Vision & Mission
Anime is more than just entertainment - it’s a global phenomenon that transcends cultures, bringing fans together through its distinctive art, rich storytelling, and unforgettable characters. Yet, despite its worldwide success, the anime industry remains bound by traditional systems that limit access, innovation, and creative autonomy.
While platforms like Kickstarter transformed indie games, and Patreon enabled creators to connect with their communities, anime still lacks a dedicated space where fans can meaningfully support, engage with, and be part of the journey behind the stories they love.
That’s where Oshi comes into play.
Our Vision
We envision a world where anime is more than something you watch, it’s something you’re part of. Where fans aren’t just spectators, they’re part of its evolution. A globally connected, creator-first ecosystem where fans and studios navigate the future of anime together.
Where creators have the freedom to tell their stories, and fans can follow along and support the journey, from the first sketch to the final scene.
Our Mission
We’re creating the infrastructure that enables:
Fans to not just support, but rise with the stories they believe in - part of their journey and success.
Creators to retain ownership, access sustainable support, and maintain lasting creative control.
An industry evolving beyond gatekeeping - toward openness, collaboration, and shared purpose.
Stories grow through connection - when they’re supported, shared, and seen.
Oshi is the spark that brings anime’s next chapter to life, and we’re all part of where it goes next.
Shaping a New Era of Anime
Anime is at a turning point. Despite its global success, the industry still operates within traditional systems that limit access, innovation, and the potential for deeper fan engagement. Studios face structural challenges in securing financial support, and fans remain passive consumers rather than active participants. Oshi offers a new path forward. With a foundation of transparency and shared participation, Oshi removes industry barriers and gives both fans and creators the power to shape the future of anime - no more middlemen, no more gatekeepers.
