Anima

I really hope the creator of this model in like 2 - 5 years considers making a "XL" version of Anima, while the model punches several weigh classes up, it does show it's limitations with backgrounds and environments especially, character are genuinely pretty darn good except for some small issues with a hands and feet which are mostly seed dependent, like any action with hands is a bit messy in general, it's not Flux Klein bad by any stretch of the imagination, but I think a ~6B model that was trained with some care would massively improve the relatively small issues around characters and larger issues with backgrounds and environments. Also the use of a 4B~ LLM to go along with the bigger DiT model, which while I understand the laser focus T2I as a necessary compromise when working with relatively limited resources compared to what a Black Forest Labs or Stability AI have and had, using a flexible enough LLM that can enable complex editing etc loras to be created is I believe something that is sorely missing from Anima because of the small LLM size. Again what Anima is doing with such a tiny DiT and LLM is amazing pleas don't get me wrong, and is a massive improvement in most areas over SDXL models, but I am somewhat disappointed that we didn't get something big enough to completely replace SDXL.
