Finanime is a family business founded in October 2016 that aims to contribute to bringing the Japanese-origin otaku culture to Finland.
At the end of 2019, Finanime's online shop started to grow at a tremendous pace and we have always strived above all to meet our subscribers' expectations - we will continue to be worthy of their trust and keep our service level high. We will therefore keep a close eye on the growth of the company so as not to "take too big a bite at once".
In addition, as a result of long-term work (which began even before the actual establishment), we have succeeded in creating a network of partners in Japan, and we offer this network to our customers.
Warm welcome!

Mira
Mira is a Finnish, traditional brisk young woman originally from the countryside. In general, Mira is a bit shy and timid, especially with new people, but very excited when she gets excited and especially with her friends. Not quite an introvert, but if you choose to stay, Mira will always prefer to go home under a nap to read or watch anime while others go out to party in the city. Owns a game console, but in his own words “I just bought it as a movie player, I don’t play much of it” - however, met Hitom online one night when they both happened to hit the same group several times during the evening.

Hitomi
Hitomi is an energetic and urban Japanese young woman who grew up in the fluorescent lights of Tokyo. As an incurable otakuna, Akihabara is practically Hitom's second home, Akiba's arcades and shops he feels like his own pockets. Hitomi also gets to know new people easily and maybe it was this trait that made her quick friendship with Mira! Hitomi enjoys spending the evening in Izakaya with his friends, but most of the time he is needed in the digital world - and Hitomi never leaves his friends or guild in short supply. Also does model & promotional gigs in addition to her studies. The real problem, however, is choosing the next figure to acquire…!

Aki
Aki lives in a small cottage in the countryside, far from the hustle and bustle of the city, but he is not a farmer - it's more about the space and lack of street lights that he feels in the city. His hobby garden is full of different herbs, which he uses both in cooking and in his other hobby of brewing tea. Tea is one of his greatest passions, and he likes to relax daily with a steaming cup.
Aki is a teacher by profession, but his real passion lies in art! Little do his students know that the understated teacher creates acclaimed shoujo doujins behind a pseudonym, bringing heart-wrenching stories and emotional scenes to life through his soft, beautiful drawing style.
Aki met Mira and Hitomi by chance in Tokyo, on the subway on his way to Comiket - it was quite easy to spot Aki lost at the station with the event brochure... And being an outgoing Hitomi was quick to offer help - through his new friends and encouragement from Comiket, Aki has found more courage to try to bring himself and his stories to the world
Age: 27 years
Hobbies: Reading manga, tending to his hobby garden, photograpy
Citation: "There is room in the silence for stories that the world is in a hurry to forget."
