Ghost in the Shell NFTs: Iconic Anime Enters the Blockchain World

Animoca Brands Japan will release a special Ghost in the Shell NFT collection. Launching on October 31, the Shell NFT collection is a new way for anime fans to get involved with the classic series in the blockchain era as part of the Animetraits project.

Shell NFT Collection

Ghost in the Shell, which started as a manga in 1989 and became an anime in 1995, is about artificial intelligence and human identity. Now, Animoca Brands Japan is taking it to the next level with the Shell NFT collection, a new way to combine anime heritage with digital ownership.

You can get involved with the Ghost in the Shell universe through these NFTs and own a piece of the franchise in a digital format. This is part of the Animetraits project to connect Japanese anime with blockchain. For Ghost in the Shell fans, the NFTs are collectibles that celebrate the series’ cyberpunk style and culture.

NFT Collection Details and Availability

The Shell NFT collection will have 500 Ethereum-based NFTs, each with unique traits that can be used across the Animoca Brands ecosystem, including Cool Cats, Mocaverse and San FranTokyo. Each pack contains one character’s trait set, and if you own any of the above-mentioned PFPs, you can enjoy dressing up your PFP on the AnimeTraits site. Plus, users can turn their dressed-up images into custom Ghost in the Shell goods, according to the announcement.

Priced at 0.018 ETH (about $47), these NFTs will be available on Animoca’s SORAH marketplace, where you can buy with cryptocurrency or credit card. By focusing on community over exclusivity, the idea is to bring more people into the world of Ghost in the Shell through digital collectibles.

Cultural Impact and Industry Trends

The Shell NFT collection is part of the growing trend in Japan’s entertainment industry to explore blockchain. By putting Ghost in the Shell into NFT, Animoca Brands Japan is part of the movement to reach local and international audiences and offer new experiences to fans.

Moreover, this could also open the door for other anime franchises to enter Web3. As one of the first anime NFT collections, the Shell series might inspire other classic franchises to do the same. This is a new chapter for Ghost in the Shell where fans don’t just watch or read the story but own a part of the digital universe.

What’s Next?

The Ghost in the Shell NFTs is the beginning. These will be the first of many under the Animetraits project, character items, iconic outfits, and more to come.

Overall, it’s not just a collectable drop; it’s a moment for Ghost in the Shell fans and for Animoca Brands to bring Japanese anime into the digital era. The Shell NFTs invite fans to engage directly with the franchise and pave the way for more anime to enter Web3.
