There's waifu2x, it does scaling but also denoising: https://github.com/nagadomi/waifu2x And other implementations thereof, e.g: https://github.com/nihui/waifu2x-ncnn-vulkan

In procedurally generated Anime there is Waifu 2x https://github.com/nagadomi/waifu2x . After procedural generation it is recommended to do denoiseing on the resulting image to improve quality.
