Rumour has it that another long/well established anime studio has gone bankrupt but hasn't officially announced it yet because they still have a show that is currently airing.
Some are speculating that it may be Artland who are yet to finish Sin: Nanatsu no Taizai.
>they still have a show that is currently airing. Could be MAPPA too
Zachary Roberts
MAPPA is hardly long established.
Robert Ross
Which studio has an anime airing this season, doesn't have an anime airing in the next few seasons, and is well-established?
Isaiah Clark
You also have: Seven Mortal Sins (Artland) Atom: The Beginning (OLM) Re:Creators (Troyca) Sagrada Reset (david production) Sakura Quest (PA WORKS)
But most of those seem either implausible or haven't been around long enough.
Christopher Bell
Out of all of these only Artland and David fits, and I doubt David would go Bankrupt.
Aiden Nguyen
Please no ;_;
Hudson Ortiz
why?
Nathan Perry
David only really started in 2007 so they are comparatively recent compared to many companies too.
Although looking at the credits for Sin: Nanatsu no Taizai there is another studio credited TNK. They have been around since 2000 and have done shows like Highschool DxD and School Days.
Thomas Cruz
David isn't long established at all, their first series was from 2009
Andrew Thompson

Parker Powell
>have done shows like Highschool DxD and School Days. Please let it be them. they deserve to go bankcrupt
I like Sin, and I want to see it end. I even order the BDs.
Robert Howard
>Another season of Mushishi never
The list of their works is pretty sad, only Mushishi being worth anything
Juan Hall
meant for
Justin Moore
Probably a jojofag.If David goes under the rest of JoJo will never be animated.
Brody Morales
No mention of the studio.
Jaxson James
Even author shitted on the anime so he will probably beg for another studio to continue.
Henry Hall
P.A. Works got the deal with Cygames in 2018 (Uma Musume) so it's totally out from being bankrupt.
Evan Davis
I though you were going to be worried about Mushishi.
They worked on LoGH and SDF Macross too although they weren't the main studio on those.
Liam Anderson
Didn't Emon just inject money on Artland not six months ago?
Brayden Peterson
Good. Less fujoshit and shonenshit .
Owen Walker
>Troyca They're Aniplex's slave. I doubt they will go bankrupt this fast >david production Isn't they got a bunch of money from Jojo? >PA WORKS Pretty unlikely they go bankrupt
Luke Johnson
Who cares about Mushishi?
Nolan Thomas
>Isn't they got a bunch of money from Jojo? Pretty sure david just gets paid for being contracted, not what happens after
Yes they did get investment from Emon but perhaps it wasn't enough or they gave up on keeping it alive?
Connor Hall
It can only be Artland.
Jose Lewis
people with taste
Jackson Perry
I suppose it could be a studio that does daytime animation that nobody would even consider? But that seems unlikely too.
Leo Butler
MAPPA had two massive hits last year.
Andrew Perez
Maybe Mushishi would get picked up by another studio anyway. It does quite well in sales.
Alexander Thomas
OLM shouldn't even be considered. They're doing fine animating kids shows funded by toy companies.
Austin Turner
Sin: Nanatsu no Taizai has had numerous "production issues" throughout this season, which has resulted in a seiyuu discussion episode (4.5) and just recently a clip show of lewd stuff that happened in the series. (10.5) Given the reaction on Japanese blogs, and the fact that some sourced industry animators have hinted at who it is, it's pretty much looking like Artland. Sin was supposed to air in Summer 2016, by the way. I wouldn't be surprised if this adaptation killed the studio because the company that owns the brand is fucking terrible.
Sebastian Fisher
Not to mention their parent company Imagica is huge.
Can't read japanese but are they implying show that is airing right now or will air this summer? In this case Gonzo also fits.
Tyler Watson
The manga has been completely adapted though, so there wouldn't be a new Mushishi season anyway.
Jackson Bell
Then nothing of value was lost.
Jace Russell
According to the tweets being cited the reason they are speculating that the reason this bankruptcy hasn't been announced yet it that the studio in question has a series broadcasting currently. They say maybe they will announce it officially when they finish like GANGSTA and Manglobe. So the implication is that the show would be one from Spring that is yet to finish.
Carter Powell
It's Troyca. Re:Infodump is a big flop, they must have spent at least $5 million on it, there's no way they're recouping that cost.
Ryan Collins
They aren't even on the production committee. It is funded by Shogakukan, Aniplex and ABC Animation. The only way they are going to have lost out on that is through poor management of finances, overspending budget and so on. The sales are largely irrelevant to their financial well being.
Adam Diaz
>Artland Literally who?
Benjamin Morris
That really does not mean they can not go bankrupt.
Chase Kelly
They probably won't be though given the fact that they have many upcoming projects.
Matthew Sanchez
it's trigger
Grayson White
>long established with current ongoing show from last season
Robert Gonzalez
Kill yourself fucking son of a monkey.
Eli Cooper
dude it's trigger you heard it here first
Isaiah Garcia
Too good to be true.
Robert Butler
>daytime animation What do you mean?
Zachary James
Posts like this are only considering studios that work on late night animations.
Ayden Young
I think you can cross off PA Works since they just finished building a new studio.
Owen Martinez
I'm not positive on this, but wasn't all of mushishi's source material animated between seasons 1, 2 and the OVA?
James Barnes
I do.
Daniel Carter
>OLM >Bankrupt Nice joke, m8. This kid anime studio is one of Titans in the industry. Also, see &
Tyler Jackson
>Another season of Mushishi never >He doesn't read the source material Mushishi was finished exactly like in the manga, fag.
Samuel Gray
you'll be surprised how common building new headquarters and going bankrupt often go hand in hand.
Gabriel Gomez
examples?
Connor Cruz
You can't lose money if you're making anime with tax money.
Justin Howard
like a zombie bank?
Jacob Adams
Google new building curse. When a company starts up or they're small they make do with what they got, once they experience success it's natural they'd want to move on to some 'proper' building or even god forbid, build one. That's a lot of capital you'd be tying up when maybe just some upgrades could have done the job.
