◆ Midjourney v7 (niji) · Stable Diffusion 3.5 + Anime LoRA · Flux Pro 1.1

Anime Character Portrait.

Intent — Anime / 2D character reference sheet

Anime portraits and photoreal portraits are two different technical problems. The three tools take completely different approaches: Midjourney v7 has niji-style baked in / SD relies on community LoRAs to train anime style into the base / Flux defaults to photorealism and requires forceful prompting to stylise. Pick wrong and you spend the session fighting the model.

01

Midjourney v7 (niji)

◆ Recommended prompt
anime portrait of a young woman with long silver hair and blue eyes, wearing a school uniform, soft cherry blossom petals falling, magical hour lighting, detailed face, illustration style by Makoto Shinkai, key visual quality --ar 2:3 --niji 6 --s 250
Open in Midjourney (prefilled)
✓ Strengths
  • **--niji 6 模式內建**，一行 flag 就出動漫感
  • 預設動漫畫風美感最穩，色彩搭配自動和諧
  • v7 對細節（眼睛、頭髮 strands）穩定度比 v6 提升
✗ Weaknesses
  • 角色一致性弱（多張同人物會微差）
  • 細節控制度不如 SD + LoRA
  • 原創角色設計 → 容易跟現有作品「撞風格」
When to use

個人插畫 / 同人作品 / 動漫風 hero 圖 — 不需要嚴格角色一致性。

  • 本地跑（A1111 / ComfyUI）— 沒次數限制 / 沒審查

When to use

原創角色 / 客戶委託需要嚴格一致性 / 想完全控制風格細節的工作流。

03

Flux Pro 1.1

◆ Recommended prompt
Stylized anime illustration of a young woman with silver hair and blue eyes, wearing a Japanese school uniform, soft cherry blossom petals drifting, golden hour back-light, painted in the style of contemporary Japanese key visual art (Makoto Shinkai influence), high detail face, semi-realistic anime hybrid style.
Open in Flux (prefilled)
✓ Strengths
  • **realist-anime hybrid** 美感獨特（不像純 anime 也不像照片）
  • 光影 / 質感比 MJ 寫實
  • 中性的「電影感動漫風」適合廣告 / 商品聯名
✗ Weaknesses
  • **默認偏寫實** —— 一定要寫 "anime style" / "illustration" 等修飾語
  • 純 anime 純度比 niji 弱
  • 沒 LoRA 機制 — 角色一致性靠 prompt 硬撐
When to use

品牌聯名 / 動漫風廣告 / 想要「不太 anime 又有點 anime」的混合風格。

◆ Bottom line

Pure anime vibe → MJ niji. LoRA-customised character / consistency → SD. Realist-anime hybrid → Flux with explicit style hints.
