Anique’s Goals

Breath life into characters with the power of the real and digital worlds,
to bring joy to people all over the world.

We can realize this limitless potential by creating both real life and digital ways to enjoy these works. Our goal is to add uniqueness and value to each work by delivering new ways to experience them to fans from all over the world.

Since its establishment in 2019, Anique has been selling goods, developing digital collectibles using blockchain technology, and holding online exhibitions using WebGL. Currently, we are working on various projects such as globalizing goods sales, developing goods using AR/VR technology, and virtual exhibitions.

We have worked with more than 20 major content holders in Japan, including Kodansha, Shueisha, Shogakukan, KADOKAWA, Namco Bandai Entertainment, Toei Animation, MAPPA, and NBCUniversal Entertainment Japan.

Where “Anique” Comes From

The name “Anique” comes from a combination of the words “unique,” “antique,” and “animation.”

“Unique” represents our desire bring joy to people everywhere with our unique works.

“Antique” represents our hope that no matter how much time passes, Japanese anime and manga works will remain valuable like precious antiques.

Japan is known for its “animation” (Japanese: アニメーション), so we’ve incorporated aspects of both the English letter “A” and the Japanese character「ア」into our logo.

Anique’s Vision

Entertainment in the world is constantly changing, but few Japanese enterprises can keep up with this rate of evolution. Anique’s vision is to deliver a completely new community experience to fans all over the world.

By building a bridge between content owners, creators and their fans, we can introduce a way to connect deeply with creative works faster than ever before. Beyond that, we want to create a community that transcends all boundaries, where fans can connect with each other.

At the core of this is our principle to create and plan based on a love and understanding of anime and manga, and then to implement the plan with strong technical expertise.

As we help realize the endless possibilities of content owners and creators, we too will continue to evolve.

Core Value

Create valuable services that move hearts and minds.

Through innovative technology and an enduring love of artwork, Anique gives value to that which has no value yet. We strive to reach out to, and move people’s hearts.
