I recently built MHA OC Maker, an AI tool that allows anime fans to generate their own My Hero Academia-style original characters (OCs).

Why I Built This
In many anime communities, creating OCs (Original Characters) is a big part of fan creativity. Tools like avatar builders exist, but they usually rely on selecting fixed parts (hair, eyes, clothing).
I wanted to experiment with a different approach: using AI to generate anime-style characters directly from text descriptions.
This means you can describe almost any idea and generate a character instantly.
Examples:
A shy support hero with lightning abilities
A UA student with plant-based powers
A mysterious villain with shadow manipulation
What the Tool Can Do
Generate anime-style characters inspired by My Hero Academia
Text-to-image character generation
Multiple variations per prompt
Simple web interface for quick iterations
How It Works
The tool uses AI image generation models combined with prompt templates optimized for anime characters. The goal is to make OC creation simple even for people who cannot draw.
Instead of building characters piece by piece, you can just write your idea and see what AI creates.
Future Plans
Some features I'm exploring next:
Structured OC builder (hero type, quirk, personality)
Character backstory generator
Pose and costume variations
Export options for storytelling or roleplaying
If you're into anime, OC creation, or AI tools, I'd love to hear your feedback.
