Animagine XL 4.0 Opt

[Overview] | Animagine XL 4.0, also stylized as Anim4gine, is the ultimate anime-themed finetuned SDXL model and the latest installment of Animagine XL series. Despite being a continuation, the model was retrained from Stable Diffusion XL 1.0 with a massive dataset of 8.4M diverse anime-style images from various sources with the knowledge cut-off of January 7th 2025 and finetuned for approximately 2650 GPU hours. Similar to the previous version, this model was trained using tag ordering method for the identity and style training.

With the release of Animagine XL 4.0 Opt (Optimized), the model has been further refined with an additional dataset, improving stability, anatomy accuracy, noise reduction, color saturation, and overall color accuracy. These enhancements make Animagine XL 4.0 Opt more consistent and visually appealing while maintaining the signature quality of the series.
