This all ties in nicely with the AniRep system wherein it is expected collectors will be rewarded with $MANGA. 

Introducing AniRep:

The AniRep system serves as a comprehensive tool for evaluating your collection. It takes into account factors such as the rarity of your items, the levels of your figurines, the attachments you've added to your figurines, and other unique attributes.

It is a dynamic metric that reflects the value and uniqueness of your collection within our community. As we evolve, the numbers associated with AniRep may change to reflect real-time data, ensuring accuracy and relevance.

We aim to offer you a clear and informative tool that allows you to showcase and comprehend the importance of your collection within our ecosystem. Additionally, it provides insights into how the team will be managing select airdrop allocations offered towards our community, as well as your individual collector impact on the Anime Foundation's upcoming $MANGA ecosystem.

How to gain more AniRep at this time?

All collectibles within our ecosystem will be considered.

Enhance your figurine's level for multipliers and customize them with emotes, skins, and worlds to maximize their unique AniRep values.
