AniStrong MBW IL - Heavy Output Block Split (Illustrious) is the Per-block weight split variant of the series: structure Nova, heavy output, built on Nova Anime XL IL v19.0.
[Recipe] Block-weighted merge on UNet only: Nova Anime XL IL v19.0 toward NoobAI-XL EPS Four-Mix (CyberFix) at 0.35 overall, with per-block weights base 0.35 / in 0.50 / mid 0.60 / out 0.75. VAE and text encoders inherited from Nova Anime XL IL v19.0.
[Why this direction] AniStrong is the high-weight end of the matrix: NoobAI against Nova Reality at 0.45, plus an Animagine direction, to find where strong style still holds structure.
[Series] AniStrong IL runs 0.45 difference, 0.35 + 0.25 dual, an MBW with the heaviest output weights in the matrix, and a 40/35/25 blend.
[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] This is deliberately near the stability limit: hands, small props and text can break first, and results vary more between seeds.
