2024, 2025

"Chibi Godzilla Raids Again" is a TV anime series with episodes running 2 minutes and 40 seconds, broadcast every Wednesday on TV Tokyo’s "Oha Suta." Season 2 began in April 2024 and is still airing (as of March 2025, 65 episodes are planned). Billed as "the latest entry in the Godzilla series!", it presents a fast-paced, character-driven comedy that is quite different from the traditional Godzilla films. The star-studded voice cast, featuring Jun Fukuyama, Yusuke Kobayashi, Takuya Eguchi, Rie Takahashi, Hiro Shimono, Subaru Kimura, Mamoru Miyano, and others, has also drawn attention. In addition to the TV anime, the series has also been shown in theaters, including countdown movies and etiquette movies at TOHO Cinemas nationwide.

Maison Handers

2021
Only Image
A sound drama (+ video) series distributed on Mixbox and other platforms starting in April 2021. 50 episodes in total. An audio-visual content series that displays dialogue as captions alongside illustrations, making it “fun to watch with handsome visuals” and “fun to listen to with great voice acting.” In an era when the boundary between professionals and amateurs in creative work has blurred on YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, and elsewhere, we wanted to deliver stories that feel true to life from the creators themselves. A share-house story about six creators. Yuuri Orikawa (cv. Shugo Nakamura), an up-and-coming voice actor, ends up moving into “Maison Handa-s,” a shared house where creators gather, after a chance encounter. The cool composer Shinobu Minegishi (cv. Toshiki Masuda). The brash streamer Haruki Kagaya (cv. Makoto Furukawa). The timid animator Akito Shinomori (cv. Kotaro Nishiyama). The sharp-tongued screenwriter Kaoru Gunji (cv. Soma Saito). And the owner, Masamune Sayama (cv. Takuya Eguchi), who seems to have a few tricks up his sleeve. Half a dozen ... the half of twelve. The six lives move forward, intertwined with one another.

Something you’d say at an anime studio?

2021
00:02:08
A conversational animated series unfolding on YouTube. The theme is casual everyday conversations between two characters who work at an anime studio. Unlike the TV anime we usually produce, the story is looser, the cast is more relaxed, and with added on-screen text and other elements, it is a more “hobbyist” and “YouTube-like” work. Even so, it also includes a few touches unique to an animation studio, such as same-trace animation—a technique in which a character’s hair or fur trembles and moves.
