Madhouse has created and helped produce many well-known shows,OVAs and films, starting with TVanime seriesAce o Nerae!

Unlike other studios founded at this time such asAIC andJ.C.Staff, their strength was and is primarily in TV shows and theatrical features. Expanding from the initial Mushi Pro staff, Madhouse recruited important directors such asMorio Asaka,Masayuki Kojima, andSatoshi Kon during the 1990s. Their staff roster expanded in the 2000s to includeMamoru Hosoda,Takeshi Koike, andMitsuo Iso, as well as many younger television directors.

The studio often collaborates with knownmanga artists, includingNaoki Urasawa andClamp. Madhouse produced adaptations of Urasawa'sYawara!,Master Keaton, andMonster, with Masayuki Kojima helming the latter two. The company has animated a number of CLAMP's titles, includingTokyo Babylon, two versions ofX (a theatrical movie and a TV series),Cardcaptor Sakura and its sequelClear Card, andChobits. In the 2000s and 2010s, Madhouse and its subsidiaries, Madbox Co., Ltd and South Korea-basedDR Movie, animated for various companies, includingImagi Animation Studios,Warner Bros. Animation,Marvel Animation,Studio Ghibli,TMS Entertainment,Production I.G,Sunrise,Pierrot,DNA Productions,Hanna-Barbera,Film Roman,Nickelodeon Animation Studios,Capcom, andHBO, among others.
