AniTrio MBW IL - Animagine Block Split (Illustrious) is the Per-block weight split variant of the series: structure Nova, output SDXL, built on Nova Anime XL IL v19.0.
[Recipe] Block-weighted merge on UNet only: Nova Anime XL IL v19.0 toward Animagine XL 4.0 at 0.15 overall, with per-block weights base 0.15 / in 0.25 / mid 0.35 / out 0.50. VAE and text encoders inherited from Nova Anime XL IL v19.0.
[Why this direction] AniTrio brings three lineages into one batch on the Nova Anime base: NoobAI contributes thick-paint illustration, Animagine contributes SDXL 1.0 flatness, and Nova Reality is the shared subtraction reference so the deltas stay comparable.
[Series] AniTrio IL runs Diff (NoobAI 0.30), Dual (NoobAI 0.25 + Animagine 0.20), MBW (Nova structure, Animagine output blocks) and a 40/30/30 weighted blend of Nova, NoobAI and Animagine.
[Recommended settings] Euler a, 24-28 steps, CFG 5.0-5.5, 832x1216. Hires fix above 1.25x helps skin and fabric; Danbooru-style tags work well.
[Known limitations] Three-way mixes trade some prompt obedience for style range: expect slower convergence to a specific character and more variance in hands.
