Additionally, several key players are introducing anime-based merchandise, including printed tee-shirts, mobile covers, bottles, pens, notebooks, books, keychains, posters, and cards to expand their product portfolio and enhance the experience of individuals, thus impelling the market. Furthermore, the adoption of virtual reality technologies such as 3D, artificial intelligence, and blockchain in making anime content is providing a boost to the market. In line with this, the creation of customized content for the local geographical audience is significantly supporting the overall demand. Moreover, the growing adoption of electronic reading devices, such as e-readers, to enhance the experience of the reader is impacting the anime market positively.
