Cinematic Soft Anime Style

Important Update Note

I recently found that, with Anima, using CFG around 2.0 can produce images that stay closer to the trained dataset than the CFG 5.5 setting I had been using before.

The older sample images generated with CFG 5.5 have been kept as they are, since they still show a more polished Anima-style interpretation of this LoRA.

I have also uploaded new CFG 2.0 sample images to the image section below this LoRA page, so you can see examples that are more faithful to the trained tattoo dataset.

CFG Guidance

• CFG 2.0: More dataset-faithful output. closer reproduction of the trained visual style.

• CFG 4.0: Balanced setting. Similar to Civitai's default preview style.

• CFG 5.0 to 5.5: More polished Anima-style interpretation. Often produces attractive anime images, but may be less faithful to the original dataset details.

Cinematic Soft Anime Style is a light style LoRA for Anima Base v1.0, trained to add soft cinematic lighting, gentle color balance, atmospheric depth, and a quiet emotional mood to anime-style images.

It works best for calm character scenes, rainy streets, cozy interiors, soft window light, night scenes, train platforms, flower shops, bedrooms, galleries, and other quiet cinematic compositions.

This is a V1 / pilot version trained on a small curated dataset, so the effect is intentionally subtle rather than overpowering. It is best used as a soft cinematic atmosphere enhancer rather than a heavy style replacement.
