    v10 showcase resolution 832×1536 / no Hires, no ADetailer a little more about v10 below 🔽


    💌

    A small thank you —~

    to those who tinker with me,
    the dreamers,
    the enjoyers :)

    I hope you're having fun exploring v10. 💗

    Animij

    Hey guys,

    u asked abt it. 😊 Now I present to u: Animij ~ retro-modern soft cored. 4 different styles ~ moaarrrrrr possibilities?! 😋

    For a long time I asked myself why merge an anime model ~ when there are a wealth of great models that serve this genre?

    Ur voice is important to me, so I took the plunge. U know me, I like things different, and so Animij spawns as an anime style that may not suit everyone's taste ~ but maybe urs?

    Animij is coming

    • soft

    • drawn

    • vibrant

    • retro touched

    • with a touch of eroticism

    • minimalistic, but detailed

    • and full of emotions

    Tasty for more? Feel free to play around ~ every version comes with her own playground ☺


    💌 NEW


    ✦ Version 10 ~ Core ID

    💙 Animij is an ID model.

    What does that mean?

    💙Animij has character ;)

    • clear subject separation
    • soft isofocus / gentle background falloff

    • light defines form
    • soft-gloss skin highlights
    • clean, controlled speculars

    • color interaction (warm ↔ cool)
    • background supports subjects

    • playful / confident posing
    • slight perspective presence

    • restrained, accessible expressions
    • calm / soft / slightly playful emotion

    • clean edges + soft rendering balance
    • semi-anime aesthetic

    • lighting with behavior
    • flexible character identity

    💙 v10 was created from a feeling of gratitude.

    So many heartwarming words touched me.

    …they stayed.

    This is how v10 emerged ☺

    For this moment ~ I’m a little quieter in words

    So I let the images speak.

    I hope you enjoy.

    —~ Reij ♥


    Reij's Animij v10 Sweetspots

    This is how I personally like to use Animij v10.


    UniPC Karras

    • 24–28 steps

    • CFG 5.0–5.5

    • 832 x 1216 / 832 x 1536

    clean / balanced / soft finish


    DPM++ 2S a Karras

    • 24–28 steps

    • CFG 5.0–5.3

    • 832 x 1216 / 832 x 1536

    more punch / stronger contrast / more energy


    DPM++ 2M Karras

    • 26–30 steps

    • CFG 5.1–5.6

    • 832 x 1216 / 832 x 1536

    stable / clean / slightly sharper


    Euler a

    • 20–24 steps

    • CFG 5.5–6.5

    • 832 x 1216 / 832 x 1536

    more playful / more variation


    ✦ Version 9

    "Sparks Found in the Space Inbetween Shadows"

    hey friends, ☺

    i’m not a fan of comparisons, but what stands out with v9 is that it works both with various quality tags and negative prompts ~ and also without them.

    Adetailer? optional.
    in some showcase images i simply didn’t use it ^^

    hires, i remain a fan of upscaling, just to give the model more room to unfold. but the model can be used without it.

    steps? i prefer around 40, but 20 have their own charm too. entirely up to your taste ^^

    for different hardware, whether onsite or local. i’ll only be able to test onsite later, so it was important to me to try the model locally first with smaller settings :)

    sampler? feel free to experiment ~ currently i’m using Euler a and DPM++ 2M Karras.

    ✅ ladies? yes
    ✅ gentlemen? yes

    ✅ 🥵 nsfw? yes
    ✅ 🦊 furry? yes

    i love it ♥
    i hope you enjoy the new playground just as much :)

    with ♥ Reij

    hey friends,
    your feedback is important to me ☺

    That's why there is now the first Animij update ^-^
    v1.2 retains the style of v1, is a little more refined in the rendering and spawns with more options to use quality tags or leave them out to suit your taste ☺

    I hope you have a lot of fun being creative

    Like the previous versions of Animij, v6 is a separate model, not an update ☺

    ~ blending anime, semi-realistic, and comic-inspired elements.


    ⚠️

    ♥ settings:

    🛠️ General settings I like to use: Euler a, 30+ steps, and a resolution around 832 × 1216. But of course ~ u’re warmly invited to be creative here too! 🌸✨

    During merging, special care was taken so you don’t need any quality tags for great results ~ and u can even leave out the negative prompt if u like.

    Just create the way u love 💖

    Most importantly: I want to give both prompt pros and new creative AI minds the same freedom to explore – just prompt whatever comes to mind and let the magic happen 💖


    I am happy if u enjoy and stay curious abt ur results ♥ best regards Reij


    Version 5

    hey friends ☺

    V5 spawns soft kissed by V1 ~ not back to the roots but with retro shine and velvety soft ~ comes with more freedom in the quality prompt design ~ more user-friendly for beginners and prompt professionals, whether realism or toon, V5 stays true to her style.

    I am happy if u enjoy and stay curious abt ur results

    with ~♥ Reij

    Regarding the quality tags, u are cordially invited to let off steam creatively or to give more freedom ~ according to ur taste ☺


    Version 4

    from minimalist to fine details ~ ur prompt, ur fantasy ~ remains anime-based even with realistic attention. Through self-determined prompting more play in style variations: from matt to bright, accentuated or rich in detail, there is always a touch of detail, whether as a classic 2D or with more depth.

    I am happy if u enjoy and stay curious abt ur creations

    with ♥

    -prompt

    bad quality, worst quality, lowres, jpeg artifacts, bad anatomy, signature, watermark, censored


    Version 3 ~ drawn symbiosis

    v3 is the most drawn version so far. The focus is on the connection between AI and creative intuition ~ a quiet, painterly collaboration.

    Born digital, but with the spirit of analogue: Every stroke appears as if it were drawn by hand ~ clear, accentuated, deliberately placed. It's not paper, but a canvas. Not a brush, but still a brush stroke.

    v3 brings the “Drawn Touch” back to the fore ~ as a homage to drawing itself and as an expression of a new aesthetic: where AI does not replace, but accompanies.


    The Art of Animij ~ where details speak

    In Animij, details whisper of emotion ~ a stroke of storytelling. Eyes shimmer with depth, reflecting unspoken dreams. Light and shadow dance across soft gradients, giving each face a warmth that feels almost alive.

    The magic lies in the small things: the delicate blush of a cheek, the glint of light on a ring, the way colors breathe with life. Nothing is static~ every detail wanna invite u: wanna come deeper? making each piece feel like a moment suspended between fantasy and reality.

    Wanna look closer? The story is in the details.
