The anime song DJ event "Anifre," supported by the social business community "Waccel" (Location: Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo; Organizer: Yoshihiro Shimamura; General Producer: Tomohiro Sumitani), held a commemorative event on Sunday, April 12, 2026, from 13:30 to 19:30 (close 20:30) to mark the start of its second year.
This event was a great success, bringing the entire venue together with special guest artist Kevin Mitsunaga of fhána.
■ Background and Purpose of Anifre
"We want to create a place where people can be honest about their 'likes' and fully express them." Anifre started with this idea.
Anifre is a place for "people who usually can't show their otaku side" and "people who want to say what they like." Anime, games, idols, VTubers... anything you like is fine. "The feeling of liking something is cool."
Here, no one needs to hold back. With a little help from alcohol, the aim is to create a space where all suppressed passion and sealed-away stories can be unleashed.
■ The First Event of the Second Year! Overview and Unique Excitement (Achievements)
This time, marking the opening of the second year, Kevin Mitsunaga of fhána was invited as a special guest. During the DJ play highlight, all participants at the venue danced together to fhána's signature hit song "Aozora no Rhapsody," creating an overwhelming sense of unity and enthusiasm unique to Anifre.
■ Absolutely Enjoyable for Beginners! Three "Key Points" and New Initiatives
Since many customers attending Anifre are "first-time anime song eventgoers," the following new initiatives have been introduced to ensure everyone can immediately enjoy themselves:
1. Introduction of "Welcome Drinks" for first-time participants
As an initial opportunity for first-time visitors to enjoy Anifre, we started offering a free "Welcome Drink." This has made it easier for participants to communicate with each other and with staff.
2. New project "Teach Me, Steel-sensei" for everyone to dance!
For those who "don't know how to enjoy themselves for the first time," we launched a lecture project "Teach Me, Steel-sensei" where they can learn at least one way to enjoy the event. This time, everyone at the venue danced to M!LK's "Suki Sugite Metsu!," creating a time filled with smiles for both beginners and regulars. This project will be expanded through official social media in the future.
3. Transition to an official website booking system with a request function
The participation booking system, previously handled by "TwiPla," has been updated and transitioned to direct booking from the official website.
The biggest feature is the implementation of a function that allows participants to enter "song requests they want to hear at the event" when booking. This is a commitment to creating a more satisfying space that directly reflects customers' "likes."
■ Future Developments
Anifre, now in its second year, will further strengthen its social media presence. In addition to photo-centric reports, we plan to actively deliver video content showcasing the real excitement and fun of the venue, as well as the new "Teach Me, Steel-sensei" project.
Anifre: A place to talk, dance, and embody "otaku is cool"!
Anifre will continue to evolve.
