The results using the dev 20-steps before second stage were terrible. (probably because not using res_2s.)

However, the distilled 8-steps looks good that second stage isn't even necessary.

Even with just 3-steps, it's better than the dev 20-steps.

So, if you're going to use second stage, 3-steps seems sufficient.

Also, it reduces the overly saturated colors of the distilled version.

Anyway, This is completely different from the example above.

Dedicated sampler? Prompt enhancer? Does this make a difference? (or just I2V)
