Our Vision

Since 2012, AnimeFanatika's passion has always been to grow the South African Anime community and bring more people into this super sugoi genre.

AnimeFanatika is a South African Anime Social Club and has expanded with international members who have joined us from America, Japan, China, Australia and Europe and we continue to grow. Not only do we celebrate our love of Japan and Anime but also the international aspect of this genre.

For more than ten years, Takeshi & Ookami have endeavoured to grow the Anime community in SA by reaching out and connecting South African Anime Fanatiks via social media, Anime Meetups with our community helping us. With Shiro (Manga), Retara (Japan Correspondent) and Nekobara (Cosplay) joining our team we are taking AnimeFanatika to new heights.
