- Whats new? -
Better face proportions that dont look awkward with different rigged mesh hairs.

New eye textures.
New eyelashes.
You can now adjust both eye directions independently to do a derpy or a cross eyed look, you can do it by selecting/deselecting the left or the right eye in the eye page of the HUD and than use the eye movement arrows on the main page.
A sharp teeth option.
Reworked and less confusing hairbase options.
Mouth specular maps.

• Full facial control - Eyebrows, eyelids, Eyes and mouth can be controlled separately, mixing and matching different positions to create your own expression.
• Smooth animations and built in AO - eyes blink, look around, the mouth moves when you type or talk on voice chat, emotes as well as 3 different face AO styles.
• And more!
- Appearance editor -
Since this isnt a traditional human head, it needs joint offsets to work and due to technical limitations with the bento system, not all of the facial features can be adjusted.
Play around with all the appearance editor sliders to see which ones work best.
- Backwards compatibility -
The head is backwards compatible with eye, eyelash and blush textures made for the M3 and M4 series heads, however, for old mods use the M3 retro loader, N4 Anime and Chibi skin textures are supported but the M3 skins textures are not.
Thats all, have fun making avatars :D

10/10
Well a lot of people seemed to complain about it but to be honest it seemed like you took all the features from your old heads and improved them to make a new one, like you honestly did a great job <3
Really wanted to like this, but will stick with the original M4
I was an M3 user and then upgraded to the M4 Anime head and I loved both. I do like the HUD upgrades in this head, the new eye shape styles, and especially the vastly better mixing and matching with the expressions and independent eye movement.
However, I'm not a fan of the new shape of this head. It's a lot more round, and when I adjusted the sliders to thin the jaw/chin to not look so puffy, the mouth movements from the talking AO would glitch, so you were stuck with a chibi-like appearance. I also really do not like the new "round" nose option. I love this nose in the original M4 anime head, but the new look of it makes it extremely pointed from both the front and sideview, whereas the original was more... well, round! Unfortunately there was no way to adjust it to have a flatter, less pointy look.
Overall, I just found myself wishing that the old M4 would be updated with the new features instead, as sadly I was not able to adjust this to a look I was happy with. I really wish that there was a demo so that I could have tested it out before buying.
Pretty good if...
...you like things that are extremely user-friendly, but far less versatile; noses/chins that are stuck in the same shape (or two); that fish-eyed, TDA look; your tongue sticking out/face deforming whenever you play an animation that wasn't made specifically for UTI heads.
3 stars because it's actually pretty good for people who don't like to customize the hell out of every last detail. UTI's heads are kind of like the Apple OS of bento anime heads: Easy to use, but limited and doesn't respond well to things it wasn't made for.
Wish there was a demo for this, I could've used that 600L for something else.
Amazing Head
I love it due ot me using the old m3 Anime head i kept using it due ot the fact that i could resize it
There is one issue i have with this tho is that the Head is actually Pretty Small even on a Maitreya Body (uses Maitreya) its Great for Kemono and Standard Avi, but its just too small for the other ones even with the Slider at 100% (Hope it can have More sizes one day)
figured out why i like it
i'm re-writing my review because i figured out why I like it.
I was never a fan of anime heads in the past, and this is the first one I've liked so far.
the proportions are much more appealing to me, especially in the eye area, as someone who is generally not the target audience of animu, and dang man you can actually give the head a nose.

i'm a fan of noses.
Love it
I'm definitely a fan of this one. I've upgraded from my M4 Anime. I wasn't able to replicate the look completely, but that's totally fine. This one is a bit more mature and cutesy looking which I am so okay with. Thanks for another fun product Utilizator!
