🎨 See-Krea2 Ultimate — Anime Text-to-Image Workflow for Krea 2

🎨 See-Krea2 Ultimate — Anime Text-to-Image Workflow for Krea 2 (v1.1)

ComfyUI workflow for See-Krea2 Genesis V2, my anime checkpoint on Krea 2 Turbo. Write an idea, get a detailed anime illustration — with an optional Qwen3-VL prompt enhancer, an optional LoRA stack and two finishing branches. Every saved PNG carries Civitai-readable generation data: upload it and Civitai fills in prompt, seed, sampler and the model link by itself.

How it works: 🧩 load models → 🧬 optional LoRAs → ✍️ prompt → ✨ optional enhancer (turns tags or German input into one English Krea-style paragraph) → 🎨 base image at 768 × 1368 (9:16, 1 MP) → 🔬 Detail Refiner (AnimeSharp 2× → 1.5 MP → 8 steps at denoise 0.20) and/or 🔼 Tiled Upscale (1.5×, tile by tile) → 💾 every stage saves its own PNG with Civitai metadata. Everything is grouped, color-coded, switchable with one click and documented with notes inside the workflow.

• Ships with: Detail Refiner ON · Prompt Enhancer, LoRA Stack and Tiled Upscale OFF

• Base settings: 10 steps, CFG 1.0, euler_ancestral / beta — the model page's starting point is 8 steps, euler / simple. Everything is set centrally in ⚙️ Generation + Hi-Res Settings

• Triggers: seesee_elf, seesee_kitsune · pixel look: pixel art or 16Bit

• Performance reference: RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB with the INT8 ConvRot file ≈ 40–60 s for base + Detail Refiner, ≈ 140 s with Tiled Upscale on top

📥 Required Models

• See-Krea2 Genesis V2 checkpoint → ComfyUI/models/diffusion_models/
  Download (version Genesis-V2): https://civitai.red/models/2846618/see-krea2

• VAE (Qwen-Image VAE) → ComfyUI/models/vae/
  Download (version VAE): https://civitai.red/models/2846618/see-krea2

• Text encoder Qwen3-VL 4B, FP8 (BF16 also available) → ComfyUI/models/text_encoders/
  Download (version Text Encoders): https://civitai.red/models/2846618/see-krea2

• 2x-AnimeSharpV4_RCAN.safetensors by Kim2091 → ComfyUI/models/upscale_models/
  Download: https://github.com/Kim2091/Kim2091-Models/releases/download/2x-AnimeSharpV4/2x-AnimeSharpV4_RCAN.safetensors

Checkpoint precision: INT8 ConvRot (workflow default, 13.15 GB), FP8 scaled (13.14 GB), MXFP8 (14.51 GB), NVFP4 (7.67 GB), INT4 ConvRot (6.90 GB) or the BF16 master (26.28 GB). The compressed formats need matching support in your ComfyUI; file size is not a VRAM requirement.

⚠️ Civitai renames files on download (e.g. seeKrea2_genesisV2_….safetensors). Open the workflow and pick your file in each loader.
The CLIP loader type stays on krea2.

Optional:

• Qwen3VL-4B-Instruct-Q4_K_M.gguf for the ✨ Prompt Enhancer — downloads automatically on first use into ComfyUI/models/LLM/GGUF/
  Source: https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen3-VL-4B-Instruct-GGUF

• Compatible Krea 2 LoRAs for the 🧬 LoRA Stack — add their trigger words to your prompt yourself

🧩 Required Custom Nodes

Install via ComfyUI-Manager (search the name) or git clone into custom_nodes/:

• SeeSee Civitai Metadata — the save nodes: Civitai-readable metadata in every PNG — https://github.com/seesee75-commits/ComfyUI-SeeSee-Civitai-Metadata

• rgthree-comfy — group switches, sampling settings, image comparers — https://github.com/rgthree/rgthree-comfy

• ComfyUI-Lora-Manager — LoRA stack + trigger words — https://github.com/willmiao/ComfyUI-Lora-Manager

• ComfyUI-QwenVL — GGUF prompt enhancer — https://github.com/1038lab/ComfyUI-QwenVL

• ComfyUI-Easy-Use — prompt-rules text node — https://github.com/yolain/ComfyUI-Easy-Use

• ComfyUI_UltimateSDUpscale — Tiled Upscale — https://github.com/ssitu/ComfyUI_UltimateSDUpscale

Needs a recent ComfyUI with Krea 2 support and subgraphs (tested on ComfyUI 0.33.0, frontend 1.49.6).

🛠️ Installation

1. Install the 6 node packs with ComfyUI-Manager → restart ComfyUI.

2. Download checkpoint, VAE, text encoder and AnimeSharp into the folders above.

3. Open the workflow and select your files in the loaders.

4. Write your idea in ✍️ Positive Prompt, switch groups on or off with the rgthree toggles, hit Run. Images land in output/ as See-Krea2_…, See-Krea2-Refined_… and See-Krea2-Tiled-Upscale_….

🏷️ Sharing your images on Civitai

The save nodes write the generation data Civitai reads. Upload the PNG as it is and Civitai shows prompt, seed, steps, sampler, CFG and size, and links See-Krea2 and your LoRAs automatically — no picking resources by hand. The ComfyUI workflow stays inside the PNG, so anyone can drag it back into ComfyUI. Editing or converting the image before upload can strip that data.

📝 Notes

• ✨ Prompt Enhancer: check 👁️ Final Prompt Preview before important renders — the 4B model can misread details. It has its own seed; keep it to reproduce an expansion.

• CFG 1.0: the negative prompt has no effect. Describe the visible state you want instead ("bare hands" rather than "no gloves").

• 🔬 Detail Refiner and 🔼 Tiled Upscale both start from the base image. Hi-Res Amount 1.5 means a 1.5 MP target in the refiner and 1.5× width and height in the tiled upscale.

• Tiled Upscale seams: if you see lines, lower denoise to 0.15; with little VRAM try 768 px tiles or Tiled Decode.

• Adult content: consenting-adult content only, where platform and law allow.
