It’s been trained and tuned specifically to create the best anime and manga style art it can.
Can Standard MidJourney Do Anime?
Since the standard MidJourney model is general-purpose, it can definitely produce anime-style images.

First the standard MidJourney model for “Male anime style warrior swordsman.”
Then, the Niji V6 model for the same prompt.
Whereas if you want anime-style illustrations consistently, then Niji will deliver them almost every time.

Luckily, it’s easy to switch back and forth.
You’ll see a configs window pop up, where you could choose Niji from a drop-down list.
Choose the latest version, or the latest non-Alpha version if you prefer.

Until you change it back, all of your subsequent images will now be run through Niji.
To get back to the standard model, just repeat the same steps.
What you ask for in your prompt is still quite important.
Prompt: “An 80s anime style mech walking through a jungle.”
Prompt:“90s anime male vampire warrior dark and gothic.”
you’re able to fire off the gamut of characters, styles, and scenarios.
