Art Style Type

This SREF style blends elements of Japanese anime with realism, closely resembling the visual style of high-quality animated films. It embodies "animated film aesthetics" similar to the visual language of Studio Ghibli or Makoto Shinkai works. This style belongs to these categories because it combines meticulous detail with romanticized real-world scenes, creating a visual experience that is both dreamlike and grounded in reality.

Style Characteristics

The main style characteristics of this SREF include vibrant saturated colors, refined light and shadow treatment, soft contour lines, and highly emotive atmosphere building. The images present a kind of "hyperreal realism" where lighting is particularly rich and varied, with both natural and artificial light sources given emotional expression. This style is impressive because it transforms ordinary scenes into poetic and emotional visual experiences, with each image seemingly telling a story.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • Animated Film Rendering: Pairing with this word enhances the cinematic lighting quality and detail expression, making scenes more immersive
  • Emotional Lighting: Using this word reinforces the emotional expressiveness of light in the work, adding atmosphere and emotional resonance
  • Dreamlike Colors: Adding this element improves the overall color expressiveness, giving the images a more idealized and emotionally rich visual effect

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for emotional narrative illustrations, tourism promotional materials, romantic story scenes, young adult literature covers, alternative style food photography, emotional advertising design, and any visual creation that needs to evoke nostalgia or warm emotions. It effectively conveys storytelling and emotion, especially suited for creative contexts that aim to establish emotional connections with viewers.

More Tips


You can explore further by combining the following command:

  • --sv: There are six versions of the Style Reference feature in Midjourney version 7 when using images. Use the --sv parameter to choose between them. --sv 6 is default. --sv 4 is the old V7 sref model (prior to June 16, 2025). Using --sv 6 and --sv 4 may produce different style results.
  • --s: Default value is 100, can be set from 0 to 1000. The higher the value, the more detailed the image, and the closer the style may be to reality.
  • -niji 6: Using this command will give the image a more anime style.
  • --sw: Default value is 100, can be input from 0 to 1000. A higher value makes the style closer to the original.
  • You can now blend multiple --sref codes together (for example --sref 123 456 )
  • You can weigh individual codes or urls as follows --sref 123::2
