A Reddit user, skeptical of Anima's anime focus, decided to test its versatility for non-anime art. Initially, artist tags like '@moebius' failed, so they trained their first LoRA on a 12GB RTX 3060 using Anima Trainflow. The process was fast and easy, yielding strong results. They then explored prompting by mixing styles like Baroque painting with 1990s 3D games, generating 20-40 images per seed. The variety in styles and faces per seed was impressive.
To refine prompts, the user uploaded favorite images to Gemini (or ChatGPT for better analysis) for detailed style descriptions, then fed those back into Anima. This iterative approach produced consistent, high-quality outputs. The user confirms Anima's claim of extreme style versatility—it only needs a slight nudge to adopt almost any artistic style, even without anime. The LoRA training example will be shared separately.
