Anima Turbo — anime generation + LLLite inpainting

What this repo is: the Anima Turbo denoiser, the LLLite inpainting patch, a Qwen3-0.6B text encoder and the Qwen-Image VAE — weights only, not a retrain. The settings below are the values these weights are actually run with day to day.

Samples

**prompt:** `masterpiece, best quality, anime illustration of a girl in a school uniform standing on a rooftop at sunset, detailed cel shading, clean linework, dramatic sky` — 1024×1024, 10 steps, guidance 1.0, seed 21	**prompt:** `masterpiece, best quality, anime illustration, a silver-armored knight with a glowing blue sword in a ruined cathedral, dramatic lighting, detailed` — 1024×1024, 10 steps, guidance 1.0, seed 7
**prompt:** `masterpiece, best quality, anime background art of a quiet japanese street in summer, blue sky, detailed clouds, vibrant colors, no people` — 1024×1024, 10 steps, guidance 1.0, seed 22	**prompt:** `masterpiece, best quality, anime illustration, a young woman with long black hair in a white summer dress standing in a flower meadow, blue sky` — 1024×1024, 10 steps, guidance 1.0, seed 21

Inpainting (img2img + mask)

**source** — the meadow render above, seed 21	**mask** — ellipse over head and torso; white = repaint	**result** — prompt changed to `…a young woman with vivid red hair…`, seed 43. Hair tone, eyes and bodice change; the meadow, pose, dress and framing are untouched.

What inpainting does and does not do here

• Recolouring and restyling inside the mask works well — hair colour, eye colour, garment detail. Everything outside the mask is preserved exactly.
• Adding new objects is unreliable. wearing a wide straw sun hat on the same mask produced no hat, only a slight expression change. LLLite is a control patch conditioning an existing composition, not an instruction editor — write the whole scene as you want it, and expect changes in the masked region to stay close to the underlying shapes.
• Without a mask, img2img is effectively a no-op — the control signal reproduces the input. Style-transfer prompts return the source image unchanged. If nothing is changing, check that a mask was actually sent.

Notes and gotchas

• strength here is ControlNet conditioning strength, not img2img denoise strength — it scales how hard the LLLite patch holds the source, and the engine also accepts it as control_strength. Lower it to let the masked region drift further from the original.
• Quality tags matter. This model responds strongly to booru-style prefixes (masterpiece, best quality, anime illustration, …); without them output drifts toward generic digital painting.
• Photographic prompts are off-domain. Asking for a studio photograph yields painterly, illustration-inflected results — use a photo model for that and this one for anime.
• ≈5.4 GB VRAM resident at 1024². Generation is fast enough (≈6 s) that iterating on prompts is interactive.
