Can I use metahuman with anime characters?

Good evening. Does anyone tried to use metahuman with anime characters? I want to use it and I’m getting very… no, VERY scary result. I’ve seen peoples can use it with stylized characters like here: How to: Stylized Mesh to UE5 Metahuman Character and export to Maya for Animation - YouTube
But I’m getting something weird like that:


I suppose, I have problems here but can’t figure it out. Am I doing something wrong when trying to set green tracks? Or I just can’t use metahuman with that anime character?

Here’s a link to someone else’s attempt on twitter. As you can see, they also ran into some hurdles with getting an anime character to work but resolved it somewhat by not laying markers for the nose (which is how they got an actual nose on the model) and adjusting the mesh influence around the eyes, wish epic would make scaling the eyeballs themselves easier than just having to change region influence.

Thank you! I suppose it’s the best answer I can get at this moment. Will wait for the new iteration of metahuman.
