Kaede / Nyu / Lucy – Elfen Lied (Manga Version)
A detailed LoRA of Kaede, the central Diclonius girl from the Elfen Lied manga — encompassing her three appearances: as her gentle persona Nyu, the conflicted ruthless Kaede/Lucy, and her during her childhood.
This LoRA is tuned for manga-style accuracy, with flexible options for both her soft and violent expressions, hair lengths, and eye colors depending on the desired depiction.

Recommended Usage
This LoRA performs best in semi-realistic or manga-style render settings.
- Use 0.8–1.2 weight depending on how strong you want her facial and horn features to appear.
- Combining inpainting or pose control works well for switching between her personas (e.g., kaede_nyu → kaede_lucy).
- Use ADetailer to refine her face for a sharper, more manga-like expression and clean line definition.
- Tips: Add small_horns and/or white_horns for full Diclonius form; omit them for a more human look, by placing those tags in the Negative Prompt.
- Lighting with high contrast and minimal saturation enhances the emotional tone of Lucy’s scenes.
