How to Draw an Anime School Girl Step 01

1. Begin by drawing the anime girl’s face. Draw three successively smaller circles to form the eyes. Shade between the two smallest to indicate the pupil. Use a thick curved line above and a curved line below to give them the classic squared shape of anime eyes. Then, use curved lines to draw the eyebrows, nose, and lips.

Many animes and mangas are aimed at youths. It comes as no surprise, then, that many of these stories take place in high school.

School uniforms are common in Japan, and these appear in anime as well. The classic style is characterized by a short pleated skirt, popularized by the 1990s pop star Namie Amuro.

In Japan, the term otaku is used to describe "people with consuming interests, particularly in anime and manga."
