From its humble origins as a Houston-based collective of Audi enthusiasts with a passion for Itasha -- an automotive subculture with a focus on unabashed anime decals, vibrant color schemes and Japanese pop-culture aesthetics -- Senpai Squad has blossomed into one of the leading lifestyle brands at the intersection of automotive, anime and gaming culture. The group has made a name for itself hosting groundbreaking events ranging from Itasha meetups to cosplay raves and Comic-Con afterparties, delivering unparalleled experiences and collaborating with major brands and figures across industries, including renowned VTuber Ironmouse -- the biggest English-language Vtuber on Twitch, who briefly sported the highest number of paid subscribers on the entire platform -- and her talent company VShojo.
