Don't worry though, we figured out how to get them. If y'all want to see which Disney or Pokemon or Harry Potter character you are, hither's what you demand to practice.

What are the Disney, Pokemon, and Harry Potter Instagram filters?

Instagram has long offered augmented reality filters, even user-created ones. Filters are effects that augment a user's face and or environment during a video recording. These include user-created Instagram filters, such as the "Which Disney character are yous?", "What Pokemon are yous?", and "Which Harry Potter character are you?".

Without whatsoever user input, these filters essentially serve up a Disney character or Pokemon or Harry Potter character. They're meaningless, of course, in determining who you really are, but they are pretty funny.
