AR Anime Derivatives Print | The Consumption Code of Z-Generation
Trends of UV Printing on Anime Derivatives
In recent years, with the rapid development of the ACG culture, data shows that there are about 460 million Pan-ACG user group in my country in 2021. The proportion of consumption of peripherals purchased in the Pan-ACG user group in my country has reached 56.2%. This cannot be avoided from the current hot ACG valley circle. What exactly is the “valley circle”? It is understood that the two-dimensional valley circle specifically refers to the circle of ACG culture enthusiasts who are keen on collecting derivative peripheral products related to copyrighted works such as animation, comics, and games (ACG), usually including fans, creators, peripheral merchants and other related groups. UV printing technology is profoundly changing the production mode and market structure of animation peripherals with its high precision, multi-material compatibility and rapid customization capabilities. Anime IP derivatives have a short life cycle and need to keep up with hot spots. UV printing supports single-piece orders, and manufacturers can quickly launch limited-edition peripherals (such as co-branded clothing and holiday-themed products) to meet the needs of the Z-generation for “exclusive collections”
UV Printed Anime Cards---Z-Generation's Social Currency
The Z-generation, who grew up in the mobile Internet era, are staunch fans of the ACG culture, and the core group of the Valley Circle is mainly those born in the 2000s and 2010s. They mainly show their love for a certain anime or character by purchasing peripheral products. These products are not only collectible, but also become a new social currency among players. Anime cards are undoubtedly an important medium for social interaction among teenagers. Students build friendships by exchanging rare cards, and even form a “card circle”. For example, among primary school students, students who own rare “My Little Pony” cards often occupy a higher position in social interaction, and cards have become a symbol of identity and a “hard currency” for social interaction.
Anime cards are normally made of PVC, ABS and plastic, etc., with the advantages of durability, waterproofness and anti-fouling. Digital UV printers can be applied to more than 20 materials such as PVC, acrylic, metal, leather, etc., breaking through the limitations of traditional printing. Through high-precision inkjet (resolution up to 1440dpi), complex animation patterns are directly presented on cards of various materials, supporting single-piece orders and small-batch production to meet fans’ needs for limited edition and co-branded peripherals.
