<h1 id="revolutionary-girl-utena-()-verpua71j">Revolutionary Girl Utena (少女革命ウテナ)</h1>A shoujo manga and anime series that started with the comic in 1996, followed by the anime series in 1997. The manga was by author Chiho Saito (さいとうちほ), who was part of the Be-Papas (ビーパパス) production group responsible for the anime's production.Utena changed a lot of things, and it came at a time when its thought-provoking and very personally interpretable writing was especially appreciated. The elements of things like an apocalypse were also big on the public consciousness with the coming millennium.<h2 id="how-to-use-this-lora-b4s4ltigl">How to Use This LoRA</h2>I trained this LoRA to capture the aesthetic of the series. I went through and took hundreds of screencaps of the remastered Blu-ray release, then distilled them down to what I thought would broadly represent the feel, or "ki", of Utena.Originally trained for 1.5, I also trained another for Pony, and now I decided to try out the greater abilities of Illustrious. It does a really good job, but Illustrious checkpoints have a wide range of styles and ability to work with LoRAs, so the tendency towards instability in Illustrious may require you to try a few different models to get the results you want.As you may notice in the gallery, it does have capabilities to recognize some characters, though it benefits from guidance with those characters, as you will also notice. If it's too ready with the bindi (forehead decoration), it can usually be avoided by putting bindi or forehead dot in negative prompts, but it's also super easy to just edit out in a finished picture. Characters were not the main focus here, however.Independently, it does help with creating bishounen and ikemen characters, especially when used with a complementary checkpoint. Naturally, it does tend to work better with anime checkpoints. The only thing I did with the images in the gallery was to upscale them, as usual, so you can see what the LoRA does without much else.I recommend using it at a weight anywhere from 0.8-1.0. A lot will depend on how well the checkpoint and the LoRA work together.Enjoy your own private revolution...your romantic apocalypse!As usual, if you'd like to support my work, please <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://subscribestar.adult/hushicho">feel free</a>.
