    FOR ANIMA VERSION PLEASE CHECK THE VERSION INFO ON THE SIDE

    -----

    EXPLANATION BELOW IS FOR ILLUSTRIOUS VERSION

    Kaoru Sayama from Yakuza 2; trained using her Yakuza Kiwami 2 version using game screenshots and 3D model in Blender from various angles

    It's a 3D character in Illustrious, so it kinda struggled with that. I tagged the training images with "3d, realistic" but using both prompts during generation gave unsatisfactory result. Omitting both will turn the result into anime style which is probably what some people want but the thing is in anime style it tend to give the model side bangs/side lock which is not accurate and I have no idea where that came from.

    In the end I found the best result is by having "realistic" in positive and "3d" in negative. Then add things like "2d" or "anime shading" in positive to further flatten the style but not turning it into full anime style. Check my example pics for more.

    For the look:

    black hair, short ponytail, updo ponytail, left side swept bangs,

    Normal outfit:

    black suit, white high collar shirt, black pants, black high heels, necklace,

    After bath (choose between body towel or bath robe):

    head towel, body towel, bath robe, necklace

    Note that the necklace gemstone is supposed to be purple but somehow it often becomes green instead

    Let me know if you guys want some more characters from Yakuza/Like A Dragon/Judgment series

    Description

    I've been tinkering with Anima for a while, still not sure if I will stick with it or back to Illustrious as training Anima is more expensive (because of the license) and I'm almost running out of yellow buzz.

    For the rest of the details (hair, outfit, etc) please check the sample pictures I uploaded. Anima is bad at CG/realistic style so it's kinda stupid for me training a character like this for my first attempt. By default the 3D style is strong but you can try finding combination of checkpoint, style LoRAs, and prompts to create one style you're satisfied with
