Ever wished you could see yourself in a Studio Ghibli movie?
Well, now you can—thanks to ChatGPT’s new image generation feature.
In 2025, AI has leveled up. OpenAI recently upgraded ChatGPT with the ability to create AI-generated images in seconds—including those dreamy, hand-drawn Ghibli-style visuals that fans love.
Whether you’re a creator, brand, or anime fan, this new feature opens up a world of imagination.
What Are Studio Ghibli-Style Images?
If you’ve watched Spirited Away, Howl’s Moving Castle, or My Neighbor Totoro, you know exactly what we’re talking about.
Studio Ghibli’s art is famous for:
Whimsical landscapes
Soft color palettes
Dreamlike storytelling
Characters full of emotion and wonder
Now, ChatGPT can recreate that vibe using AI.
How Does ChatGPT Create Ghibli-Style Images?
OpenAI has integrated its DALL·E 3 image model directly into ChatGPT. You simply give it a prompt—like:
“A young girl riding a giant fox through a magical forest in Studio Ghibli style.”
And boom 💥 — ChatGPT generates a high-resolution image that looks straight out of a Ghibli movie.

- “A cozy teahouse hidden deep in the woods – painted like a Ghibli scene”
The results? Stunning. Soft brush strokes, dreamlike atmosphere, and anime magic.
