Azuki NFT is a collection of 10,000 hand-drawn NFTs that give users access to The Garden. The project is inspired by crypto, zen and anime aesthetics. It states that it is a corner of the internet especially designed for creators, artists, Web3 builders, and enthusiasts to create a decentralized future for the NFTs.
Access to an Azuki NFT gives holders a chance to be a part of random airdrops, an exclusive discord, and experiences within the Azuki ecosystem.
In 2022, Azuki set out to create a decentralized anime brand, where the community can co-create and contribute to the IP and stories the tell, forging a new model of community-driven entertainment.
The Azuki community, through its creation of 100 subcommunities, a vast collection of fan and commissioned art, multiple community-led events around the world, and much more, has emphatically shown that it's possible to birth a new IP that originates from web3 in the fast world of anime.
From creating the largest decentralized anime IP, to enriching the anime fandom experience with groundbreaking products, Azuki’s mission is to build the future of anime by harnessing the power of community and blockchain technology.
"We rise together. We build together. We grow together." いくぞ IKZ!
Through decentralized IP co-created with the community and innovative products that enrich the anime fan experience, they're building the future of anime.
Azuki is working towards real-life NFTs, such as streetwear and collectibles.
Here are some things created so far.
Collectors can earn emblems for collecting specific traits. For example, owning an Azuki with a Gold trait earns the Gold emblem on their Collector Profile.
Collectors create identities, stories and businesses around their Azukis, building the open anime universe together with them and the main characters depicted above. Together, they've formed a digital world and community called the Garden.
