2×2 card or 3×3 grid?
Four squares leave room for a reason under every pick, which is what makes this format a conversation starter. If you would rather show nine favorites at a glance, use My 9 Characters, or the series grids for anime, games and TV shows.
Frequently asked questions
What is the “4 characters I like” trend?
It is a 2×2 picture of four fictional characters you like, posted on TikTok, X, Instagram and Tumblr. People often add why they like each one or what the four have in common, and friends reply with their own four.
How do I make a 4 characters I like template?
Tap a square, then search an anime or manga character, upload a picture, or just type the name and pick an icon. Add where they are from and one line about why you like them. Repeat for all four, then press Download PNG or Copy share link.
Can I add characters from games, movies, cartoons or books?
Yes. The search covers anime and manga characters (from AniList). For anyone else, type the name and either upload your own picture or use a generated card with an icon — it works for game, Disney, Marvel, book and TV characters alike.
How does the share link work?
The names, sources, lines and icons are packed into the link after the # sign, which is never sent to a server. Characters picked from search reload their picture from AniList when your friend opens the link. Uploaded pictures stay on your device, so the link shows a generated card in their place.
What size is the PNG?
1080×1350 pixels — the portrait size Instagram and TikTok photo posts use — with the four characters, their one-liners and the title. There is no watermark, only a small site address at the bottom.
4 characters I like vs My 9 Characters — which should I use?
Use this 2×2 card when you want four picks with a reason for each. For a bigger 3×3 grid of nine favorites with character art, use the My 9 Characters template.
Is this free? Do I need an account?
Free and unlimited with no account. This is an independent fan tool: character names belong to their creators, and the example cards use generated icons rather than official art.
