“The Seven Deadly Sins” is a Japanese fantasy anime series based on popular manga by Nakaba Suzuki published by Kodansha. Set in a fictional medieval realm called Britannia, the anime tells the story of a group of warriors accused of crimes committed. They explore to clear their names. Four seasons of adventures, several films, original video animations or OVAs led by group leader Meliodas.
Opensea’s NFT collection features iconic scenes from the film “The Seven Deadly Sins: Cursed by Light.” There, Meliodas and his younger brother Zeldris sit in the sunlight, sharing a sacred holy grail and a stern vow. This collection is supported by Startale, who has strategically supported Yoake’s acquisition of this IP.
After launching Yoake Entertainment’s CBO, Sota Moriyama says it plans to release more anime-themed collectibles in chains, hoping to promote more fandom engagement into the Web3 space.
“Yoake is committed to promoting the adoption of Web3 through the power of culture, and there is no better way to realize this vision than introducing an on-chain of officially licensed anime collectibles,” Moriyama said in a statement.
Opensea CEO Devin Finzer expressed his excitement about his collaboration with Yoake, a Japanese pop culture theme.
“We are proud to promote the creation of first-class franchises like Seven Fatal Sins directly to yokes and fans,” Fisher said.
Last October, Animoca Brands Japan embarked on a similar venture when it released an NFT collection inspired by the popular Japanese cyberpunk film Ghost in the Shell. However, NFT was launched on Animoca’s trading platform Sorah, not Opensea.
