Geek culture has long progressed past the stage of fringe. What used to be niche interests, like anime, gaming, collectibles, or cosplay, have become a huge part of mainstream entertainment and internet culture. With comic conventions and massive fan communities online, it’s clear that being a geek is something to be proud of.
Anime and gaming have always been two sides of the same coin, but in Singapore, they blend in a way that shapes pop culture, events, and fan communities. Whether it’s anime-inspired video games, gaming-themed anime, or fans who are equally obsessed with both, the crossover is undeniable. If you’ve ever found yourself binging an anime and then immediately jumping into a game based on it—or vice versa—you’re not alone. Let’s dive into how these two worlds collide in Singapore’s vibrant pop culture scene.
Collecting is a pastime for many, as well as a way to express passion, and even make long-term investments. Collectibles can come in many forms, including rare trading cards, vintage toys, or autographed memorabilia. These items can carry a unique story and even emotional connection. Some collectibles appreciate significantly over time, making them not just sentimental treasures but also valuable assets.
MyRepublic, an award-winning fibre broadband service provider in Singapore, has launched Geek Insurance, a first-of-its-kind insurance product designed specifically for hobbyists, gamers, and collectors. This initiative, developed in collaboration with HL Assurance, addresses the growing demand for specialised protection of high-value collectibles and gaming equipment.

MyRepublic, one of Asia-Pacific’s leading digital-first telcos, announced the launch of Pocket Rocket Adventures, an industry-first initiative that introduces unique gamification mechanics into the customer experience journey for their broadband and mobile subscribers. The game, accessible via the MyRepublic mobile app available from April, marks a significant step in the company’s broader strategy to drive engagement, loyalty, and long-term customer value through innovative, non-traditional channels.
Cosplay has always been about creativity, self-expression, and, let’s be honest, a lot of glue gun burns. But in recent years, cosplay has taken an exciting digital turn. With virtual spaces, AI-generated costumes, and digital avatars, bringing your favourite characters to life no longer requires hours of sewing or an overflowing prop closet.
A geek-friendly setup is more than just high-tech gadgets. It’s about creating an environment that optimises efficiency, aesthetics, and user experience. Whether you’re an avid gamer, a dedicated collector, or simply a tech enthusiast, the right devices can transform your workspace into a high-tech command center, a relaxation zone, or an immersive entertainment hub. From immersive displays to smart lighting, check out these must-have gadgets that every geek should consider for the ultimate setup.
The world of esports has rapidly grown into a billion-dollar industry, attracting players, sponsors, and fans from all over the globe. Despite its expansion, esports remains a male-dominated space. However, women in esports are breaking barriers, proving their skills, and making history in the competitive gaming arena. This International Women’s Day, we celebrate the achievements and resilience of female gamers who are shaping the future of esports.
Collecting is a passion for many, but for some, it’s also a high-stakes investment. From rare comic books to vintage cards and historical artefacts, certain collectibles have fetched astonishing prices. Here are some of the 10 most expensive collectibles ever sold, and their jaw-dropping price tags.
