Sekai is a French startup studio that creates interactive consumer entertainment experiences using official anime licenses, starting with Naruto. The company secured a global license (excluding Japan and China) from TV Tokyo/Shueisha to develop Naruto-branded mobile apps, digital collectibles, and real-life events or fan conventions. Sekai is actively developing and experimenting with its first mobile app, aiming for social, interactive experiences rather than a direct Pokémon Go clone. The team emphasizes hands-on control and validation with the IP holder while partnering with external experts for specific tasks. Sekai plans to roll out a new IP every year and does not want to be known solely for Naruto. The company has raised €10 million (≈$10.9M) from investors to fund its work.
