I love the energy in Japan. I myself am working to bring nouns to the alpine culture in Japan and I support the work that I see everyone already doing there. Would love to see more.
Pnouns and NounsDAO Japan have been incredible in their proliferation. Excited to see what they do!
Super for this!
As a side note, I agree that Nouns can be particularly impactful in Japan due to its stellar, recognizable character design and vibrant brand colors, especially if we create relatable character stories (or even generative short bios like those in the Sanrio world as a start 🥹).
Excited to see where this leads.
this group is bursting with energy and experimentation. happy to support

Strong team that already has a track record of great work. More autonomy may empower them to produce even more results

Japan has already witnessed the emergence of two outstanding organizations, pNouns and NOUNS BASE .
However, there's a concerning sign when browsing "Nouns Japan House": The NFTs of Nouns Japan House are highly centralized. This leads to an undesirable trend: a lack of transparency, where stakeholders rather than creators tend to come out on top. In rounds 1-7, this phenomenon wasn't that pronounced, and occasionally, one could spot some talented creators. However, in rounds 8-10, the past three winners were all from the same organization, accumulating the votes and securing the funds.
Two characteristics are observed in Nouns Japan House:
This is merely a well-intentioned reminder. For this prop, we abstain from voting.

japanese nouns community has been an inspiration - definitely want to see it grow
We like NounsDAO Japan which has a strong track record of doing cool stuff, and the grassroots Prop House-driven funding model here, which feels like the most aligned form of IRL proliferation for Nouns.

supportive! hope the more builders and artists in the JP community can find their way to nouns through this funding.
always felt amiyoko art brings so much grace to the nounish aesthetic <3
Reasonable ask. Growing community. Cant wait to see what comes out of these rounds~ Good luck!

This Japanese DAO is contributing expansion of Nouns in Japan and 0.5ETH for one activity seems reasonable.
i worked w the nouns dao japan community in the early days and have nothing but good things to say about my experience with them. i applaud them for taking the next step and requesting funds directly from the dao to become more independent in their decision making.
please keep us updated via updates.wtf!
The way i look at this prop is that we give Nouns JP some added autonomy. I trust them to find good use for the funds.
Nouns DAO Japan (NDJ) is the largest Nouns community in Japan. NDJ's Prop House has been a cornerstone of our growth and community engagement. However, we have noticed a decline in activity since our last round, Round-10. Consequently, this issue has been concerned many of us who see the immense potential in our local community.
One Major hurdle is the language barrier. Many Prop House events are in English, limiting the participation of our largely Japanese-speaking community.
To address this gap, we would like to kindly request your financial support to re-launch and sustain our Prop House for a period of one year. We believe this will boost Nouns DAO's brand awareness in Japan and create valuable content. We'll also look for self-funding options during this period.
Total ask: 18 ETH.
Pokemon, Hello Kitty, Anpanman, Super Mario, Dragon Ball, One Piece, Naruto, etc... Japan is home to iconic characters and boasts a rich culture of derivative works and cosply. This cibrant creative scene serves as fertile ground for talented creators.
Nouns DAO Japan (NDJ) is the largest Nouns community in Japan with approximately 3,300 members. Various creators, mainly Japanese, participate in NDJ and enjoy creating secondary Nouns works while engaging in friendly competition.
The following is a corner of the creativity from NDJ.
The beluga created by amiyoko on the left was adopted for Anniversary Art 2023.
Nouns secondary production created by KURAN. A secret base to build with friends.
Many creators gather at NDJ to create fascinating works of art!
Japanese creators have uniquely blended local culture with NounsDAO's vision, generating captivating content. However, activity has slowed since Prop House Funding ceased after Round-10.
Various communities are holding Prop House, but unfortunately, only a limited number of Japanese are able to participate in other Prop House because of their poor English skills.
It is a great loss for Nouns DAO that during this time, talented creators from the character powerhouse of Japan are leaving Nouns DAO.
Here are some of the achievements supported by NDJ's Prop House.
The baton relay is actually handed over in the real world as “Noggles = Baton". This initiative will increase loyalty to the Nouns DAO by directly connecting people who love Nouns with each other in Japan.
pNouns is an experimental project that has the potential to fundamentally change the social structure with ”real NFT” and ”real DAO”. We are going to become a member of Nouns DAO, recognized ”real DAO” and propose a project to the pooled 35 million treasury.
Ethereumnavi specializes in cutting-edge Crypto native NFT projects, Web3 development information such as Solidity, and other information around Ethereum. The platform features accessible articles on Nouns, significantly contributing to the project's expansion in Japan.
UNouns = Nouns doing United Nations. UNouns attempts to create community and governance that will access global issues, SDGs and create better world by utilizing treasury, that can be used by the community. By expanding the ecosystem, UNouns DAO aims to create better world with DAO and hornorable presence for Nouns.
In addition to the above mentioned creations, support for IRL activities and technologies was also provided.
ROI: By hosting Prop House, we will increase the engagement of talented Japanese creatives with Nouns, and this will increase the brand value of Nouns.
Sustainability: We will hold Prop House on a regular basis for 12 months to see sustainable results. After that, we will consider our own ongoing measures.
Expand community: Attract new participants to NDJ and increase credibility and awareness of Nouns DAO in Japan.
lead: Eiba
Nouns DAO Japan is considering next steps after receiving one year of assistance.
The first candidate is JPNouns.
Nouns holding auction & treasury system from "Japan" was adopted in Round-9. It is still in the planning stage, but it is a measure to spread the Nouns in Japan, separate from Prop house.
The evolution of Nouns DAO in just a year has been remarkable, and we anticipate even more transformative changes ahead. Rest assured, Nouns DAO Japan is committed to exploring the best path forward.
Thank you for your continued support.
