi"
I tried adding "eyelashes" tag to try and control how the female eyes are drawn and make it more consistent - as of now it seems to work, but not all that consistently
the "solid circle eyes" tag may be useful to make eye appearance more consistent
there's two tags for the nose that generally work: dot nose (for the most part there's no need to add it, as it's more or less the default look), pointy nose
I think that's about all.
One issue is that eyes can still be inconsistent (the eyelash color for female characters is either the same color as the one you define, like "blue eyes", sometimes it's quite a darker tone, or they're just black altogether). They also likely won't work well with some of the expression tags from danbooru --> fyi, the expressions in the dataset were those:
