Japan was once famous as a country that produced superior industrial goods.
Now, however, Japan is loved by people around the world for the pop culture produced by its youth.

Japanese pop culture, such as anime, manga, characters, J-Pop, video games and fashion, has gone beyond borders and cultures, has won popularity, and is thought of as “cool” all over the world.

Even among the constant development of scientific technology, digital communication stands out for its continued and far greater progress.

Not only primary media such as newspapers, books, music, films, TV, radio, video games and cell phones, but every form of expression throughout the world is now being digitized and distributed via the internet and electrical signals. It would not be an overstatement to say that the digital occupies every aspect of our lives.

We now live in a world where no business in any industry can exist without the digital. Within this increasingly digital environment, Japanese pop culture too is becoming digital content and expanding across the globe faster than ever before.

Learning about how to produce this content and how to make it into a business goes hand in hand with spreading trendsetting Japanese culture throughout the world.

With that in mind, we opened this school in 2005 in Akihabara, the so-called Mecca of Japanese pop culture. Our university, more than any other, contributes to the growth of Japanese creative industry.

The study of digital content that you will undertake at this university is a discipline that lies not at the outskirts of academia, but at the heart of our future world. It is our hope that Digital Hollywood University will help you tap into your potential for this future and flourish.
