IMPORTANT. Read this first.

This checkpoint is not built for Qwen3.5-4B and not for the expanded adapter.

52-block DiT, but text conditioning is native qwen_3_06b_base only.

Insert blocks after the frozen 28-stem were prepared for that CLIP. Qwen3.5 will look like stock Pro52, not this mix.

Do not use qwen35_4b or Anima-3.8B-expanded_adapter.

Delta Mix

Checkpoint merge on Anima-3.8B (52-block). Anime and illustration first, with extra room for kemonomimi / light furry. Use it like a normal Anima model.

Text encoder: qwen_3_06b (native Anima CLIP). Do not swap in Qwen3.5-4B or an expanded adapter.

VAE: official Anima / Qwen-Image VAE.

Prompt

Positive starter: anime, masterpiece, best quality, ultra detailed, absurdres, sharp focus, intricate details, cinematic dramatic lighting, strong chiaroscuro,

Then the scene in tags or natural language, Anima-style. Rating tag if you use one (safe / sensitive / explicit).

Recommended

Steps: 30
CFG: 4.0–5.5
Sampler: Euler ancestral
Scheduler: normal

Resolution: same as Anima-3.8B (1024-class and up, as VRAM allows).

LoRA

28-block and 2.9B LoRAs need a remap on this 52-block file. Use:

Anima 52 LoRA Patch

https://github.com/bestluner-create/ComfyUI-Anima52-LoRAPatch

Start around 0.65. Do not stack stock Load LoRA on the same old LoRA.

v2.0

Current version on this page.

This mix uses: Anima-3.8B Anima Aesthetic 2B Aura Rising aniMurr v02

Same text encoder and VAE as v1.0. File: animaDeltaMix38B_v20.safetensors

v3.0

New bake on the same 52-block 0.6B chassis

Both Gen-1 and Gen-2 use copy-body (adaLN stays on the chassis)

Denser materials and small surface detail vs v2

Same 2B donors — last styled bake on this pair
