Megan Thee Stallion just gave her fans an update on her upcoming anime series, and they are hyped. While talking to the fans on Stationhead, the rapper made it very clear that even though she’s been busy focusing on her music, the anime series is still highly in the works. “I’m still working on it,” she assured her fans, adding, “It’s definitely on the way!”
Megan is no stranger to anime lovers; she’s been deep into it, often cosplaying as characters from JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure and Sailor Moon, among others. Her love for the medium spills into her music, too: her latest track “Otaku Hot Girl” name-drops characters from Jujutsu Kaisen.
From when she was a child watching Inuyasha to currently, she has always felt an affinity for the medium. Such chords of admiration have deeply influenced her artistic choices and public persona. She integrates anime references into music and life, and that bridge connects her with fans who share similar interests.
Creating her own anime series seems like a natural progression for Megan. She expressed earlier that she wants to merge her music with anime telling. As she is focusing on her music career now, the anime project just shows her commitment to making a certain vision come true. In it, fans may expect representation of Black culture and female empowerment—some kind of topic that deeply resonates with one’s identity and experiences.
Of course, Megan’s venture into the anime world is a challenge in itself. A musician’s tight schedule added up to the demands of anime production—it can be overwhelming at times. “It’s tough to juggle everything,” she mentioned in the fan interaction. Yet, she is determined to work on anything that will accord with her artistic vision.
Being one of the most multitalented stars in the showbiz arena, Megan is expected to do something big by her fandom. They were curious how she would translate her ideas into a cohesive anime narrative. She expressed her desire to find the right team of animators, writers, and voice actors who share her vision and passion for the project. “Collaboration is key,” she noted, underscoring effective communication as the way to bring her ideas to life.
Megan is further aware of the responsibility she has in representing Black culture with sincerity within her anime. She would like to ensure this will also be responsive to anime lovers and fans of her music. This commitment toward representation at a cultural level gives a different dimension to her work.
