Watch How to Draw

Cracking Egg
A drawing with an action built in always makes for a more interesting composition.
Stick with the classic set, or choose from the entire franchise of those beloved Pokemon.
Keep thisrandom doodlesimple like these sweeties, or add patterns or pops of color.
Customize your boating frog by changing the boat shape, mast, or even the frogs color.
Fox Girl
Anime dabbles in the mystical and the fun of being anything imaginable.
Both items are cute, easy to draw, and look even better together.
This duo is a great launching pad next, maybe a dog and a cheeseburger?
Thesetree drawing ideaswould be great to incorporate!
Stick to the simplistic pop in of bunny shown above, or plan a more lively one.
In both films, they mainly play supporting but helpful roles, not to mention adorable.
Kitten Chomp
Another great option for a simple action image to excite the scene is this cat duo.
Any two characters will do in this simplistic action of one chomping another ones ear.
This pup is a great option for a Hello Kitty lover who prefers dogs over cats.
Totoro Sprout
Another lovely little character from My Neighbor Totoro is this sweet Totoro Sprout.
Eyes
We all know that the stylized eyes in any anime are non-negotiables.
Its a great subject to devote an entire page to just practicing different variations on anime eyes.
Add all the other friends from the film to your Totoro drawing, or keep them separate.
Keep Totoro solo, or add the other friends from the list to your drawing.
Four Chicks
Anime, a lot of the time, is never stationary.
This chick series is another great option to practice just that.
Feel free to vary up the idea from the movements herewhatever suits your idea best.
Toadstool
An animated toadstool is one of the most common images in an anime-oriented world.
Whether short, tall, small, or big, a mushroom is a great anime option.
If youd like to go hyper-specific, try Toad from the Mario franchise.
These easymushroom drawingsare also lots of fun!
Its a great lesson in some Asian foods, too, if youre unfamiliar with popular snacks or dishes.
Have a page dedicated to different emoting foods to practice all the possibilities.
Blushing Boy
People blushing in animes is one of the most recognizable tells that it fits the genre.
Another great example of an outright feeling displayed is a subject with hearts around them.
Faceless
Another character from Hayo Miazakis world, Faceless, comes from Spirited Away.
He is a good subject in contrast with any overly emotional characters.
Hes a curious creature and can liven up many different drawings.
Pair him with one of his movie counterparts, or mix him with a random image.
Keep them simplistic like this, or flush out an entire scene starring this too cool for school character.
Haku
Another hugely important character thats easy to draw from Spirited Away is Haku.
He does well as a subject for his overall simplistic silhouette and details.
Not only is she one of the cutest, shes also one of the easiest to draw.
Annoyed Girl
Emotive characters go hand-in-hand with the genre, whether happy, excited, or annoyed.
All emotions are welcome and to be completely present on a subjects facethe more prominent, the better.
Implement the girl into a situation or let her be content all on her own.
Feel free to swap the stars with whatever signifier suits your drawing well.
Calcifer
Calcifier is another incredibly adorable Ghibli character from Howls Moving Castle.
Although small in stature, the Calcifier is a main element of the story and drives the film forward.
Add any fun small addition to the cats head.
Whether its a leaf, shoe, or buried treasure, its a reliable anime image to draw.
Pusheen
Pusheen is another completely recognizable character in the anime world by now.
If youre looking to practice with a character for a series, Pusheen makes for a great one.
As mentioned, the cat is highly adaptable, fun, and easy to draw.
