However, that version leaned too heavily toward a realistic style, which wasn't what I aimed for. I recalled that Nova Anime XL v5b had a distinct and beautiful 2D anime style, so I decided to merge Nowai 12.15 with Nova 5b to see if I could achieve a better balance.About This ModelThe result is this model, which offers a vibrant 2D anime aesthetic. However, it’s not perfect—details can be inconsistent and may require additional tweaking. I use this model with my custom detailer workflow in ComfyUI to enhance the output. If you’re not experienced with handling detail-related issues, this model might not be the best fit for you.Notes for UsersIntended Use: This model is primarily uploaded for personal storage on Civitai. However, I’m happy for others to try it out!Recommendation: For best results, pair it with a detailer workflow in ComfyUI or similar tools to address minor imperfections.Not for Beginners: If you’re not familiar with fixing detail issues, you might want to stick with more polished models.Feel free to experiment with it and share your results—I’d love to see what you create!
