Random Anime Character Wheel

Random anime character, by franchise.

Built and maintained by Paul Clark, Redmoon Software · Last checked

Settle a "who would you cosplay" debate or pick tonight's drawing subject by spinning for one of 72 anime characters — twelve each from Naruto, One Piece, My Hero Academia, Attack on Titan, Demon Slayer, and Dragon Ball. Filter to a single franchise or draw from all six at once, and switch on no-repeats to work through an entire roster without duplicate spins.

Choose. Pick a franchise, or leave it on All to draw from every character in the pool.

Click Spin the wheel to see a result.

About the Random Anime Character Wheel

One franchise or all of them

Leaving Franchise blank pools every series together, so a draw can return anyone from any of the six rosters and the output tells you which series they are from. Choosing a franchise narrows to that roster only.

The rosters are the well-known characters from each series rather than a complete cast list — main characters, the significant supporting cast and the notable antagonists. That is a deliberate cut: a full cast list would bury the recognisable names under one-episode characters, which defeats the purpose for the games people actually use this for.

No repeats is tracked per franchise

With No repeats this session on, the tool remembers who it has already given you and draws only from those remaining. The record is kept separately for each franchise and again for the all-franchises pool, so switching franchise gives you a clean slate and switching back resumes where you left off.

When a pool runs dry the record clears and the cycle starts again rather than the tool refusing to draw. Everything is stored in this browser, so a group playing on different devices will not share the history — each person’s "no repeats" is their own.

What it is good for

  • Drawing a character to sketch, cosplay or write about when the choice itself is the blocker.
  • A guessing game — draw privately, describe without naming, let the room guess.
  • Assigning characters across a group for a watch-along or a tier-list argument.
  • Picking a fighter in a crossover game where you would otherwise always choose the same one.

Frequently asked questions

Which anime series are included?

Six franchises: Naruto, One Piece, My Hero Academia, Attack on Titan, Demon Slayer, and Dragon Ball, with 12 well-known characters from each — 72 in total.

Does no-repeats remember picks separately per franchise?

Yes. Each franchise keeps its own memory, so exhausting Naruto's 12 characters doesn't affect the all-franchises pool or any other series' rotation.

How can artists use this for drawing practice?

Spin with no-repeats on and sketch whoever appears — 72 characters is enough for a two-month daily challenge. The related OC generator makes original subjects instead.

Do popular characters come up more often?

No. Every character in your selected pool has exactly the same chance, because picks come from the browser's Web Crypto API rather than a popularity weighting.

Why isn't my favorite character in the pool?

The roster sticks to 12 recognizable characters per franchise so every spin lands on someone most fans know — main casts and major supporting characters, not complete cast lists.
