Our Mission
SunsetNerdVerse is an independent pop culture media site dedicated to honest, fan-first coverage of video games, anime, manga, and film & TV. We are not a press release aggregator, every piece of content we publish reflects genuine editorial voice and authentic enthusiasm for the medium.

Where We Publish
Coverage of your title or announcement can be amplified across all of our active platforms simultaneously, reaching different audience segments wherever they are.
Who We Want to Hear From
We’re a niche publication with a specific editorial focus. Here’s who we’re most excited to partner with — and what makes a great fit for SunsetNerdVerse.

Where We Stand on AI
AI is part of modern creative work, and we’re not here to pretend otherwise. We’re happy to cover projects where AI was used as a tool. What we will not cover is work where AI is the project. Here’s the line.
AI Use We Accept
- Image generation used for concepting, placeholders, marketing assets, or supporting visuals
- Coding assistance such as code completion, debugging, refactoring, or tooling support
- Production assistance including upscaling, cleanup, localization drafts, or QA support
- Workflow and admin help like scheduling, transcription, or press material drafting
- Voice or audio tools where the performers involved consented and are credited
- Any use where a human team made the creative decisions and AI simply sped up the work
AI Use We Decline
- 100% AI-generated IPs. If no human authored the core creative work, we will not cover it
- IPs where AI accounted for more than 40% of the creation of the property you are pitching us
- AI-generated work presented as fully human-made, or AI use concealed during outreach
- AI-generated likenesses, voices, or performances used without the consent of the person involved
- AI-generated content built on another creator’s IP without permission
- Pitches that will not disclose their level of AI involvement when asked
AI use in moderation is fine. But if more than 40% of the IP you are contacting us about was created by AI, we will decline coverage. Fully AI-made IPs are declined outright. We ask all partners to be upfront about where and how much AI was used. We’d rather have an honest conversation early than discover it after publication, and transparency here will never count against you with us.
What We Will Not Accept
We’re a pop culture publication with a general audience, and we intend to keep it a place people can trust. Regardless of budget, timeline, or framing, we decline all partnerships in the following categories.

Casinos, sportsbooks, betting platforms, loot-box-style gambling services, and crypto or skin wagering.
