      Hang four 5- by 5-inch mirrors in a straight line above your bed in lieu of a headboard. The mirrors will catch and reflect all the colors and lights in the room to enhance the overall effect as well as portray the futuristic and stylized feel of an anime.

      Replace your bedding with something that is colorful and printed. Pin up a few Japanese anime wall hangings or scrolls, using them to inspire you as you decorate the rest of the room. Use colors and items that match the wall hangings.
