Anime Avatar Maker

An anime-style avatar with expressive eyes and bold hair, plus matching expressions for the same character.

This part has no color options.

Forums, game profiles and chat communities are full of anime avatars, and most of them are crops of well known characters. This maker gives you an anime-style face of your own, which stays yours wherever you use it.

It opens on the Mouth tab for a reason. Once the character is built, the mouth and eyes are what you change to make an expression set.

Make an expression set

Anime avatars work well as a set of the same character in different moods. It takes a minute once the base is done.

Build the base and press Copy link so you can always return to it.
Happy: Happy closed eyes with an Open grin.
Annoyed: Sleepy eyes, Angry brows and a Flat mouth.
Shocked: Dot eyes with a Pout.
Smug: Wink with a Smirk or Cat mouth.

What reads as anime

Three things do most of the work: large eyes with a highlight, hair drawn as a few big shapes, and a small simple mouth. Sparkle and Round eyes carry the highlight. Wispy with ahoge adds the single strand of hair that anime uses for cheerful characters. Unnatural hair colors are normal in the style, so blue, pink and green all fit.

Using a set

Download each expression with the same background and you can swap avatars to match your mood without anyone losing track of who you are. With the Transparent background, the same images work as reaction stickers in chat apps that allow custom images.
