So sad, this is one of my fav studio. Thanks Arms for all the great anime. Hope I see Rinshin involved in new projects. I'll marathon a bunch of arms shows in their honor.

So many motherfvckers being happy in this thread, that's human nature for you.

This is what happens when you stop making more Queen's Blade! Then again, they probably didn't have the funds to produce a new one which is probably why Queen's Blade Unlimited is being done by a different studio.

Sad that we had to lose such an (in)famous studio. They gave us ART, and now they're gone. Hopefully the staff can find work elsewhere. I don't want their talents to go to waste.

It is sad, it is very sad that your most recognized anime is your awful elfen lied adaptation with the plus of have a Bad End, the rest nothing to highlight, it hurts that they had such good productive values, but their animes were so forgettables, even the ecchi of xebec it's more memorable than any of the seasons and ova of queen blade.

I like how ecchi haters are celebrating this even though a bunch of people got fucked over.


none animator in the anime industry works for money but for the love of art, salaries are miserable and conditions are regrettable, now they will have to find a better job or simply go to another studio it is not strange that they are absorbed by another

Big F. Arms made a lot of classic ecchi shows, many of which I enjoyed. I was an especially huge fan of Samurai Girls. It had a phenomenal visual style.

I always hate to see studios go, for one because these studios gave us so many memories and entertained us. The other reason is that animators, directors, writers, etc. are out of work. I wish them all the best, especially during these hard times.

I really liked Maoyuu Maou Yuusha. Hopefully we don't see more closings.

Well shit, they created some of the best hentai that I've ever seen and now they're gone. Mezzo Forte, Kite, Words Worth, Front Innocent. All classics. I even had a soft spot for "Wanna Be the Strongest in the World!"

Also, LOL, the irony in metaphorically jerking yourself off to the thought of an anime company that make hentai/ecchi closing down just because it produced jerk off material.

I did not enjoy most of their shows that I watched, but they were one of the best when it came to animating fanservice. Also I have to mention that the artstyle in Hyakka Ryouran is just gorgeous, without a doubt their best work imo.

Just wanting to clarify, but all those people saying that those of us who don't like ecchi and/or hentai are happy about people losing their jobs, i just wanted to say, that that's not true at all, at least in my case.

I'm not happy about people losing their jobs, i do wish them all the best and i don't hold any grudge or hate against them! I mean, one of them even produced the animation for one of my all time favorite anime ever!(Tegamibachi)

Also, they can always find work at another anime studio.(which they actually won't have to since they are part of Studio Pierrot and will probably go to work there afterwards, so they didn't actually lose their jobs in the first place.)

Not liked I cared anyway... Yeah I feel bad for the employees but the anime (at least the ones I watched) made by them were bottom of the barrel ecchi. And not the good kind.

Damn, how unfortunate. Literally was about to binge all of Queen's Blade and Ikkitousen.
Help the industry and buy Blu-rays and DVD's.
Noragami is the best anime ever.

Rip Arms. Had a few decent shows, and underwatched Barristers one of the few watchable shows in the lawyer/crime fighting genre.
Still want a Maoyuu s2 tho...

The studio has closed because of people who still use Japanese production illegally. May a curse be upon them.
