Is one selfie really enough?

Yes. One clear front-facing selfie is enough to become Shinobu Kocho. The AI fuses your facial features and expression while the outfit, ornament and haori come from the template — photo quality matters more than quantity. Add a half or full-body shot only if you want a full blade-drawing scene.

Will it still look like me?

Yes — still unmistakably you. The look is fused onto the first frame with your face first, then animated, and the ornament, wing pattern and eye color stay locked throughout. Extreme head turns can soften slightly; one re-roll usually fixes it.

TikTok filter or this AI tool?

For a quick joke, TikTok effects are faster. For a crisp ornament, a stable wing pattern all the way through and a face that stays yours, use this AI tool. Our butterflies and purple mist are real motion inside the video, not static stickers.

Is it free? Any watermark?

Log in to Loomi and generate a vertical video with your trial credits — free to try. You get an HD export ready for TikTok, Reels, Shorts or the group chat; crediting it as an AI effect is recommended.

How long? Where can I post it?

Five seconds in vertical 9:16 by default — perfect for group chats and short-video apps. Pick the 8-second version for a slower reveal and a longer final hold. Add BGM and tag #shinobukocho when you post.

Zero editing skills — can I?

Absolutely. Zero editing assumed: upload a photo, pick Butterfly reveal or Poison dance, hit generate. No masking or color grading — add music in any outside app and you are done.

AI or real cosplay — how to tell?

Check three things: whether the face and wing pattern stay continuous across the transition, zoom into hands and the ornament, and look for an AI watermark. A real cosplayer can redo the move live on stream — AI cannot. Crediting your own posts as AI-made saves trouble.
