rank128 + 20 two-character images killed the v1 ahoge bleed and body fusion on this Anima dual-character LoRA. Lap-sit stays a Qwen3 text-encoder limit; sweet spot is ep140.
One Anima (Qwen-Image DiT) LoRA, two characters, trained on RunPod: can they touch? Hugs and piggyback hold, lap-sit fuses; stacked limbs survive, interleaved break. Best at ep100, Turbo.
Hexer Minimal Toon's new Anima V1 is a DiT checkpoint, not an SDXL one: 4.1GB bf16, separate VAE/text-encoder ComfyUI folders, Anima-only LoRA, and a non-commercial license the Civitai page doesn't show. What changes vs Illustrious v3.1 before you load it.
On Anima-Base, my character LoRA bent its legs even on standing. Adding upright references didn't fix it; cutting 36 posed full-body images did. Subtract, don't add.
Rebaked a WAI-Anima character LoRA onto upstream Anima-Base with off-distribution Gemini data. Trigger-only usable, face fidelity beats v1, intakes still cap out.
Tested on M1 Max 64GB ComfyUI: one character LoRA across 6 Anima derivatives, same prompt/seed. Trigger-only never stabilizes, RDBT bolts to beast-ears, structure tags fix it.
Anima is a Cosmos-based DiT, not SDXL, so one Anima LoRA loads on every derivative checkpoint. 20+ CivitAI Anima models sorted by type, aesthetic, and prompt adherence.
Tested on M1 Max ComfyUI: two WAI-Anima character LoRAs in one image. Side-by-side works, but only non-overlapping inpaint keeps the design pixel-exact; Qwen-Image-Edit elongates the side ponytail even with training tags, and overlapping interaction poses jam at skeleton extraction.
WAI-Anima LoRA trained only on images the model itself made. Distribution shift drops to ~zero, so the sweet spot hits epoch 20 not 150 (7.5x faster). What the trigger bakes in vs what still needs tags, plus pose/angle control.
Tested on ComfyUI with Anima Turbo LoRA: hair intakes don't fire from the single tag. The 27-condition recipe — character NL reference + negative identity strip + (hair intakes:1.5) + 22.5° upper-front camera — also revealed the generic prompt was accidentally a Blue Archive character spec, and that Kanon's whole female cast has intakes as a cluster prior.
On M1 Max with Anima-Base v1.0 and WAI-Anima v1: the official negative is short. Trim the long Illustrious bad-hands list, move structure to positive tags, keep `safe` upfront.
