ANIME

What this record means

The record shows that the mark ANIME, filed by Purr Inc. (a California corporation), is no longer live – it was abandoned on Oct 4 2022 after the applicant failed to respond to an Office action, and the USPTO lists the status as “Dead · Refused.” The application covered only class 016, describing pop‑crafts, collectible designs, printed merchandise, complicated printed matters, artists’ materials, adhesive materials and a customization service, so a similar name would be of greatest concern if used on any of those paper‑goods or printed‑matter products. The record does not give Purr Inc. control over every possible use of the word ANIME in other fields. Because the registration was on the Principal Register, there is no supplemental‑register sequence to note. The latest meaningful event is the abandonment notice on Oct 4 2022, and the supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a comparable name for similar paper‑goods or printed‑matter offerings.
