Characters & chat

Meet our anime-style companions

Explore Anime for illustrated character designs, or start with the anime choices in our builder. Once you have a companion, explain your role and the situation you want the conversation to open with.

Choose a personality as well as a drawing style

An anime appearance tells you how the character is presented, not how every reply will sound. Use the profile introduction to decide whether you want a reserved exchange, a practical discussion or something more theatrical, then make that intention clear in your opening.

Give the scene a familiar everyday location or an invented world. Either way, use adult characters and portrayals throughout. Illustrated and fantasy settings still have to follow our content rules.

Start with something the characters can solve

Give the opening a manageable task rather than a whole season's plot. Perhaps a community exhibition needs its final display arranged, or a visitor has arrived with the wrong directions. Establish your roles, the shared knowledge and the next choice.

Try this: We are setting up a local art exhibition. You are arranging the photographs and I am labeling the displays. We have found a print without a name. Ask how I want to identify it, and let me choose my own actions.

Describe the frame when asking for a picture

Tell the image tool what belongs in view: the subject, clothing, posture, surroundings and light. Use a compact description of the frame instead of expecting a retelling of the chat to specify the picture.

For another attempt, isolate the detail you want changed and keep the rest of the request steady. Competing art directions, viewpoints and actions in one frame make it difficult to express a single visual aim.

Check features independently of appearance

Do not use an illustrated portrait to infer a language-model name, context capacity or voice allowance. Open the chosen profile, see which actions it offers and inspect the cost of any media request before confirming.

Use our catalogue and account from a desktop or mobile browser. A home-screen shortcut can make returning more convenient, but it does not give the companion an offline conversation mode.

Questions and answers

Where do I choose an anime look for a custom companion?

Select Anime in character creation, then follow the remaining steps your account makes available. Check the finished setup before accepting the creation.

Does an illustrated profile have different chat or media access?

Anime is a visual category. It does not by itself change the conversation rules or tell you which call, video and other media features the character supports.

How can I begin a fantasy scene with an anime companion?

Introduce the world in plain language and tell the companion which roles you each play. Build on the replies gradually, with all participants portrayed as adults.
