Anime & Manga Style Effect Video Generator
Restyles the person in a portrait as an anime, manga, ink-painting or pixel-art character in a short video with sound. About half of the 48 scenarios start in live action and switch to a drawn style.
Overview
About half of the 48 scenes in Anime & Manga Style Effect open in live action and switch style partway through, so the viewer watches a real-looking person become a cel-shaded or ink-drawn character. The presets come in roughly four kinds:
- Anime restyles: a rooftop parkour chase, a katana duel in the rain, a mecha cockpit launch, a 90s OVA café ambush
- Manga panel sequences, where the scene breaks into panels on a printed-looking page, most of them with huge brush-lettered sound effects such as ZUDON or KAKIIN. They cover a punch, a sword duel, a basketball dunk, a chess checkmate and an idol concert.
- Art styles outside anime, among them swirling post-impressionist brushwork, Chinese paper-cut silhouettes, ink-wash tai chi, 8-bit pixel art, cubist streets and claymation
- Short sequences, for example an extreme close-up of an eye opening onto a fractal iris, or a rapid montage that cuts between differently styled versions of the person
What you can build
It suits fan-art and avatar apps, cosplay previews, anime filters in social apps and intro clips for creators' channels.
Inputs
A portrait photo is required. One scenario, Cel-Shaded Arcade Duel With Guardian Spirit, also takes a second image as the reference for the opponent character; every other scenario works from the portrait alone. Rooftop Parkour Chase Anime Restyle is selected by default. Video Mode chooses between Standard at 720p and Pro at 1080p, framing is 9:16 (default), 16:9 or 1:1, and the clip runs 5, 10 or 15 seconds.
Outputs
Each clip is an MP4 with a generated soundtrack. The samples in the gallery are ten-second Pro renders in 9:16, at 1080 by 1920.
Limitations
Scenario wording cannot be edited. Heavy stylisation is the point of this app, so a fully drawn frame may look less like the person than the live-action opening does. A few scenarios keep the person photoreal throughout: in Calligraphy Ink Dragon Sunset Sky Restyle they watch an ink dragon form in the sky, and in Street-Magic Rabbit Magician Neon Card Trick they pick a card for a rabbit magician.
Safety & compliance
An anime version of a face still uses that person's likeness; get their consent first.
