An early 2027 guide: every tool below is available and verified today, and this page is updated as the set changes. These four take different routes to cartoon results - restyling real footage, generating anime clips, or animating 3D characters - so the right pick depends on your source material.
For restyling real footage into anime
Its Restyle Video feature converts live-action clips into anime, cartoon and illustrated looks while keeping the original motion. Text-to-video, image-to-video and character-to-video modes generate new scenes, and talking avatars, lip sync, face swap and upscaling finish the clip in one place. Popular with anime and short-form creators.
For video-to-video anime looks
Upload a clip and its video-to-video engine re-renders it in anime and other animated styles. A character animation feature animates a single image, and a consistent-character mode keeps the same person across shots. Text-to-video, talking avatars, face swap and lip sync round out the toolkit.
For 3D cartoon characters
Krikey turns text prompts and videos into 3D character animations, with AI character rigging, motion capture tools and a library of cartoon, anime and mascot characters. It fits explainers, classroom clips and social videos built around a recurring animated character.
For anime art, characters and comics
An all-in-one anime studio: generate anime art, animate an image or prompt into a short clip, design original characters and turn stories into comic pages. Best when the cartoon look starts from stills or story ideas rather than existing footage.
