Two Core Features

1. 🎨 Curated Daily · Inspiration Palette Gallery

This isn't just a collection of algorithm-generated palettes. It's a gallery curated by us—passionate fans of anime and gaming. Every day, I dive into a vast sea of anime, games, manga, and official concept art to manually select the most inspiring materials for you, crafting them into beautiful palette detail pages. Here, you will discover:

  • Character Palettes: From the armor of "Saber" to the teal hair of "Hatsune Miku."
  • Atmospheric Palettes: The skies from Makoto Shinkai's films, the neon-lit Night City from "Cyberpunk: Edgerunners."
  • Thematic Palettes: The iconic red and black of "Persona 5," the youthful tones of "Bocchi the Rock!"

Each palette includes precise HEX color codes that you can use directly in your creations, or simply enjoy as wallpapers and design assets.

2. 🛠️ Powerful & Easy-to-Use · Custom Palette Generator

If you have your own treasured images or want to analyze the color scheme of a specific piece of fan art, our tool can help you do just that.

  • Upload Any Image: Simply drag and drop screenshots from your phone or your downloaded wallpapers.
  • Pixel-Perfect Color Picking: Use the magnifier tool to precisely target a character's eyes or the folds in their clothing to get that exact shade you want.
  • One-Click Export & Share: Export the generated palette as a high-quality image or copy the color codes directly for use in Procreate, Photoshop, or any other design software.
