Every story starts somewhere. Every milestone deserves to be remembered.
Station Hikari is an independent audio-fiction network built around original stories, the performers and collaborators who bring them to life, and the listeners who travel with us. This page keeps a living record of the moments that have helped our little station grow.
Recognition & features
Way of the Jaded Fist on the ElevenLabs Showcase
Our flagship wuxia fantasy drama has a dedicated listing on the official ElevenLabs Showcase, credited to creator Desmond Childs. The listing highlights the project as an audio storytelling use of ElevenLabs technology. This is a showcase listing, not an award or an endorsement of every production decision.
Note: The showcase profile describes an earlier era of the project, before the Station Hikari network identity was fully established.
Milestones worth celebrating
4,000 listens
On October 26, 2026, we celebrated reaching 4,000 listens. That milestone belongs to every person who gave an episode a chance, shared a link, or came back for another story.
Three seasons of Way of the Jaded Fist
What began as a small storytelling experiment has grown into an ongoing, three-season drama. The Season Three episode archive marks another chapter in the Himalaya Rift.
A complete home for our first 21 episodes
In July 2026, we finished giving all 21 episodes from the first two seasons their own website landing pages, making the series easier to explore and revisit. Read the original update.
More places to find the station
On October 31, 2026, we announced wider podcast availability and claimed our Podchaser listing, continuing the work of making the shows easier to discover. Read the distribution update.
Finishing the stories we begin
In November 2026, Weirdos I Love was formally recognized within our own catalog as a completed, two-episode OVA. Sometimes an accomplishment is simply giving a story the ending it deserves. Read the announcement.
More stories, more collaborators
Station Hikari continues to expand beyond its flagship, with projects such as Red Letter Route, The Bard and the Biwa, King’s Java and Tales from the Rift. The credit for that work is shared with the writers, actors, narrators, technical collaborators and supporters who make each production possible. Explore our shows.
Press & community recognition
This section is reserved for confirmed independent reviews, interviews, editorial features, festival selections, awards and other third-party mentions. We’ll add them when they happen and link directly to the original source. Sending a pitch or submitting an application does not count as recognition.
