AYAKA OHIRA co-founded Shinsei Galverse in 2022 as a generative collection of 8,888 Gal NFTs drawn from 1980s and 1990s magical-girl and cyberpunk anime aesthetics. She personally created approximately 2,400 traits for the collection, which sold out within hours of its April 14, 2022 release and led OpenSea sales volume for several days after launch. During NFT.NYC 2022, her Galverse artwork was selected for display in Times Square.
AYAKA OHIRA has described NFTs as a mechanism for independent creators to crowdfund production and retain financial control outside the traditional anime-industry model. True to that approach, Shinsei Galverse channeled proceeds and community support from its NFT collection toward developing an original anime series. NFT holders contributed creative feedback on elements including clothing, planets, weapons, characters, and story details, while Ohira retained final authority over the high-level story. The anime was released on June 25, 2025, co-produced with Arch Inc. and animated by Studio S.o. K. The project also trained a Mama AI model on her illustrations, allowing community members to generate material that expands the Galverse universe. AYAKA OHIRA is also affiliated with WAGAMI Labs.
