Over the course of this year, the anime scene has seen tremendous transformation. It is no wonder that the number of anime fans is increasing because of new shows like “Chainsaw Man” and the surprise return of classic shows like “Bleach.” And as the number of fans grows, so does the demand for merchandise!
Here is part two (part one) of the best anime streetwear brands to buy from in 2022, not including the ones from last year’s article.
Crunchyroll is known for its large collection of anime TV shows and movies. But did you know that it has an anime clothing store as well? Moreover, it even sells anime figures and plush toys!
From Jujutsu Kaisen and My Hero Academia to Death Note and Berserk, anime fans of all ages will find something to love in this vast collection of otaku-approved clothing.
Additionally, Crunchyroll often collaborates with artists and adds an anime twist, producing unique merchandise. Check out this Lady Gaga Cyberpunk hoodie from the “CR Loves Lady Gaga” collection!
Even classic Japanese horror movie monsters like Godzilla and works by Junji Ito are up for grabs!

3. Genshstar and Genshin Impact Store
With millions of anime fans playing Genshin Impact and the game getting its own anime adaptation; the need for its merchandise has definitely increased. To meet this need, Genshstar sells clothing inspired by the popular gacha game all over the world!
This long-sleeved coat inspired by Xiao looks amazing, with its sleek black and neon green aesthetic; as well as the Mask of the Yaksha emblazoned on the back. The Chinese cloud designs combined with the large brand logos give it a modern streetwear vibe with a traditional twist.
The official Genshin Impact store sells shirts and hoodies inspired by the game as well! Even the countless memes created by the fandom are immortalized into clothing. Check out this adorable Emergency Food jacket, or show off your love for the Seven Elements with this shirt!
Both stores sell cosplay clothing, exclusive merch, and even home decorations on their respective sites!
Unique Selling Point:
Anime streetwear brands that sell Genshin Impact clothing are few with limited selections, so you have more options going to these two stores.
4. Mishka
5. Super Sick
Mishka is a streetwear brand based in NYC, and unlike the others on this list, it does not specialize in anime clothing. However, it does have anime-inspired streetwear, with its cartoony Vaporwave aesthetic and quirky Japanese culture-inspired designs.
Unique Selling Point:
More streetwear than anime, so it will do for those who want just a touch of anime in their outfits – but not too overt.
*Super Sick was mentioned on our previous list, but merits a re-mention because of its new collection of pop culture x anime clothing”
Super Sick Clothing is an anime fashion house based in the UK. With the goal of spreading positivity through anime, the fashion houses combine mainstream and otaku culture to come up with unique designs such as this shirt with Albert Einstein in Jiraiya’s clothes, or hip hop group Migos dressed as the Akatsuki.

Unique Selling Point:
It sells clothes that combine mainstream pop culture and hip hop culture with anime-inspired designs, but it also sells the classics.
6. Yujin
Yujin’s clothing ranges from cute to terrifying to subtly aesthetic, and the messiness is on purpose. The designs are made by anime fans for other anime fans to buy. From shirts with Junji Ito manga panels to anime girl sweatshirts, and even a T-shirt with a catzilla; these quirky designs are bound to make anyone smile.
This streetwear brand has Japanese aesthetics that even non-anime fans will appreciate, such as this Hannya Demon Mask hoodie or this cool neon shirt with a city pop vibe called “Emotions.”
Unique Selling Point:
Features designs created by fans for other fans, which makes the clothing authentic and raw.
7. Joom
Unlike the other entries on this list, Joom is an ecommerce platform. However, it does sell a large quantity of anime clothing, so we couldn’t exclude it! All you have to do is search “anime clothes” or the title of your favorite show. If your usual anime clothing brands haven’t released a collection based on your favorite anime, then feel free to look here!
Joom even has Saitama from One Punch Man’s famous “oppai” sweatshirt, and many other designs from the hit series.
