¶ Anime Prompting with Danbooru Tags
I need to confess, I know nearly nothing about anime. But I've been so impressed with Animagine XL v3.1, I want to learn more.
Animagine, like most anime AI models, works with Danbooru tags. This means, for example, it is better to say "1girl, beautiful," than “beautiful woman,”. And instead of saying “short black pleated skirt”, it may work better to say “skirt, black skirt, short skirt, pleated skirt”.
This is a web database of Danbooru tags: Danbooru Tag Groups
And here are a few favorites:
Danbooru Tags for Verbs (activities)
Danbooru Tags for Image Composition (includes angles, techniques, patterns, and more…)
These are some artworks created in Animagine XL v3.1 which make use of Danbooru tags in the positive prompts.
The words “masterpiece, best quality, very aesthetic” are part of the Animagine style in MonAI. These terms are recommended by the makers of Animagine, and they are used in all of these renders.
Additional prompts appearing after “very aesthetic” (if any) are artist's names. Please check out MonAI Artist Study using Animagine XL v3.1 for more information.
