Anime upscaler

Enlarge anime and drawings with clean lines and flat colours, by Real-ESRGAN's anime model on your device. Free, with no account or uploads.

Upscale anime and drawings

Drop a drawing or a frame of anime; its lines are kept clean as it is enlarged.

The new detail is made up by a model from what pictures usually look like; it is never recovered from the picture. Do not use an enlarged picture as evidence of what was there.

Questions people ask

Why a separate model for anime?
Real-ESRGAN's anime model is trained to keep lines clean and colours flat, where the photo model would add texture that is not there.
Is the new detail real?
No. The model draws detail from what pictures usually look like; it is made up, never recovered, so an enlarged picture is not evidence of what was there.
Is my picture uploaded?
No. Real-ESRGAN runs in your browser from this site's own files, on your graphics where they are offered and in WebAssembly otherwise; nothing is sent.
