Fantia Inc. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President: Hirotaka Yoshida; hereinafter 'Fantia'), which operates the creator support service 'Fantia,' celebrated its 10th anniversary in May 2026. On this milestone, we are pleased to announce that the number of registered users has exceeded 20 million, and the total amount of support has surpassed 100 billion yen. Since its launch in 2016, Fantia has been supported as a place where creators in various genres, including illustrations, manga, cosplay, and gravure, can deliver their content directly to fans. At this 10-year milestone, the support amount for the last year has reached a record high. Over the past 10 years, the total support amount for the last year has exceeded 25.5 billion yen, and it continues to grow as one of the leading platforms in Japan with over 234 million monthly PV. Fantia will be rolling out major updates for two consecutive months in May and June. First, 'Meet & Greet,' where creators and fans can connect one-on-one, will be introduced (scheduled for release in June). In June, we plan to release 'Meet & Greet,' which allows for one-on-one video calls. By going beyond traditional content and enabling real-time personal interaction, we will deepen bonds with fans and provide a new pillar of support for creators. Second, a major update to the 'translation function' that connects fans around the world (released on May 21). With this update, articles, plan descriptions, and product summaries posted by creators will be automatically translated into the viewing user's set language. By supporting English, Chinese (Simplified/Traditional), and Korean, and removing language barriers, it has become easier for overseas fans to join monthly plans and purchase content. Through this, we will connect individual creativity, such as illustrations and gravure, which is supported beyond language barriers, to global-scale support, and maximize the potential of creators. Fantia will continue to build a system where creators can focus on their creative activities and their passion is fairly evaluated and rewarded. Starting with these consecutive updates, we will continue to evolve for the next 10 years as a platform where fans around the world can enjoy the individual creativity of Japan more deeply and closely.
