Every representation I've ever seen of Anubis - including remarkably well preserved statues from antiquity - are either a male human body with a canine head, or fully canine.
This anime girl is not Anubis. It's a modern cartoon characters that simply borrows the name because it sounds cool, without caring anything about the history or meaning behind it.
Anime culture does this all the time, drawing on inspiration from all cultures but nearly always only paying the barest lip service to the original meaning.
I don't have an issue with that, personally. All cultures and religions should be fair game as inspiration for any kind of art. But I do have an issue with claiming that the newly inspired creation is equivalent in any way to the original source just because they share a name and some other very superficial characteristics.
