This week, you might have seen some social media users posting images and videos of themselves transformed into their anime versions.

This concept isn’t entirely new. Previously, people had utilized an online image style transfer tool to do it. However, Snapchat has now made it easier for internet users to turn themselves into anime-style renderings with a simple filter.

Here’s how to access it. From the Snapchat app on your iOS or Android device, search for “Anime Style” from the app’s library of filters.

If you are not able to find the filter after installing Snapchat, you can click on this link using your smartphone devices to download it.

Once you’ve downloaded the preset, you can find a place for yourself in the world of Studio Ghibli films as you warp into an anime character.

OMG lol This Snapchat filter is wild! Living in my anime dreams! I’ve been wanting some 90’s anime style emotes for our stream. Maybe I can just upload some of these🤷‍♀️🥰☺️ pic.twitter.com/STFWMjxQSa
