Make your own anime AI video

The model follows the words you give it, so name the style plainly and name it early. Put a short style line at the start of the prompt: “2D anime style, clean line art, cel shading, flat colours, soft lighting”. Then keep the rest of the prompt in the same vocabulary. Words such as “photorealistic”, “skin pores” or “35mm film” pull the result back toward a live-action look, so leave them out.

Describe faces and bodies the way an illustrator would: large expressive eyes, simple shading, bright hair colours, a clear silhouette. Name a palette (“cherry-blossom pink and lavender”, “deep night blues”) and a lighting mood (“golden-hour glow”, “moonlight through a window”). The fastest way to check a style line is to open the ready-made anime scenes on this page and see how their tested prompts are written. Then change only the details.

Settings with one strong visual idea read best in a short clip. A maid café or a mansion parlour, with a frilled apron and a curtsey, gives the model a clear outfit and a clear mood. A neko character with ears, a tail and playful body language looks like anime at first glance. A romance at night under cherry blossoms, with falling petals and moonlight, puts colour and atmosphere into every frame.

Solo scenes, with one character in a softly lit bedroom, are the easiest to get right, because the model has only one design to hold. Cosplay works well too: describe an adult character dressed as a familiar archetype, such as a nurse or a neko character, and name the costume pieces. On Nureta these ideas already exist as ready-made anime scenes, and the gallery on this page shows them. Start from one and change the details to make it yours.

Yes. Paste the story into the box on this page and add one line that sets the 2D anime style. You do not need to rewrite it as a prompt first; plain prose with a clear order of events works. A story longer than one clip is stitched from several scenes into one video of up to about 3 minutes.

Keep the cast small and give each character fixed details: hair colour and length, eye colour, build and outfit. Use the same words for a character every time they appear. Write the story in beats: the meeting, the build-up, the main moment. Every character in the story must be an adult. The content policy bans minors, including fictional ones, and that covers characters who are drawn or described as young.

A good anime prompt has four parts, in this order: style, characters, setting, action. Style: “2D anime, clean line art, cel shading”. Characters: “a tall woman in her late twenties with long silver hair, violet eyes and a black dress”. Setting: “a rooftop garden at night, paper lanterns, city lights below”. Action: what happens first, next and last, in short plain sentences.

For a 5-second video, write one action and one camera idea, such as a slow push-in or a first-person view; more than that rarely fits. For longer videos, write one line per beat. If the first result misses, change one thing at a time (the style line, a character detail or the order of events) and generate again. Small edits teach you more than a full rewrite.
