Anime Culture Meets Web3

Announced on March 27, this collaboration aims to enhance Web3 user engagement by targeting anime and manga enthusiasts worldwide.

As part of this partnership, Animoca Brands’ digital identity infrastructure platform, Moca Network, will create an identity layer on the Soneium Blockchain. The first step in this process is Anime ID, a decentralized identity and reputation layer.

Anime ID is spearheaded by San FranTokyo, an initiative focused on integrating traditional anime and manga culture with decentralized technologies.

Anime-Themed Experiences Enter Web3

Moca Network’s AIR SDK will be integrated into Soneium Blockchain. This will enable users to maintain embedded accounts with a single identity across multiple decentralized applications (DApps).

San FranTokyo’s Anime ID will be the first to adopt the AIR SDK, enhancing anime fan engagement on Soneium Blockchain.

San FranTokyo head David Taing emphasized that Anime ID makes blockchain engagement feel “more natural” for anime and manga fans. Meanwhile, Moca Network project lead Kenneth Shek told Cointelegraph:

“Navigating the Web3 space can be overwhelming due to multiple wallets, platforms, and accounts. Anime ID simplifies this experience by providing fans with a single identity to use across their entire fandom.”

Taing also revealed that the first major initiative will be the Anime Art Festival on Soneium Blockchain, which will highlight anime-focused intellectual properties, creators, and Web3 projects.

“We are excited to kick things off with the globally acclaimed Solo Leveling in collaboration with the Otherworld team.”

Sony’s Soneium Blockchain

Sony Block Solutions Labs (Sony BSL) launched the public testnet for Soneium Blockchain on August 28, 2024. As a Layer-2 network, its goal is to foster a fan-driven creator community through blockchain technology.

On January 14, 2025, Soneium Blockchain’s mainnet went live, but not without controversy. Pump.fun’s Alon criticized the network for blacklisting specific memecoins and “nuking everyone’s position to 0.”
