For hardcore anime fan and at the same time a VR user too, this news must be exciting for you. Recently, HTC Viveport has announced that they are working together with Bandai Namco Pictures to bring the anime content to virtual reality platform. Sounds cool, isn’t it?

Some of their popular anime products and series are “Aikatsu!“, “Battle Spirits“, “Tiger & Bunny“, “Gintama” and “Sergeant Keroro“. Maybe some of the titles ring a bell to you.
How’s the Partnership Works?
In this partnership, both Viveport and Bandai Namco will work together to create and evolve the VR ecosystem that can provide more virtual experiences to the users. So in the next few months, Viveport will introduce new services for users to enjoy immersive animations and virtual social interactions. Soon we can see anime content will be available on Viveport. From Bandai, they expect that their anime fans will be able to “dive” directly into the world of their creations from anywhere in the world.
