Job description

Ready to create history? Join the Genesis of a 15,000-Person International Event!

We are recruiting core launching members for "Ōta TOKYO 2026" , a cosplay and fan art-focused anime festival set to debut in Bengaluru, India in 10th January 2026 . This will be India's first event of this scale, dedicated to truly embedding Japanese pop culture (specifically the creator-driven culture akin to Doujinshi events) into the local community.

The challenge is immense : bridging the gap between a love for Japanese content and fostering a local creator support culture. This is not mere assistance; your passion and self-starter attitude will directly shape the history of a 15,000-person international event.

4 Irresistible Reasons to Join This Mission

The overwhelming draw for applicants lies in the "founding experience" and "real-world connections."

Rare Experience as a Founding Member of a 15,000-Attendee International Festival
You will be deeply involved in the entire process, from concept planning and execution to on-the-ground troubleshooting. This "founding experience" will be an unparalleled asset in your career, setting you apart from the competition.

2.Exclusive Networking with Japanese Anime & Business VIPs

The core organizing committee consists primarily of Japanese CEOs, entrepreneurs, and VC investors —all united by a deep love for anime. Your participation and collaboration will grant you direct access and networking opportunities with key players and VIPs in the Japanese anime and business sectors. The connections you make here could define your future.

3.Deep Cultural Immersion Through Japanese Collaboration

Working closely with a highly motivated Japanese team offers more than just language practice; it provides profound insight into Japanese work ethics, business practices, and culture. Your "cross-cultural adaptability," essential for a global career, will skyrocket.

4.Tangible, Career-Defining Accomplishment

The proven track record of "Launching India's first cosplay & fan art focused festival" will serve as irrefutable evidence of your execution ability, leadership, and resilience in any future job or university application.
