Category: Anime and Cartoon Restoration
Purpose: Animation

This model corrects jagged lines on animation that has been deinterlaced. It handles simple line doubling, line interpolation, and even Yadif-style artifacts. It can also handle sources that were resized after deinterlacing, for example resizing from ntsc to pal resolutions. If a source has been upscaled after deinterlacing, it will need to be downsized before applying this model.

ArtClarity

Category: Anime and Cartoon Restoration
Purpose: Animation

This model helps repair color bleed and heavy chroma noise that may be present on some older footage, particularly that which was recorded on VHS. It also cleans up rainbows if they are present.

BleedOut Compact

Purpose: Animation

Improvement of low-quality cartoons from broadcast sources.
Will greatly increase the visual quality of bad broadcast tape sources of '80s and '90s cartoons (e.g. Garfield and Friends, Heathcliff, DuckTales, etc). Directly addresses chroma blur, dot crawl, and rainbowing. You're highly advised to take care of haloing beforehand in your favorite video editor as the model will not fix it and may make existing halos more noticeable.

BroadcastToStudio Lite

Create realistic noise and compression artifacts on images. This is meant to synthesize paired dataset for SISR training.

DeBLR

Category: Anime and Cartoon Restoration
Purpose: Animation

Wipes out dot crawl and rainbows in animation.

Dotzilla Compact

Category: Anime and Cartoons
Purpose: Anime or Text

This model is far from perfect, but it does a decent job on removing dot crawl and dehalo\deblock old anime at fast rate without removing many details. chaining it with models like 2x-anifilm-compact or 2xLD-ANIME or 2x_AnimeClassics_UltraLite_510K will give good results i think.

Epsilon-one compact

Pretrained model: 1x_DeJpeg_Fatality_01_175000_G.pth

Fatality DeBlur

These models deblur most images. It was trained mostly on aniso2 and iso blurring (BSRGAN augmentation) with some gaussian mixed in. It performs well on most blurry images, but I'd recommend using something like Fatality_Deblur for very strong gaussian blur.

Focus

Focus Moderate

Category: Anime and Cartoon Restoration
Purpose: Animation

This is a sharpening/deblurring model for anime video. It was created with three goals in mind:
Be blazing fast
Try to avoid enhancing noise and compression artifacts
Try to avoid over-enhancing intentionally blurred parts of the image

Despite that last point, this is not intended to be used on modern anime which makes heavy of use depth-of-field effects.

HurrDeblur SuperUltraCompact

Category: Skin
Purpose: Skin Upscaling

Adds plausible high frequency detail and removes subtle blur. This is an early unfinished attempt at a x1 Lite model designed specifically for enhancing detail on skin diffuse textures of 3d characters. Even in its current state it works quite well.

Best suited for uncompressed or cleaned textures - otherwise it may just enhance any existing compression artefacts too. The training set included faces, body parts, eyes and hair in a variety of skin types and tones so it should work well on most related diffuse textures.

However it's not just limited to skin, many other images and textures can be enhanced with this model. The results are subtle, so run multiple times if desired.

Pretrained model: 50/50 Interpolation of DIV2K-Lite and SpongeBC1-Lite

ITF SkinDiffDetail Lite v1

Category: Anime and Cartoons
Purpose: Animation

Upscale Anime while keeping as much of the original detail as possible. Isn't among the sharpest models and if the anime is somewhat blurry it will retain that detail but add more pixels to give a smoother edge. Doesn't change the color very much and may make some scene's very slightly darker.

PixelSharpen

Purpose: Deblur / ReFocus

Purpose: DeBlur, ReFocus, Sharpen Manga, Anime and cartoon style images, but will work on real life images too.

ReFocus Cleanly

Purpose: Deblur / ReFocus

Purpose: DeBlur, ReFocus, Sharpen Real life style images, but will work on Anime images too.

ReFocus V3

Category: Anime and Cartoons
Purpose: Animation

Restoring frames from the show "Sheeep"

This model was trained to restore "Sheeep" while retaining and enhancing the noise present in the show. The model amazingly finished training in only 8.8k iterations with no pretrain, with a dataset of only 4 image pairs. This model should work well for animes and cartoons with a lot of grain present. There are some slight haloing issues in dark colors unfortunately, but I was unable to fix it.

SheeepIt!

Category: Anime and Cartoons
Purpose: Animation

Fix vertical blur / split lines / shadowing. A 1x lite model of my 2xSwatKats. Resolves the same video problems as before, but 1x and faster and meant for chaining to other 2x models (or whatever). Input MUST be 540 vertical as the blur problem is very resolution sensitive.

SwatKats Lite

Sharpening, line darkening and slight line thinning, specifically made for the Boruto anime.

ThePi7on Solidd Deborutify UltraLite

Category: VHS Tapes
Purpose: VHS

Best when used on cartoons, it can work on anime. Due to the dataset it does struggle a bit with orange colors and grainy dark spots. This model is meant to be used to clean up the image before using it on a 2x or 4x model. Example with 2x-BIGOLDIES https://imgsli.com/OTQ0NjM/1/0.

ToonVHS

Purpose: Deblur / Unresize

Purpose: Fix images that have been arbitrarily / poorly resized, such as non-integer nearest-neighbor upscaling/downscaling - Also acts as an image sharpener/deblur when used on slightly soft inputs

Pretrained model: 1x_UnResize_MKII_030000_G.pth

UnResize V3

mdeblur

Category: Anime and Cartoons
Purpose: Animation

In addition to removing the vertical blur, the model upscales, sharpens and will remove MPEG-2 artifacting and a small amount of rainbowing and dot crawl. Another series afflicted with the vertical blur is Avatar the Last Airbender, which can be repaired by this model. The video fed into the model MUST be 540 vertical for the deblur to work properly.

SwatKats

Category: Anime and Cartoons
Purpose: Animation

After not being entirely happy with the main Spongebob v6 model, I trained a new one with blurring OTF options and two different downscale types. This one is much better in my opinion.
