Tried SDXL and it's slow af. It also needs more RAM; everytime I change models my PC will freeze for a few seconds as it sucks all my RAM (I only have 16 GB, idling at 7 - 8 GB). I tried generating non-anime stuff and it seems it generated better results with less prompts compared to SD 1.5. As for anime stuff, I only tried one model and I still needed as many tags as I used on SD 1.5. I'm not sure if it looks better than SD 1.5. I didn't try much as each generation took 4:20 minutes on average, 7x slower than SD 1.5. Btw I didn't edit the image above at all, it's pure txt2img.
