Shinobanai! CryptoNinja Sakuya Anime Gets 3rd Season in 2025

The reliable X (beforehand Twitter) chronicle for Shinobanai! CryptoNinja Sakuya, the CryptoNinja non-fungible token (NFT) project’s anime, announced on Tuesday that a third season has been inexperienced-lit for next year.

Akifumi Nonaka (Dinosaur Biyori), the anime’s director since the first season, returns to order the third season at Fanworks, and Toru Hosokawa (Dinosaur Biyori, Polar Gain’s Café) is again writing the scripts.

The project describes the anime as “the world’s first television anime series for NFT characters.” The first season premiered in October 2023, and the 2d season debuted on January 9.

In the memoir of the first season, the Crypto Scroll enshrined in the ninja metropolis of Kōka has been stolen, leading to a war royale among ninja. Sakuya, Nemu, and Xiaolan were living their each day lives till they must unite their forces.

Investor Ikehaya produced the CryptoNinja NFT project in 2021 with illustrations by Rii2 linked to digital tokens. The project had described itself as Japan’s largest and most active NFT neighborhood in 2022 with 15,000 Ether (about 50 million yen or US$430,000 in February 2022) earned from a neighborhood of over 50,000 fans and creators.

The anime studio Fanworks (Aggretsuko, Ani ni Tsukeru Kusuri wa Nai!), online pop custom commerce firm Tokyo Otaku Mode, startup incubator platform Tsucrea, and digital remark material firm The Battle announced the anime plans in February 2022. The project then debuted its first anime promotional video and began auditioning solid contributors and musicians in November 2022.
