Shin-Ei Animation Co., Ltd. (Japanese :シンエイ動画株式会社 ,Hepburn :Shīn'eī Dōga Kabushiki-gaisha ) is a Japaneseanimation studio owned byTV Asahi and founded inTokyo in 1965 asA Production by Daikichirō Kusube, who was previously an animator forToei Animation .
Logo used from 1976 to 2021. Shin-Ei Animation's history begins in December 1965 asA Production (Aプロダクション ,Ei Purodakshon ) [ 1] by Daikichirō Kusube who was then a former animator atToei Animation .
Disgruntled by the rigid hierarchy prevalent in Toei Animation he, and a couple of his colleagues, formedA Production , and immediately got into a partnership with the newly-formedTokyo Movie , under the condition that Kusube would remain independent.
For ten years, A Production served as Tokyo Movie's primary subcontractor for animation as well as co-production.
In 1976, after Tokyo Movie foundedTelecom Animation Film , they offered Kusube to lead the division. However, knowing that he would lose his independence, he refused, cut all ties with Tokyo Movie and restructured his company toShin-Ei Animation (シンエイ動画 ,Shin-ei Douga ) .
Shin-Ei Animation is best known as the animation studio behind two anime series,Doraemon andCrayon Shin-chan , which have aired onTV Asahi since 1979 and 1992 respectively; Shin-Ei Animation has since produced television series and films of the two anime series.
In 2010,TV Asahi had acquired the animation studio.[ 2]
In April 2017,SynergySP became a subsidiary of the company.[ 3]
Works currently airing on Japanese television are inbold .
