Art Style Type

This SREF style clearly blends cyberpunk aesthetics with 90s Japanese anime visuals. It inherits classic anime character design and composition while incorporating sci-fi and dark fantasy visual elements. The imagery carries a nostalgic quality reminiscent of iconic works like "Ghost in the Shell" and "AKIRA," but reinterpreted through modern AI rendering techniques.

Style Characteristics

The most prominent shared feature across these images is the dramatic contrast of light and shadow alongside bold color usage. Deep backgrounds create striking contrast with the characters, establishing a mysterious and tension-filled atmosphere. All images employ a low-saturation color palette accented with small amounts of highly saturated bright colors (especially red) that create visual focal points. The texture rendering is detailed, with careful attention to both clothing highlights and environmental lighting effects, creating a unique aesthetic that sits between realism and stylization.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • High-contrast lighting: Adding this element enhances the dramatic quality and atmosphere, giving characters more presence
  • Neon color accents: Pairing with this word can amplify the cyberpunk futuristic feel while maintaining the 90s anime retro aesthetics
  • Volumetric environmental lighting: Using this helps create more mysterious and surreal spatial qualities, improving the immersive quality

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for sci-fi or fantasy-themed game character design, anime-style movie posters, cyberpunk concept illustrations, and nostalgic music album covers. It effectively communicates mystery, power, and futurism, making it ideal for depicting characters with supernatural abilities or technological enhancements.

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
