Same idea as the 3.8 file: anime / illustration first, some kemonomimi. Use it like a normal Anima model.Text encoder: qwen_3_06b VAE: official Anima / Qwen-Image VAE Prompt: anime, masterpiece, best quality, ultra detailed, absurdres, sharp focus, intricate details, cinematic dramatic lighting, strong chiaroscuro, Ksampler Steps: 30/40 CFG: 4.0–5.5 Sampler: Euler ancestral Scheduler: normaldetail / upscale Steps: 10–20 CFG: 2.0–3.5 Sampler: DPM++ 2M Scheduler: sgm_uniform <img src="https://image.civitai.com/xG1nkqKTMzGDvpLrqFT7WA/37d47ea2-50ee-4bf3-8d43-d6e588688fac/original=true/37d47ea2-50ee-4bf3-8d43-d6e588688fac.jpeg" />These files are 40-block Anima-2.9, same chassis as the original 2.9B. Stock Comfy often loads them as 28 blocks with no hard error — that is the colored static.You need the loader patch from the original 2.9B author:<a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://github.com/gazingstars123/ComfyUI-Anima-2.9B">https://github.com/gazingstars123/ComfyUI-Anima-2.9B</a>Original 2.9B page (same depth expansion):<a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/models/2855007/anima-29b">https://civarchive.com/models/2855007/anima-29b</a>Put the folder in custom_nodes, restart, then check the startup/load log for 40 blocks, not 28.Also still need: official Anima / qwen_image VAE, CLIP qwen_3_06b_base + qwen_image, 16ch latent (not EmptyLatentImage 4ch), AuraFlow shift ~3–4.5. Delta Mix nodes are not required just to run the baked checkpoint.
