What is this lora This is a style lora used to recreate the style of the 2007 anime from Gainax’s Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagan. This is one of my favorite series and holds a special place in my heart for when anime really hit home with me, it’s sort of a deconstruction of the mecha anime series that Gianax was responsible for creating in its own way, it explores all the overused tropes of the genre but executes them perfectly. It’s the perfect companion piece to their masterpiece Gunbuster, watch both and you can see what I mean. Every arc is a story about triumph over overwhelming oppression and grief and then the reset and kick in the ass we need to pick ourselves up and do it to overcome it again. They take you to the darkest places emotionally and then shoot you right back up to the top. The art style of the show plays around really well with lighting in both dark and bright scenes. And the motion and animation style is very interesting, things move really fast and quick in bursts of action. They do some kind of wide shot with fast animation for action, then cut to a reaction with a medium close up of the characters. The animation is top notch, and it’s funny you can tell when theyve spent all their budget and then you get some really poorly done work in the next episode but it’s all worth it for those 5-10 mins of S-tier animation. This style lora, its purpose is to get the style of the show: visuals and motion. It’s not a character lora, but with proper prompting the characters will come out. Trigger word: GurrenLagannStyle (You do not need to add any other descriptions for anime or animation style in the prompt, it should make it the style without any other prompting). In fact I would recommend against adding anime keywords to the prompt as it will create more of a bias from the base model which is now trained on anime much better than before. The trigger word may not even be needed but I put it in anyway. All the characters from the first season of the show are in the training data. So there is no dataset from post-time skip. There is data from the Yoko Pieces of Sweet Stars music video. I elected not to include parallel works since the style is not the same. The images are from the show, while the clips are all from the remastered movie #1. So there are some new scenes too. Here is how to recreate some characters (check the captions data for more) Yoko: A woman with long red spiky hair tied in a long pony tail and chopsticks and skull accessory, red flame-patterned black bikini top, light pink scarf, black shorts with a white studded belt, pink thigh-high stockings, fingerless black gloves, and white and red boots. She holds a massive dark grey, hexagonal-barreled rifle. Simon: A young man (or boy) with spiky dark blue hair, a blue jacket over his bare torso, and red goggles on his head Kamina: A muscular man with spiky blue hair and blue spiral tattoos. He is wearing orange frameless pointed triangle sunglasses and a red tattered cape. He has bandages on his forearms Nia: A young woman with wavy blonde and light blue hair and teal eyes with red pupils cross-like in a floral shape. She wears a pink and white dress with a large gold belt and cuffs. And an elaborate golden collar with red and green gems, a red tie, and a pink and white hair accessory. Gurren & Lagann: A humanoid mecha (might want to describe about the face on his torso etc, but its not captioned much). Be sure to mention the samurai horns on the head if you want that etc. Every form of them is in the data too (flying mode, battle ship etc.) Viral: A man with shaggy blonde hair that covers one eye. He wears a jacket with a white fur-lined collar and red shoulder pads. Mecha: All mecha in this are labeled using mecha you can say like whale-like mecha or turle-like mecha etc. to get different types. There is probably all the different ones in the training data. Just use this phrase mecha to trigger it. Beastmen = creature , ie turtle-like creature, etc. Buta: A small, brown, pill-shaped pink pig-mole creature with two long, thin antennae, a curly tail, whiskers and round sunglasses Lordgenome: A large, extremely muscular man with a shaved head, a dark stylized beard, and intense, light-colored eyes. He is shirtless wearing a dark garment with two large, silver, U-shaped bracelets on his arms. (I guess I missed captioning the beard, try adding that word in too) There is more, I should have covered every character major or minor in the first season. So try yourself to describe them or check the captions. Recommended Settings: Do NOT use euler, it will distort all the motion. Use sampler dpm _sde. And split from the high to the low at 11th step for 20 steps. I find best result of 8 shift high and 6 shift on low. Though 8/8 shift is ok too. Shift 5 has distortion. Too few frames may mean the style wont trigger in the low model, so try to keep above 40 (ideally 65-81 frames) but test and let me know. Adding a little red mecha toy in the
