The Otaku Box, the oldest and largest woman-owned anime subscription service, has moved to 100% exclusive IP for all merchandise while still letting fans influence new characters through monthly votes. Subscribers can expect the same beloved experience, including ecchi art, scale figures, and fan-driven input, with the added guarantee that every product is truly one-of-a-kind.

DOVER, Del., March 10, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The Otaku Box, a woman-owned anime subscription service founded and operated by Liz for over seven years, today announces a complete move to exclusive IP for all products in its monthly subscription boxes. While The Otaku Box has always offered exclusive merchandise, the company is now taking the extra step of using 100% intellectual property unique to and created by The Otaku Box. Some of these new original characters and storylines will remain inspired by the popular characters, waifus, and tropes that fans vote for each month, ensuring that the box experience remains engaging, familiar, and fan-driven. "No major changes will be occurring" Liz reassures fans "instead, subscribers will see even more options for influencing the box and the exclusive collectible received each month will likely increase in value even further".

A Natural Evolution

We want to reassure everyone that the core experience remains the same," says Liz, Founder and CEO. "We'll still feature fan-favorite characters and designs, just with the added confidence that everything is truly one-of-a-kind.

Post this

Previously, around 90% of The Otaku Box's products were created under its own IP. Now, the remaining 10% will also become fully original, further solidifying the brand's commitment to providing one-of-a-kind collectibles. Fans, however, can rest assured: this move does not mark a major shift in the overall style or content of the box.

"I've always listened to my community's feedback and favorite tropes through our monthly vote," says Liz, Founder and CEO. "This transition to 100% exclusive IP is simply the next logical step. It lets me continue delivering the same high-quality, limited-edition items our subscribers love, all while maintaining creative freedom and originality. Fans will still have the option to vote for their favorite waifu(s) and that will still continue to inspire each and every box that I make."

Trusted by Fans Worldwide

  • 7+ Years in Business: Established track record of delighting anime enthusiasts
  • 55,000+ Customers: By far the largest subscriber base in the anime box market
  • 5-Star Trustpilot Rating: Over 1,700 glowing reviews from loyal fans, The Otaku Box features the highest rating of any company in the anime niche on TrustPilot
  • Global Dominance: The Otaku Box has outlasted previous competitors, retaining its crown as the oldest and largest anime subscription box available

From exclusive scale figures to fun ecchi (flirty) art styles, The Otaku Box continues to offer items ideal for fans aged 13 and up (a racier version was previously available). Many of these collectibles, such as specially designed scale anime 'waifu' figures, 'waifu' coins, and collectible 'waifu' cards have become sought-after by third-party buyers, often selling for more than the original subscription price.

"We want to reassure everyone that the core experience remains the same," Liz adds. "You'll still see the themes and characters you love, now with the added confidence that everything in your box is truly one-of-a-kind."

This change will be phased in gradually and be completed in early Q2, 2025. For more information about The Otaku Box or to subscribe, visit theotakubox.com.

About The Otaku Box

Founded by Liz over seven years ago, The Otaku Box is a woman-owned subscription service delivering exclusive anime-themed merchandise to fans around the globe. By combining ongoing fan engagement - through a popular monthly vote and online anime community - and a commitment to exclusive products, The Otaku Box has grown into the oldest and largest anime subscription box on the market. Its dedication to customer satisfaction, creativity, and community-driven innovation continues to set it apart, offering a truly unmatched experience for otakus, general anime fans, and collectors alike.
