Okashi Studios is a multimedia startup company founded in February 2005 with headquarters in Fremont, CA (San Francisco Bay Area). Our current staff is primarily composed of artists, writers, and programmers, sharing common interests in anime/manga, gaming, and Japanese culture.

The game in development

We are currently working on a full-length, high-quality ren’ai game for the US market. The title of the game will be Shira Oka: Second Chances. [ Shira Oka website ]

Although ren’ai games have been available in Japanese since the ’80s, the selection of high-quality games for English speakers has been relatively bleak so far. Okashi Studios seeks to change this by creating an original ren’ai game written natively in English.

More detailed information about the game will become available as it nears completion.

Public speaking engagements

Throughout the year, we travel to conventions across the country to participate in panels about ren’ai games and to meet with fans of these games. Our main panel is a beginner’s guide to ren’ai games, which gives an overview to the genre, shows some demos and artwork from some well-known titles, and highlights the options available for non-Japanese speakers.

Contact us if there is an event in your area in need of a speaker about ren’ai games, anime/manga, or any related topics!
