i took some few hours to modify my comfyUI workflow from my illustrious gens, to be able to use the controlnets and posing models with anima instead. it's irritating that a simple text clip/encoding difference ruins so many things. but i eventually got it working with the help of asking other LLM's.

anyway hopefully as a result the poses and anatomy in these and future gens will look less 'AI' or 'fake'. though anima still seems to struggle slightly with lifelike proportions..
