Attempts to replicate style of the original Digimon Adventure anime. I keep seeing my ancient pictures on a SD1.5 Digimon style hitting reaction milestones (meaning that model, or at least its gallery, is still popular), and nobody had made an Illustrious version of the style yet, so when I saw that Toei was releasing an official upload on YouTube (with English and Spanish dubs) in good quality (Well as good quality as you’ll get from this show. See below) I decided I’d do it myself. Since training a style model on only 8 human characters is a bad idea, to ensure this can do more than/doesn’t default to drawing children, to enhance compatibility with Digimon character models who would overlap in tags, and, most importantly, because the Digidestined are so rarely drawn consistently (see below), the human part of the dataset is heavily biased towards including the various adult humans seen during flashbacks, the returns to Earth, and when Digimon disguise themselves as humans, plus humanoid Digimon. To see all my LoRAs and all the example images, please disable X and XXX visibility. You can help support making models like this by posting stuff you've made with it to the gallery using the "add post" button, that helps me earn back the training cost at no cost to you.

Optional: D_W_B_G (use for the white dot speckled background of the digital world)

When I started making this I very quickly learned how difficult it would be to get good training data out of this show: Almost every other shot of this show (especially early on) is severely off model and does not hold up to any scrutiny. Worse than faces being horrible most of the time, you’ve got stuff like scenes where a character’s upper body is just missing, layering issues, and more. I suspect this is why nobody bothered to make an Illustrious version. Once against I find that “the training data options are awful” is very often the answer to “why hasn’t someone made a LoRA of this popular thing yet?”

One thing that looks like jank at first but isn’t is how the digital world has these little white dots over all the background. While it looks really offputting and cheap, around the mid-point you realize they’re only present on things native to the digital world and when the digital world starts seriously intruding on the real one, and is actually totally absent from the real world and some objects “native to” the real world and illusions. I'm not sure D_W_B_G really adds that to an image, but I don't think it matters as long as it doesn't show up unprompted.

Made with 181 screenshots (from Spanish dub, because English cut and altered a lot of stuff while Spanish video is same as original except for some text like title cards, character introductions, and credits) and 25 official art. Site died during training which reset epoch counter, so no idea if this got enough training.
