Let's get GENKI! We are the home org for Atenean otakus!
Toushin (also known as Touhou no Shinju or Pearl of the Orient) is an independent student organization dedicated to promoting Japanese art, pop, and contemporary culture. We are based in the Ateneo de Manila University and a member of the League of Independent Organizations (LIONS).
We take part and pride in appreciating and promoting Japanese pop culture in its various forms; whether that be anime, manga, cosplay, music, art, technology, and many more. The various stories that they tell, the characters that gain our interest and make us fall in love, as well as different worlds where we could explore and be different, but the same; all of these are just the tip of the iceberg. But more importantly, we're a ragtag family of individuals who come together to form an open space to freely talk about Japanese pop culture, as well as share ideas, opinions, celebrations, and creations about it.
