The @Azuki TTJ isn't just "merch" to me. it's symbolises the strongest community ever; and the strongest community deserves a Twin Tiger Anthem — So I reached out to a Japanese rapper (Judicious Broski) for a collab sometime ago and it's finally ready for the garden to enjoy:
The Azuki branding is so strong that it turned everyone into an entrepreneur from their couch
“Bro Azuki can be a fashion brand!”
“Just make a video game bro trust”
“Lean into Beanz. It’s the way.”
“Omg azuki is perfect for Webtoon! Why haven’t you done one yet?”
“Azuki needs to be a full series anime. Why don’t you have it out yet”
Ty for all the ideas fam 😂

Also, Alpha pre-order redemptions will be going up soon, so stayed tuned for an update next week.
Azuki TCG is now in Ageless TCG in Lomita, CA as well!
We are starting with SoCal shops, then will do full US distro for our first core set releasing next year and then global expansion thereafter.
Local tournies will start this year with large scale tournies planned for 2026.
Just in: The @Azuki x Moser luxury watch collaboration has been featured in the Financial Times.
An excellent read on the intersection of Web3, NFTs and Swiss luxury.
Link below.
New bonds, shared love, and moments that remind us why the @Azuki community is special. A little grit, a little street, filled with stickers, posters, and memories that make us who we are.
This is for everyone who shows up, near or far, and keeps the garden spirit alive. IKZ! ⛩️
1.6k+ concurrent viewers just tuned in on Anime.com!
It feels like 8 years of work has led to this moment.
From launching 0x in 2017 to starting Azuki in 2021, I’ve always believed in what communities can build together.
Tonight, that vision took its next step. 🧵
Anime.com ranks #3 on Google for “anime.”
Google just limited AI models to the top 10 search results (down from 100). Visibility in the top 10 isn’t just SEO anymore, it’s essentially distribution in the AI era.
We're laying the foundation to become the home for anime.
Very excited for the first @animecom LIVE today.
TLDR: The first episode of a new anime series will premiere live on there.
Powered by $ANIME so you can use Animecoin to purchase official digital collectibles from the IP, use them in the chat or to build your profile.
For me it's gonna be like 6am (premiere goes live at 7pm PT) so I will watch tomorrow morning, but I have very high expectations here.
If it's a success and it's becoming a real player for anime streaming, then this could be an insanely good funnel for the website and for $ANIME as a token/currency
Tune in LIVE every Monday and collect the full set of Gintama sticker reactions!
