Anime image upscaling

Upscale colored characters, manga line art, and anime scenes while retaining their drawing style.

Open the tool

The anime preset redraws illustration lines, color boundaries, and existing style at higher definition. It suits colored characters, black-and-white manga, and anime landscapes. Its focus is continuous drawing lines and stylistic consistency rather than photographic skin texture.

Upload and settings

  1. Upload one JPG, PNG, or WebP image, up to 10 MB in HD redraw mode. Alternatively, click “Use this sample” below a case to load its source image into the workspace.
  2. Keep HD redraw selected. The page supplies its task preset automatically; no separate prompt is required.
  3. Choose 2K or 4K output and medium or high quality. Keep the default Auto aspect ratio to retain the original composition.
  4. Check the estimated credits on the button, sign in, and generate. When processing finishes, inspect and download the result.

HD redraw uses GPT Image 2.5. Estimated credits depend on quality, output size, and the current model price; use the value shown on the generation button. Uploading or loading a sample does not start paid generation automatically.

Reading the comparison

Compare the whole composition first, then inspect matching details at a larger scale. Landing-page cases are AI-generated illustrations of the preset's intended effect. Your uploaded image is processed separately; these cases are not measured model benchmarks.

Choose a size

Start with 2K for typical screen use. Choose 4K for larger display dimensions and keep Auto aspect ratio. For a fixed pixel multiplier, use the 2× or 4× modes in image upscaling.

Common questions

Can I start with a page sample?

Yes. Colored character, manga, and landscape cases each have a “Use this sample” button that loads their own source image.

Will it turn anime into a photographic portrait?

This preset asks to retain the anime style, character design, expression, and palette. To change style, use image creation and describe the new visual direction.
