    This model is trained on the 1997 anime Berserk. I basically went through the whole series and screen captured about 200 images, I don't know why but the style really didn't want to stick until really high steps so this LoRa took about 48960 steps, it took some time but here we are. As always have fun generating!

    I also have a FLUX version here: https://civarchive.com/models/768186/berserk-1997-style-flux

    If you want to support me financially or request a custom LoRa you can do so here: KoFi

    Usage:

    Trigger word: berserk

    Strength: I keep it at 0.8 or 1 but feel free to experiment.

    Additional trigger words for characters, just add these names in the prompt if you want any of these characters:

    -guts

    -griffith

    -casca

    trigger words for these characters may not work all that well I will try to fix this in a new version.

    I'm guessing this is only Golden Age Arc so probably no prompts for Black Swordsman Guts, Berserker Armor, or the Dragonslayer?

    No sorry, as it says in the title I trained it only on screengrabs from the original 1997 anime so it only has knowledge from that.

    Can you please tetrain model but add in dataset images from other anime, because it's seems kinda overtrained on images of Guts and Griffith

    Have you seen Darkstalkers (1997)?

    I think it may fit pretty well

    @Rating_Agent It's not overtrained, the problem is in the trigger word. I realized after training I should have put a unique tag like b3rs3rk or something instead of berserk so it defaults to what the base model knows and it's a lot of images of guts and griffith in the base model. I'll retrain it in the future with a unique tag see how it goes.
    As for Darkstalkers no I haven't seen it looks interesting, I'll give it a watch if I have time. For training I don't like to mix different datasets like pulling them from danbooru or stuff like that I try to get blu-ray versions of movies/anime for best quality, so if I make a model I'd make it a seperate one so that the style sticks as well as it can.

    A great model, containing both the style of Berserk 1997 and the characters from there.

    I haven't experimented with it much yet, but it seems pretty stable to me, showing mostly the desired result, which is what I need.

    Thanks to whoever added this, it's great

    Is it possible if you can try to make a lora of the armor that Guts worn in Episode one of berserk 1997? when he fought the snake baron? because I'm getting bored from the berserker armor stuff, And I like the armor that Guts worn in conviction and lost children.

    @kernsramsey286 Sorry, I’ve had to slow down on creating models recently due to time and financial reasons, so I’m closing shop on CivitAI. I still post some free models on my Ko-Fi page whenever I can, and if you'd like, you can also request a commission there. Appreciate your understanding.

    @NeoWave Alright! Thank you!
