@ci....ci2 on TikTokWhat Is the Anime Eye Trend?
The anime eye trend is a photo edit that took over TikTok in October 2026: a selfie where one eye is covered by a star-shaped cutout of an anime character’s eye, with three or four stickers of that same character placed around the photo. It is also called the anime star eye trend or the anime star face trend, and it is posted under #animeeyetrend.
The finished post is not a moving video. It is one picture held on screen for about ten seconds over an original sound by the.one.lsr, or a few pictures shown one after another, each with a different character.
The part people care about is the character. Most posts pick the anime character they look like, or one the comments chose for them: Sawako from Kimi ni Todoke, Megumi from Jujutsu Kaisen, Hinata from Naruto and the Chainsaw Man girls show up again and again.
Most of the top posts are tutorials, because doing it by hand takes a while: find the character’s eye, cut it into a star with Instagram’s Cutouts sticker, line it up over your own eye, add the stickers, then put it into a video with the sound. This AI anime eye maker does the picture for you, and the video in your browser.
How to Do the Anime Eye Trend with AI
- 1
Upload a selfie
A clear photo with both eyes visible. Front-camera selfies and mirror selfies both work; the AI keeps your photo exactly as it is.
- 2
Pick the character, or let the AI pick
Type any anime character, tap a suggestion, or leave the box empty and the AI finds the character you look most like. The star eye and every sticker come from that one character.

Make the video and post
Make the video with sound: your picture is held for ten seconds over the trend’s original sound. Make two or more pictures first and it becomes a slideshow. Download it and post it with #animeeyetrend.
Tips for a Better Anime Eye Picture
Show both eyes
The star goes over one eye and the other stays real, which is the whole effect. A photo with hair or glasses over the eyes gives the AI less to line up with.
Match the hair
The anime eye trend looks best when the character shares your hair colour or cut: black bangs for Sawako, pink hair for a pink-haired heroine.
Leave room around the face
The stickers go near the edges. A photo with some space around your head keeps them off your face.
Make a set
Three or four pictures with different characters make a slideshow video, the format the anime eye trend tutorials open with.
Ask the comments
“Which anime character do I look like?” gets replies. Make the one people name and post it as the answer.
Pricing
One anime eye picture costs 27 credits, and turning your pictures into the video with sound is free.
The smallest pack is $9.90 for 700 credits, enough for 25 anime eye pictures. A picture that fails is refunded automatically.
Autopilot plans
Every month we turn the newest trends into meme videos and post them to your accounts. Each post is one of the plan’s videos, and any you make yourself come out of the same count. Cancel any time.
One-time video packs
Pay once and use them on any trend template, at any length. The credits never expire, and the other video tools can spend them too.
Use it responsibly
- Only upload photos of yourself, of people who said yes, or of your own pets.
- Do not use it to make someone look like they did something they did not.
- Label the result as AI when you post it; TikTok and Instagram both have an AI-generated tag.
- The characters belong to their creators. Post your edit as fan content, not as official art.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the anime eye trend on TikTok?
It is a selfie edit: one of your eyes is covered by a star-shaped cutout of an anime character’s eye, and stickers of that character sit around the photo. The picture is posted as a short video over an original sound by the.one.lsr, under #animeeyetrend.
How do I do the anime eye trend?
Upload a selfie above, type a character or leave it empty, and make the picture. Then press "Make video with sound" to get the TikTok clip. By hand, people use Instagram’s Cutouts sticker to cut a character’s eye into a star and place it over their own, then add the stickers and the sound in CapCut.
Is there an anime eye filter?
Not as a live camera filter. The anime eye trend is a still edit, made with stickers and cutouts or a CapCut template. The AI here works the same way on your photo, so you get the edit without a filter or an app.
Which anime character do I look like?
Leave the character box empty and the AI picks the anime character you look most like, by hair, face and vibe, then builds the star eye and stickers from that character. Run it again for a different look-alike.
Is the anime star eye trend the same thing?
Yes. Anime star eye trend, anime star face trend and anime eye trend are three names for the same edit, after the star shape the anime eye is cut into.
What sound is the anime eye trend?
An original sound by the.one.lsr, used by almost every post. The video the page makes uses that sound, cut to ten seconds.
Can I put several pictures in one video?
Yes. Make two or more pictures, for example with different characters, and the video turns into a slideshow that shows each one for about a second, like the tutorial posts open with.
Can boys do the anime eye trend?
Yes. Megumi Fushiguro and Mika are common picks for guys. Mirror selfies and photos with a hood up work too, as long as one eye is visible.
How much does it cost?
One anime eye picture is 27 credits; the $9.90 pack holds 700 credits. Making the video with sound is free, and a failed picture is refunded.
What happens to the photos I upload?
Your selfie is stored in your account so you can reuse it, sent to the image model only for your picture, and never shown to anyone else. The video is made in your browser and never uploaded.
Does the picture or video have a watermark?
No. You download a clean picture and a clean video, ready to post on TikTok, Reels or Instagram stories.
Which Anime Character Are You?
One selfie, one star-cut anime eye, and the anime eye trend video with the original sound.

The two prompts behind the maker above, for any image model that edits a photo, such as GPT Image 2 or Nano Banana. Put your character in place of [CHARACTER], or use the first one to let the model choose your anime look-alike.
Anime look-alike (AI picks the character)
Make this photo into the viral TikTok "anime eye trend" sticker edit, themed on the existing anime character this person looks most like (hair, face shape, vibe); pick one well-known character and use only that one. Keep the real photo exactly as it is: the same person, face, hair, pose, clothes and background, still a real photo. Cover the person's right eye (the eye on the left side of the image) with one large flat cutout sticker cut in a five-point star shape, about twice the size of the eye, showing that character's own anime eye drawn in their anime style, lined up with the real eye so the person seems to have one anime eye. Then add 3 or 4 flat rectangular stickers of the same character (headshots or half-body manga panels in the anime's own art style) around the edges of the photo, slightly overlapping the edges and not covering the face. It should look like an Instagram story collage. No text, no watermark.
