Pick Your 9 Favorite Anime

Find anime by title or genre

The search box accepts English and Japanese titles alike — type "Cowboy Bebop" or カウボーイビバップ and you get the same anime, because the lookup runs against AniList's bilingual title data. While the box is empty, the starter list shows anime that are genuinely popular on AniList right now, labelled as source popularity rather than our own ranking. Every result keeps its native title as a subtitle, so you can tell which release and which language you are adding to your nine.

Search is honest about gaps: if nothing matches, you see a clean empty state instead of fuzzy noise, and adult content is filtered out of every query by default. The same anime database powers the resolve behind share links — nine anime IDs travel inside the URL, so a friend opening your link on any device sees exactly the covers and order you chose.

Choose anime that represent your taste

A 3×3 anime grid is a self-portrait in nine covers, and the strongest ones mix eras and moods on purpose. Pair the shonen classic that got you into anime with the quiet slice-of-life you only found last year. Give one slot to the series you have rewatched most and another to the one you argue about online. Classics like Cowboy Bebop or Neon Genesis Evangelion next to a current-season favorite make a poster that says more than any bio could — the contrast is the point.

Order matters too. The center square draws the eye first, so many people put the anime that defines them there, flanked by pairs that share a mood or a color palette. With names switched on, each cover carries its title, which turns the grid into a recommendation list your followers can screenshot. With names off, the poster becomes pure visual taste — six themes from warm paper to deep vinyl tune that impression further.

When your anime grid is finished, three export sizes cover every place a poster can live: the 1080×1080 square for posts and profile moments, the 1800×2100 poster for printing, framing or a desk setup photo, and the 1080×1920 story for vertical feeds. The share link is the quiet superpower — it carries the nine AniList IDs, your theme and your title inside the URL itself, so the poster reopens perfectly on any phone or browser with no account and no upload. Friends who open it can tap remix, keep eight of your anime and swap the one they would have chosen differently, which is half the fun of the format.

How to build your 3×3 anime collage

1. 1. Search and add. Type a title, tap add on the anime you want, repeat until nine slots are filled. Duplicates are blocked automatically, and any slot can be replaced later without starting over.
2. 2. Arrange the nine. Drag covers into position on desktop or use the arrow buttons on mobile — the center slot is prime real estate. Your draft autosaves in the browser, so you can close the tab mid-grid and continue tomorrow.
3. 3. Style and export. Pick a theme, add a title and signature, then download a 1080×1080 square for feeds, a 1800×2100 poster for printing, or a 1080×1920 story — or copy a link that rebuilds your exact anime grid on any device.
