Anime - a niche medium, a global phenomenon, and a personal passion for many - connects people, and from our studio room to the convention floor, our crew engages with industry professionals and fellow fans alike to keep you informed and entertained.
Everyone is invited to kick back and relax at Otaku Hourly - your backdoor anime hangout.
Jonathan “Joestar” Beltran is the founder and show host of Otaku Hourly. After his music radio show pitch got prematurely rejected, he turned his sight on anime and never regretted it.
“I just want to make space for great conversations to happen and pay it forward to the community and industry that nurtures my love for anime.”
