Been thinking of taking a break from Anime generation

I have been working on anime generation for a long time, and I don’t know if it’s just me or if the technology isn’t there yet. It feels like anime models are still lagging behind seriously compared to realistic models, which have progressed leaps and bounds.

As seen on Civitai, anime generation is still very generic and occasionally buggy 99% of the time, and the details and clothing and background etc are rather mediocre unless it’s a close-up. Also, the current model + LoRA workflow for replicating characters is really a toss-up, most LoRAs are poor and bear little resemblance to the original character, you are often out of luck if you want to generate a niche character with high fidelity.

It’s frustrating. It feels like I’m hitting a bottleneck that I can’t solve personally when trying to produce high quality results. I’m wondering if the tech simply isn’t ready yet for anime. Should I take a break and wait a few years until there’s a breakthrough beyond Illustrious? Anime still feels too early for professional results…

Can LTX 2.3 do romance with kissing and clothed makeout?

Like say 2 girls making out nothing hardcore just one girl squeezing the tits of the other girl and kissing her etc feeling her up etc I tried this but doesn't seem to work they barely squeeze anything just lightly passes their hand over each other.

What would be a good prompt for something like this?
