Anime Fans:

  1. Anime Conventions and Events:

    • Major anime conventions attract thousands of fans. Setting up a booth, sponsoring an event, or simply attending can get you in direct contact with this demographic.

  2. Anime Streaming Platforms:

    • Websites like Crunchyroll, Funimation, and others have millions of users. Advertising or partnerships with such platforms can be very effective.

    • Sites/apps where fans read manga, such as MangaPlus or Webtoon, can be potential advertising platforms.

    • Join forums like MyAnimeList, Anime-Planet, or AniList. Engage in discussions, share news about your app, or even advertise.

  5. Social Media:

    • Anime fans frequently use platforms like Twitter, Instagram, and Pinterest. Use anime-related hashtags or collaborate with anime influencers to increase visibility.

Gamers:

  3. Gaming Websites and Forums:

    • Websites like IGN, GameSpot, Kotaku, and forums like NeoGAF or ResetEra often have advertisement opportunities.

  4. Streaming Platforms:

    • Platforms like Twitch, YouTube Gaming, and Facebook Gaming are where millions of gamers hang out. Collaborate with streamers or run ads to reach this audience.

Cross-Promotion:

Since there's an overlap in interests between anime fans, gamers, and procrastinators:

  1. Collaborate with Influencers: Find influencers who cater to all three demographics. Many YouTubers or streamers fit this profile.
