Championing the heart and soul of anime – its creators. At Kasagi Labo, we’ve built a new model that focuses on artists and craftsmen, giving them the opportunity to tell and promote their own stories.

Hear from Our Fans

The heart of anime lies in its fans. We celebrate the voices of our community where fans and creators gather to shape the future together.

"As an event organizer for Kasagi, I've had the privilege of connecting anime enthusiasts across the globe. These community initiative meetups from Tokyo to Singapore highlight our role as fans: we're here to appreciate and champion the creators' work, not to dictate narratives. Our collective excitement could significantly enhance the reach of anime series if the industry acknowledged this passion.

We're not here to influence the narrative; instead, we aim to celebrate and promote the creators' artistry. As I organize each event, I'm reminded that our role is to honor the creativity of the artists, to amplify their voices, and to let the world know of the incredible narratives they weave in the world of anime."

"Kasagi is a close-knit community that feels like family. I've met incredible people and enjoy daily activities like anime, music, and conversations. The project values community involvement and skills. As a member of the otaku committee, we collaborate on tasks, gaining exclusive information and a sense of purpose. Our collective effort drives the project's growth and our opinions matter.

Fan involvement is crucial for a project's success. Fans generate hype and passion, interact with content, and organize events like cosplay and member meetings. Their perspectives as users are invaluable, shaping the project's direction. A strong fan base attracts new consumers and boosts the project's credibility."

"I'm Vaibhav Obero, I joined Kasagi during its early stages through a friend. What sets Kasagi apart from other projects is the founders' availability and responsiveness. They actively engage with holders, gather feedback, and foster interaction on platforms. This direct interaction is truly special.

When we watch anime or any show, we often crave a glimpse behind the scenes, as our connection to the show grows. We yearn to learn more about the creative process, the thoughts behind a particular scene, and how it came to life. Making an anime is a complex endeavor, and conversing with the creators helps us appreciate the tremendous effort invested. Moreover, interacting with creators can be inspiring and motivational for fans, as it may ignite their own creative aspirations."

"Joining the Kasagi community has transformed my anime journey entirely. It's incredible how we all share theories and interpretations during our late-night discussions. Striking the balance between fan input and creative autonomy can be a hard task. The ideal state for me, is for authors to have full control of their own story, as fans we ought to give full trust and to support the author's creativity. Fan-input comes during merchandising and side story stages. As a member of Kasagi and its otaku committee, I am able to see and provide inputs on the development of merchandise that kasagi partners with. This is in line with my ideals of connecting with creators to help produce the best merchandise that will commemorate and immortalize our favorite scenes in anime."

SAM LIM

‍KASAGI COMMITTEE MEMBER, PHILIPPINES

One of my most cherished memories of Kasagi is engaging in an intense debate about the ending of an anime. This discussion allowed different perspectives to emerge, ultimately deepening my appreciation for the storyline. If creators were to directly engage with us, they could gain valuable insights into how their work impacts audiences, leading to the creation of more empathetic narratives. By fostering such engagement, the industry could achieve an unprecedented synergy between fans and creators.

Furthermore, it has already been proven that fan engagement influences narrative and artistic choices made by anime creators. Some anime series retain filler characters to the extent that they influence crucial moments in the story, demonstrating their integral role despite the authors' initial disregard.
