Ghibli-style AI video generator for hand-painted anime stories

Give Fliki one frame in the soft, hand-painted anime look you want, and it becomes the style of the whole video. Describe the story and get narrated scenes with original characters who look the same in every shot.

Why storytellers pick Fliki for Ghibli-style video

A painterly look is easy for one frame. Holding it for a whole story is the hard part.

Most Ghibli AI tools restyle a photo or a single clip. Fliki locks your style and your cast for every scene of a narrated story.

Your style from one reference frame

Upload a single image in the hand-painted anime look you want. Fliki reads it, writes the style description, and uses the frame as the style guide on every render.

Original characters, held steady

Each character is drawn once as a reference sheet in your style, and every clip carries those sheets, so faces and clothes do not change between scenes.

A whole story, not a filter

A planning model writes the story in scenes and shots first. Then every shot is rendered in the same painted look, from the opening vista to the last frame.

Saved for next time

Keep up to five custom styles as tiles beside the presets and reuse your painted look on the next video without uploading again.

Direct how it moves

Add up to 600 characters of direction to a saved style: slow drifting camera, wind in the grass, quiet held moments. It rides every clip prompt.

Painterly presets to start from

No reference yet? Quill gives picture-book washes, 2D Illustrator gives lineless gouache with paper grain, and Anime gives clean ink lines.

Narration timed to each scene

The voiceover is recorded first and each scene is cut to its read, in any of Fliki's narration voices.

MiniMax H3 Max on the clips

Clips render on H3 Max at 720p by default, with up to nine reference images per clip. H3 Fast and the Seedance 2.0 tiers are alternatives.

Every aspect ratio

Render 16:9 for YouTube, 9:16 for Reels and Shorts, or 1:1 for the feed from the same project.

How it works

How to make a Ghibli-style AI video in 4 steps

From a story idea to a narrated, hand-painted anime video with a consistent cast.

Step 1

Describe the story

A few sentences about the place, the characters and what happens. Or paste a full script.

Step 2

Set the style with one frame

Upload a reference image in the painted anime look you want, one you made or have the right to use. It is saved as your own style tile.

Step 3

Review the plan and cast

Fliki breaks the story into scenes and draws each character once in your style. Adjust anything before the clips render.

Step 4

Render and share

Narration is recorded, clips render with the style frame and cast sheets attached, and the video exports in the aspect ratio you picked.
