Mod Overview
This basically changes the villagers’ look by giving them a different style but with the same pixelated graphics. Nonetheless, the developers managed to keep the characters aura, blowing off the same vibe despite the alterations.
Moreover, all bachelors, bachelorettes, and non-marriageable candidates have their sprites available already!

1. Download the Anime Mod on Nexus Mods.
2. Copy it and head to your game files.
3. Unzip the zip file in the mod folder.

Features
- Aesthetic-looking Anime Portraits. It has a more modernized look, with the characters still resembling their original design.
- More expressive characters. You’ll see more emotions on their faces whenever they’re in disgust or when they receive their favorite gifts.
Gameplay Experience
Overall, the mod’s not bad. It’s a good change if you’re tired of seeing the same facial expressions of NPCs, but we did notice some flaws in the design. Despite giving the characters some resemblance to their original style, there are missing details, such as Maru’s glasses. Some were too rough up like Clint.
We understand these alterations, but it can be a little shocking to see major differences.
Verdict
Anime Mod by OhoDavi is no doubt a masterpiece. Its uniqueness is amazing, but we don’t really recommend it to most players since it’s purely for aesthetic purposes. Anyhow, if you want to give these villagers a new look in Stardew Valley, then we won’t stop you! Click here to download it.
