Variety in NFTs and its possibility

While NFTs are currently commonly seen in the ﬁled of art, culture and music, it is no doubt the market will broaden its reach through out all diﬀerent industries.

The NFT Records as well as Avex technologies being launched from Japan, paying attention to how diﬀerent countries perceive the platform could provide insights whether youʼre investor or “fan” of the digital token.This could be said for a ﬁeld such as “Takaraziennes,” the performers at the Takarazuka Revue.

With NFTs, I would like to be able to manage digital art version of the art performance by Takaraziennes comments Masahiro Watanabe, an entrepreneur who is now looking to provide its own unique services for fans and Japansʼ renown musical theater troupe based in Takarazuka, specializes in Broadway-like musicals with emphasis on song and dance.

The plays feature male and female characters, despite all actors being female. Japanese fans of the troupe are almost exclusively female, and stars are treated like Hollywood celebrities.

Masahiro Watanabe adds to his comment. Even if it is a “private” fan club, all kinds of support are provided and taken care of by fans, such as ticket agency for members, pick-up and drop-oﬀ of cars, payment of meals, and holding of fan events.

At Siennes Butler, one of our goals is to assist fans to experience variety of events and services with the starts, Takarasiennes. One of the unique event related services here in Japan is what people call a personal butler hiring experience where people can temporarily hire a butler as to enjoy the festivity in the occasion of birthday parties or other celebratory purposes. With the rise of needs within such cultural niche event, incorporating such aspects for fan to be able to communicate directly with celebrities by having lunch together or asking for advice is something I believe will continue to grow in needs.

Either NFTs or cameo, a fan engagement platform, or Siennes Butler,a broadway-like musical starts engagement platform, one thing is certain. That the we are heading towards the future in a fast pace. All road lead to how fan engagement will improve in the future and although the uncertainty remains, the excitement of how technology and human can co create is indeed a captivating one. Looking ahead for future news in the space of NFTs, Tech, Culture and Entertainment.
