How tags work in a prompt
Danbooru is an image board where every drawing carries a list of short tags, written in lowercase with underscores. Many anime image models learned from pictures labelled this way, so a prompt written as a list of tags, separated by commas, often works better than a sentence. Some tools want the underscores, others want spaces. Try both on your model. Vivian’s field notesFirst-hand experience, not a study.
Put the tags that matter most first: who is in the picture, then the look, then the pose, then the framing and the background. Keep a second list of what you don’t want, the negative prompt, for things like a watermark or a signature. Vivian’s field notesFirst-hand experience, not a study. The method, with examples, is in Images online, and running a model yourself is in Images at home.
The copy of the wiki used here was checked against the file’s published fingerprint before use. Vivian’s field notesFirst-hand experience, not a study. Danbooru itself blocks automated reading, so no tag was read on the live site for this page. UnverifiedPlausible, not proven yet.

Remember it
- Tags are short lowercase labels. Most important first.
- Keep a negative prompt for what you don’t want.
- A tag naming a kink is play. Money around the picture is real.
- Check a tag’s page before you rely on it.
