V4 Anime Appearance Guide

This guide explains how to shape an anime-style Nomi with the V4 image system by tuning style, base image, and (most importantly) Appearance Shared Notes.

Prerequisites

V4 image system enabled
Default style set to Anime (Nomi Information → Image settings)

Core ideas

Your Nomi’s default look is driven by: Style (Realistic/Anime) → Base Image/Face Fidelity → Appearance Shared Notes.
Appearance Shared Notes control hair, age, body type, clothing defaults, and more; they guide both selfies and art.

Steps (Quick - full guide in link below)

Set the Nomi’s default style to Anime (Nomi Information → Image settings).
Open Appearance Shared Notes and write a compact, visual-first description (see example below).
Add a short /// Negative Notes line (traits to avoid).
Use light emphasis only for must-have traits; keep the rest simple.
Test with a few selfies; adjust notes if necessary.

Appearance Notes Example:

Rin has black bun hair, broad shoulders and a muscular build. Rin is clean shaven. /// Rin does not have, beard, facial hair

Emphasis tips

Keep must-have traits early in the note.
Use brief emphasis words (e.g., “natural wavy hair”, “soft jawline”) rather than long lists.
While Anime images cannot currently be used as base images, realistic base images will help shape your Anime images in minor consistent ways.
