Style Summary

This style set presentsa vibrant and dynamic collection of images characterized by bold colors, crisp lines, and a distinct anime/manga-inspired aesthetic. The styles evoke a sense of energy, narrative suggestion, and a playful yet polished visual language. The artwork demonstrates a clear influence of Japanese animation and illustration traditions, adapted for contemporary digital art.

Style Analysis

Color: The color palettes are vivid and saturated, featuring strong contrasts and a wide range of hues within each image. Bright greens, reds, blues, and yellows are prominent, often juxtaposed with darker tones to create visual pop. Color is used expressively to define forms, convey mood (from energetic to dramatic), and enhance the overall dynamism of the compositions.

Lighting: The lighting is often stylized and graphic, sometimes employing cel-shading techniques reminiscent of anime. While not always realistic, lighting is used to create depth and highlight key elements within each scene. Sharp shadows and defined highlights contribute to the crisp and graphic nature of the styles. The lighting emphasizes form and enhances the visual storytelling.

Design Technique: The styles emphasize clear linework, strong character designs, and dynamic compositions. The influence of anime and manga is evident in the expressive character poses, detailed rendering of key elements (like the scooter or flames), and the overall graphic storytelling approach. The images are visually engaging and suggest underlying narratives, inviting the viewer to imagine the stories behind each scene. The styles convey a sense of playful energy and visual sophistication.

More Tips

You can explore further by combining the following command:

--sv: There are six versions of the Style Reference feature in Midjourney version 7 when using images. Use the --sv parameter to choose between them. --sv 6 is default. --sv 4 is the old V7 sref model (prior to June 16, 2025). Using --sv 6 and --sv 4 may produce different style results.
--s: Default value is 100, can be set from 0 to 1000. The higher the value, the more detailed the image, and the closer the style may be to reality.
-niji 6: Using this command will give the image a more anime style.
--sw: Default value is 100, can be input from 0 to 1000. A higher value makes the style closer to the original.
