Furikake earns its place in the Toolfarm library as a CPU-optimized particle generator that pairs a graphical UI with support for After Effects' native lights, depth of field, and 32-bit color.
Furikake is a lightweight particle generation plugin for After Effects, built around a high-speed rendering engine that leverages modern CPUs. The multi-core optimized engine handles a massive number of particles smoothly and stably, and it supports Multi-Frame Rendering.
Particles emit from a range of shapes — points, boxes, spheres, grids and more — with control over emission direction and speed. Beyond basic spheres, Furikake supports 2D textures, both static and animated sequences, along with 3D textures, and lets you control size, opacity and color across each particle's lifetime. Physical behaviors such as gravity, wind, bounce and turbulence add motion, while a Child Particle System generates secondary particles.
Rendering draws on After Effects' native lights for lighting and shadows, with support for double-sided textures and normal maps, natural depth of field, and 32-bit color. A graphical UI and 3D camera support round out the toolset.
Furikake is best for motion graphics, VFX, and game effects work in After Effects that calls for large numbers of particles.
Furikake is completely free to download and use.
Furikake is compatible with After Effects 2026, 2025, 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021, 2020, CC 2019, and CC 2018. That range covers current releases as well as several older Creative Cloud versions, so it fits into both recent and long-running project setups. If you are on a version outside this list, check the developer's page for the latest compatibility details before installing.
Furikake supports Multi-Frame Rendering (MFR). Its rendering engine is optimized for modern multi-core processors and is built to handle massive numbers of particles smoothly and stably, fully leveraging the power of modern CPUs. Alongside MFR, it also supports depth of field and 32-bit color for high-quality visual output. For specifics on how these settings behave in your particular project environment, refer to the developer's documentation before you begin.
Furikake supports working with a 3D camera, and its lighting and shadows are driven by After Effects' native lights. It also handles double-sided textures and normal maps for advanced lighting effects, plus natural depth of field rendering. This lets particle work sit within an After Effects 3D scene using the application's own lighting setup rather than relying on a separate lighting system of its own.
Furikake is listed as free in this catalog. Pricing and licensing terms can change over time, so for the current status and any usage conditions, check the developer's page directly before you rely on it for a commercial project. The plugin is developed by One Chance, and a demo video is available on YouTube for a closer look at what it offers before you commit.
