Chara-Ani

Chara-Ani is a Japanese character-goods and e-commerce brand within the KADOKAWA ecosystem. Its activities have included planning, producing, selling and distributing anime, game and character merchandise.

Chara-Ani and collectible products

A Chara-Ani figure credit can refer to product planning, sales, distribution or an exclusive retail release. It does not always mean that Chara-Ani operated the physical molding and painting factory.

How to interpret this credit

Keep Chara-Ani as a merchandise-industry entity, but distinguish its commercial and planning role from the specialist manufacturer when product credits provide both.
