A quick sidenote when I just realized that I forgot to mention since its a years since I modded my game folders and recently installed CK2 again while the old folders were still in my game files.

I used the "7-Zip" -program to turn WinRAR files into an regular folder to remove portraits from them, while storing the original DLC winRAR files.

My apology. ^^;

Last remark:
I do not own "Jade Dragon" DLC so I'll assume it will contain portraits too that needs to be remove also for India culture group. :)

Step 4: Once you manage remove DLC portraits from main game folders and their winRAR.files, launch the game to test the results.
If the problem remain in some parts, then do the same with Vanilla game's portraits:

- gfx/characters/ folders
- interface's portraits.gfx


Keep in mind that each culture group has their own portraits that needs to be removed before you can see the results.

From interface:
00_portraits_andalusians.gfx
01_portraits_mediterranean.gfx

From interface/portraits:
portraits.gfx
portraits_byzantine.gfx
portraits_byzantine_early.gfx
portraits_muslim.gfx

I wish you all good luck with micromanaging your game files. :)

For thoses who still wish play CK2 with Anime portraits, heres a tip how I got it work:

Step 1: Load 3.2.2 version of CK2. From my own experience mod worked with it before the newest updates.

Step 2: remove DLC's WinRAR files from Crusader Kings II/dlc folder:
dlc013
dlc018
dlc022
dlc057
dlc060
dlc063
dlc067
dlc070
dlc072
dlc074

NOTE: DO NOT DELETE NOTHING, to avoid to be forced start all over if you remove a wrong file.

Step 3: remove all Portraits related files from DLC's regular GFX & Interface folders.
( Clothes doesn't seem have affect on mod so thoses can stay. )

For example:
- dlc074/gfx/characters/westernslavic_male folder & default_son_westernslavic.tga
- dlc074/interface/portraits_westernslavic.gfx
Anything that say "portrait" needs to be removed from DLC folders. ( clothes & sprites can stay since thoses play no part when using Anime mod. )

when will this be updated, if ever?

I cannot take the game seriously because its so cute!!!
