Our collaboration with Kintsugi is becoming more and more exciting! Following their announcement to join Japan’s billion-dollar DigiDen Digital City Garden Initiative, we are planning and developing a strategy with Kintsugi to enable .Anime and .Manga Web3 domains for DNS through the gTLDs to be applied during the next ICANN initiative. If the application is successful, it will be an important step forward towards integrating traditional Web2 functionalities into our portfolio of Web3 domains.
Kintsugi is known for offering anime fans innovative ways to interact with their favorite shows and characters. Building on our successful partnership that launched the .Anime and .Manga domains, we are now working together on a strategy to plan an application to ICANN to acquire the gTLD equivalents. Together we push the boundaries of digital identity and online presence.
The main focus of this collaboration is to take another step towards enabling DNS for our Web3 TLDs through an application at ICANN. This initiative represents a significant effort to merge the familiar aspects of Web2, such as DNS capabilities, with the advanced, decentralized features of Web3.
“Our pursuit of the .anime and .manga Web3 domains through this ICANN application represents Kintsugi’s commitment to empowering creators, cultivating global fan communities, and uniting the global anime and manga cultures under distinctive digital identities that they create with can proudly claim.” said Kintsugi’s CEO, Ron Scovil.
One of the most exciting aspects of this partnership is the potential improvement of .Anime and .Manga domains. By successfully integrating DNS functionality, these domains will not only retain their existing Web3 capabilities, but also integrate traditional Web2 features. This additional functionality would ensure a seamless experience for users, combining the best of both worlds and opening up new possibilities and more domain use cases.
With these popular anime conferences right around the corner, there’s no better time to make plans for our ICANN gTLD application with Kintsugi!

If successful in our ICANN gTLD application, these domains could benefit from additional Web2 functionality in addition to their existing Web3 capabilities, making them a versatile asset for anyone looking to grow their online presence in the anime and manga communities .
