*** ### The anime
GATE 2: Tides of Conflict is the next chapter in Takumi Yanai's GATE franchise. The original GATE anime built a dedicated global fanbase, with over 7.7 million light novels sold and an active community across platforms. GATE 2 expands that universe with a new story arc, following the Japan Self-Defense Forces as they undertake new missions across the troubled seas of a parallel world. The anime is produced by Studio M2 (known for Pluto on Netflix) with GENCO as associate producer. GENCO also produced the original GATE: Thus the JSDF Fought There. Oshi is a member of the production committee alongside Kasagi Labo, serving as the master licensing rights holder. **Production roadmap:** [gate2.co](http://gate2.co) *** ### Why GATE 2 The GATE franchise has one of the most passionate fan communities in military fantasy anime. For years, fans have kept the series alive through fan fiction, original artwork, and creative explorations of the world of GATE. That energy made GATE a natural fit for Oshi's first campaign. GATE 2 is Oshi's pilot campaign and the first membership-based program on the platform. We chose this project to build the foundation for how fans and creators connect on Oshi, with the goal of extending that model to future anime productions. Oshi holds master licensing rights for GATE 2. That covers streaming, merchandise, marketing, distribution, and all future licensing across formats and territories. It also means direct access to content that rarely leaves the studio: storyboards, character design sketches, key animation frames, and director commentary. *** ### The Fan Experience Campaign
> ⚓ **Campaign window: Feb 27 – May 27, 2026 (3 months)** The campaign features seven naval-themed ranks from Seaman ($5) to Admiral ($10,000). Each rank unlocks its own set of rewards, including production art, digital and physical collectibles, and behind-the-scenes content delivered throughout the production period. Officer tiers (Lieutenant through Admiral) are only available during the campaign window and include credits placement, signed collectibles, and experiential rewards. Every supporter is enrolled in the [Oshi Membership Rewards](/start-here/oshi-membership-rewards.md) (OMR) program, which includes three reward tracks: the Merit Leaderboard (all members), Officer Rewards with exclusive questlines (Lieutenant+), and Victory Drops tied to community milestones. A portion of every contribution also funds the [Creator Reward Pool](/start-here/creator-reward-pool.md), providing ongoing compensation directly to individual creators. Production continues regardless of participation. The campaign is about access and connection, not whether the anime gets made. *** **Related articles** * [Understanding Ranks](/gate-2-campaign/understanding-ranks.md): The seven ranks and what each level unlocks * [Reward Details by Tier](/gate-2-campaign/reward-details-by-rank-tiers.md): Complete breakdown of what each rank includes * [Digital Collectibles](/gate-2-campaign/digital-collectibles.md): Production art, key frames, and campaign-exclusive digital items * [Oshi Membership Rewards](/start-here/oshi-membership-rewards.md): Merit, Officer Rewards, and Victory Drops * [Officer Quests](/gate-2-campaign/officer-quests.md): What each Officer tier's questline looks like * [Where Do Your Contributions Go?](/start-here/where-do-your-contributions-go.md): How Oshi allocates resources * [Campaign Timeline](/gate-2-campaign/campaign-timeline.md): Key dates, deadlines, and what happens after * [Getting Started](/start-here/getting-started.md): Step-by-step guide to getting started {% hint style="info" %} **Need help?** · [Discord](https://discord.gg/oshi) {% endhint %} --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
