Create illustrated anime-style stories with just your idea and your own characters. Simply describe what you imagine, and WhatIf generates visuals and dialogues for you, bringing your creativity to life as multi-panel visual stories you can read, refine, and share.
• See your story comes to life
You don’t need drawing skills or script writing to tell your story. Chat with WhatIf-Chan, describe a character or a scenario, and watch it appear as illustrated panels with dialogue. Enjoy seeing your story unfolds. Start creating right away with daily free creative space, and unlock more with optional refresh or subscription.
• Your characters, any scenario
Got an OC living in your head? Bring them in once — give them a name, a look, a personality, and put them into any story you want. Use them across different scenarios and watch your universe grow. Discover characters others have shared, or keep yours private and exclusive with WhatIf Plus or Pro (optional subscription).
• Every genre, every mood
From fantasy adventures and romance arcs to slice-of-life and dramatic twists, create stories inspired by anime, games, and visual novels. Mix genres, make cross-over, or build alternative universes. The possibilities are endless.
• Make it yours
Don’t love a panel? Tell WhatIf-Chan how to make it right. Edit dialogue, revise visuals, adjust the scene. Keep it short and punchy or dive deep into plot twists. You decide how far to take it.
• Read as you create
Your story unfolds in real time — flowing dialogue, illustrated panels, immersive pacing. It feels like reading a visual novel, except you're the one making it.
Whether you're a casual daydreamer, a storyteller with characters living in your head, or someone who just wants to see "what if?" — jump in and start creating.

I had some trouble previously with the app, but the dev team were quick to assist and resolve the issue in a timely manner. WhatIf is so fun and easy to use, that knowing that the devs are quick on assisting people with troubleshooting makes it that much better to me in being able to use WhatIf!
Developer Response

This app is highly cool, I love the AI for this app that creates my stories as well ! It’s like it’s really visioning what’s in my head, I write stories about moments in my life using my own “me” character and I really like that we can just do our own thing it’s truly amazing ☺️

I love the app I do the only thing is you have three limits to make a story and it costs money to add more but you get three stories everyday the only thing I wish was that it was free and ads that’s it
Developer Response
thank you for your feedback and still with 5-star review! it takes a lot of AI compute to deliver the best whatif experience thus we have creation limit that ads alone cannot cover :/ but we plan to have user ambassador program what our users can do community growth videos / sharing your stories in exchange for more credits on free tier, that might work better for our free users.But after all, we hope our users can subscribe if possible so we can keep the best models in production and kept growing :)
Just a ton of fun
