Anamanaguchi has ‘too goddamn many’ browser tabs open right now

The Verge profiles Anamanaguchi, the chiptune-rooted band known for Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game and a Hatsune Miku collaboration that reached Fortnite. Their 2025 album Anyway moves toward fuzzy indie rock, written at the American Football house while retaining the band’s internet-native sensibility.

Anamanaguchi’s evolution shows how artists born from gaming culture can expand beyond niche soundtracks without abandoning their core audience. The shift also reflects a broader trend of online-first musicians blending scene nostalgia, pop collaboration, and traditional indie credibility.
