JANIMA is a high‑quality text‑to‑image model finetuned from anima‑base‑v1.0, a 2B‑parameter anime‑focused diffusion model created by CircleStone Labs and Comfy Org. This checkpoint aims to keep Anima’s flexibility for anime and stylized illustration while pushing sharper details, cleaner anatomy, and more coherent compositions out of the box.

JANIMA is designed for:

High‑detail anime characters and illustrations
Clean linework with crisp eyes and facial features
Richer backgrounds and small object details without heavy post‑processing
General anime/stylized art (not photorealistic/realism work)

Model behavior

Inherits Anima’s strengths for anime and other non‑photorealistic content; realism is still not its main target.
Tends to produce more refined edges, textures, and micro‑details at the same resolution and steps compared to the base.
Works well as a “base” to stack LoRAs and style adapters on top, since it does not force a single over‑fitted style.

Installing

JANIMA_v1.safetensors goes in ComfyUI/models/diffusion_models
qwen_3_06b_base.safetensors goes in ComfyUI/models/text_encoders
qwen_image_vae.safetensors goes in ComfyUI/models/vae

Recommended settings

These are good starting points; adjust per your workflow and hardware:

Sampler: er_sde or similar modern sampler optimized for Anima‑based checkpoints
CFG: around 5 (you can push slightly higher or lower depending on prompt strength)
Steps: 24–30 (add more steps up to 50 if you are not planning to hi-res and upscale)

Resolution: 512 - 1536 ^ 2 resolution supported.

Quality tags (optional)

You can prepend your prompts with quality tags like:

masterpiece, highres, absurdres, newest, best quality, score_7

These help bias the model toward cleaner, higher‑effort outputs.

Suggested negative prompt

A solid general‑purpose negative prompt for JANIMA:

worst quality, low quality, lowres, score_1, score_2, score_3, blurry, jpeg artifacts, , long fingers, sepia, bad anatomy, missing fingers, watermark, artist name

Tweak as needed.
