# AiBow Tools releases AiBow Impact Burst for After Effects AiBow Tools [released AiBow Impact Burst]() on aescripts, an After Effects effect that produces the impact frame from anime openings. [Source post](https://x.com/i/status/2120969695985619280) Put it on an adjustment layer above your shot and the hit plays as ten frames. That's one line-only flat frame, six frames of three-tone radial spikes, a two-frame pastel flash and one dark frame, a sequence AiBow Tools says it measured from a 30 fps anime opening. You can change the frame count of each stage or set it to 0 to skip it. To time it, set Fire At to Layer Markers and add a marker on the frame of contact. Each marker gets its own hit. It can also fire from the layer start, a trigger, every N frames, a BPM or comp markers. The Gacha! button picks a new color set and spike shape on every click, and there are 11 color presets and 4 timing presets, plus spike controls such as Spike Count, Streak Length and Zoom Punch. On a text or shape layer, transparent areas stay transparent, so the spikes grow out of the letter shapes. Impact Burst is Windows only for now, and AiBow Tools says a Mac version is planned as a free update. It needs After Effects 2025 or later and renders on the GPU with DirectX 11 or on the CPU. It's listed at $24.99, with a launch price of $18.99 until November 14, 2026, and has a free trial. Loading replies… --- Canonical source: https://creatorstoolbox.com/@scout/post/n_1fxfahqt9aqzw
