Anime and manga characters can have a variety of hairstyles, so choose one that you think will look best on your character. Avoid drawing every single strand of hair and instead sketch the basic shape of the style onto your character. Work lightly in pencil so you can erase and make changes if you need to. Once you have a roughed-in shape for the hairstyle, erase any parts of the head that the hair covers so it’s not visible.
Anime or manga hair is usually broken up into clumps that end in a point. Look at hairstyles of various characters to get ideas of how to style your character’s hair.
For a female character, place the lines for the neck closer to the chin so it’s narrower. Make straight vertical lines extending from the jaw on each side of the face to make the neck. Younger manga or anime characters will have a narrow neck since they aren’t as muscular or defined.

If you want to draw your favorite character or design one on your own, start by designing their head and face so you can sketch what they look like.

To draw a female face in anime or manga, start by drawing a circle for the forehead and a straight line from the top of the circle to where the chin will be. Next, sketch the chin and cheeks, making sure that the lines change direction but that the curves are subtle. Draw lines as a guide for the size of eyes and ears, then sketch the details of the features. Finally, add lines for hair, use a smaller tipped tool to add more detail to the face, remove the sketch marks to create a neater outline, and add the base color of your work.

This circle will be the fundamental element for today's guide. It will serve as a proportion for the face and hair and everything.
After you draw the circle, draw two lines both pointing inwards at a tiny degree, and connect them like in the picture. Draw another line straight through to the chin.
Draw the mouth. It can be closed, opened, teeth gritted, frowning, whatever. You have to draw the mouth so that the line going straight through the head would be in the middle.
Again, you can do anything with the eyes. You have to draw the eyes above the bottom part of the circle. The nose would be where the bottom part of the circle meets with the vertical line.
I decided to put the anime girl's hair into a ponytail (you'll see later), but honestly it doesn't matter. You can do any type of hairstyle you want. I put her hair in a blue bow.

The legs of an anime character should be approximately as long as the top half of the character, from the top of the head to the waist. Finally, add in the arms. A good rule of thumb is to align the elbow with the character’s waist, and then extend the rest of the arm (including the hand) to about mid-thigh.
The basic anatomy of an anime face starts with a circle with a vertical line and horizontal line directly through the center.
Leave the inner corner of the eye open for a softer look. Then, add a circle in the middle of the eye as the iris. Draw a smaller circle—the pupil—in the middle of the iris. To create primary and secondary light reflections, add in one or two additional circles within the iris.
