OpenSea and YOAKE have joined forces to bring an exclusive NFT collection based on the hit anime series The Seven Deadly Sins to the Soneium blockchain. If you're into NFTs and anime, this is a launch you won't want to miss.
According to a press release sent to crypto.news, the NFT collection, titled "YOAKE & The Seven Deadly Sins Anime Series," is available exclusively on the OpenSea NFT marketplace. Starting March 25 at 5:00 AM GMT, collectors can begin minting their very own anime NFTs.
Each NFT is priced at 0.002 ETH (around $4.12 at the current OpenSea crypto price). The best part? Fans can mint an unlimited amount of these collectibles within the first 72 hours of the launch. This is a major step in blending anime culture with blockchain technology.
YOAKE, a fan engagement platform merging Japanese pop culture with Web3 technology, is the first company to bring officially licensed NFTs from The Seven Deadly Sins: Cursed by Light to the blockchain. For those who may not know, this anime movie is currently available on Netflix and follows the adventures of Meliodas and his fellow warriors in the kingdom of Britannia.
The OpenSea NFT collection features an iconic scene from the movie, showing Meliodas and his younger brother Zeldris sitting in the sunlight, raising their chalices in a solemn vow. The collection is backed by Startale, which played a strategic role in acquiring the rights for YOAKE.
After this launch, YOAKE has big plans to expand the world of anime-themed collectibles on-chain. Sota Moriyama, CBO of YOAKE, stated that the company is dedicated to making Web3 more accessible through culture, particularly by introducing officially licensed anime collectibles to the blockchain space.
"YOAKE is committed to pushing Web3 adoption through the power of culture, and there's no better way to bring this vision to life than by introducing officially licensed anime collectibles on-chain," said Moriyama.
Meanwhile, Devin Finzer, CEO of OpenSea, expressed his excitement about collaborating with YOAKE, highlighting how this project will bring more anime fans into the Web3 ecosystem.
"We're proud to facilitate bringing top-tier franchises like The Seven Deadly Sins directly to fans with YOAKE," said Finzer.
The collaboration between OpenSea and YOAKE isn't the first time anime has entered the NFT space. In October 2024, Animoca Brands Japan launched an NFT collection based on the classic cyberpunk movie Ghost in the Shell. However, those NFTs were released on SORAH, Animoca's own trading platform, rather than OpenSea.
As anime-themed NFTs continue to gain traction, it's clear that blockchain technology is becoming an integral part of digital collectibles. If you're a fan of The Seven Deadly Sins, an NFT enthusiast, or just looking for the latest news for crypto, this collection is a must-watch.
