May be those examples should have instant results? I guess most people are just clicking them to see what it looks likes instead of waiting 100s. Most of them look like photoshop filter as per other comments, but IU and Billie Eilish definitely looks good.
While they don't look true anime style, they look properly very cartoonish, like someone would have drawn them.
Good job to the op.
Lol @ the Bill Gates to middle aged woman with teardrop tattoo.
As with real artwork, the eye is drawn to embelishments, exagerations, and simplification and directed by composition.
In pieces by a competant artist, these add a new level of interest and dimension to the piece.
With these images, following what makes each image is always a dead end. There is no composition and the embelishments are mechanical, random and uninteresting.
For example, I find myself wondering why the the artist chose to paint the mouth so asymetrical. Is the artist trying to express an emotion? Who is the subject, and why have the been rendered as they have. It's confusing and a challenge to critique the artwork... until I realize its just bit of randomness generated by algorithm incapable of any creativity beyond how the programmer applied generic and randomizing programming methods.
There isn't and cannot be anything unique to any of the images. Once you've studied any one of them, you've really experienced most of what the programmer/artist has contributed.

Note that Japanese anime normally uses a much simplified style to increase the production speed. This naturally results in a highly distorted(?!) depictions that even humans often find disturbing. This makes anime-style difficult to mimic.
Like many other comments, I don't see much resemblance to anime styles, but dismissing the results as a Photoshop filter is nuts. The animation style this does look like is that of 2006's A Scanner Darkly, or 2019's Undone.
> The animation style this does look like is that of 2006's A Scanner Darkly, or 2019's Undone. Rotoscoping is the technique. Basically, you film real life and trace over the frames by hand yielding an animated version of your irl footage.
Interesting, you can see how it feminizes faces quite clearly in the examples of Bill Gates and Elon Musk. Gates looks kind of like Ellen DeGeneres to me in the anime version.

People keep stating these look like photoshop filters. This is a very shallow dismissal imo. Why don't you prove it instead by applying some Photoshop filters and achieving a similar effect? Include how long it took as well.
It takes the presenter about seven minutes to go from "image opened in Photoshop" to "comic-style effect applied to image", and that includes a verbal explanation of each step. (The rest of the video talks about things like making sure the image is an adequate size, and adding extra elements like borders and dialogue balloons.)
