Get PA works to do the backgrounds and ufotable to do the CGI and compositing and it'll be perfect.

Well I personally don't think there is a best and worst studio. Pretty much all studios have done good and bad stuff. It's really just personal preference what you like.

I personally like KyoAni and J.C Staff.

Sort of.

When I say a studio is good, I mean that they produce good animation; I don't consider the other elements when talking about a studio. That's why I can hold PA Works in such high regard even though the stuff they produce is overall quite average a lot of the time.

On the other hand, to some extent everybody works for everybody and studio staff is not exactly a constant, so the situation is always changing. Gainax, for example, produced very high quality animation on NGE and Gurren Lagann, but they're nowhere now since all the good animators (Anno, Imaishi, Yoshinari) left.

All about KyoAni.

Moe~~Moe~~Kyun.
It's natural for a person to deny he's a failure as a human being. That's why he searches for somebody who is more miserable than himself. That's why so much animosity exists on the internet. Those who aren't able to find a more miserable person, turn to the internet and call other people losers, even though they've never met. Just to make themselves feel superior. isn't that pathetic? There's a sense of security that comes from speaking badly of someone else. But that isn't true salvation. — Tatsuhiro Satou

Usually studios can give you an idea of what the animation quality will be like though even then sometimes they can surprise you. So it's not like a certain studio will always produce something good. Welcome to the NHK and Gankutsuou are two of my favourites and I'm convinced they're two of the best anime ever made, but they're made by a Gonzo which no longer exists. Well their spirit sort of exists in David Production. So perhaps David Production is my favourite studio. They're made Book of Bantorra and Jojo which are also two of my favourites, but their animation quality sucks, so I could hardly call them the best studio.

A lot of people seem to like A1. I'll admit they have some interesting stuff every now and then (Shinsekai Yori and the currently airing Aldnoah.Zero). But let's not forget that their animation sucks ass. SAO season 1 has some of the worst excuses for animation that a "high budget" anime has ever had. SHAFT is also pretty popular, except basically everything they release that isn't Madoka is pretty crap. So yeah, I can't really name a best studio. Every studio is just too hit or miss. Well mostly miss.


I'd hate shaft too if i was too lazy to read.

My personal favorite will always be Shaft,but Production I.G,P.A Works and Silver Link left me with a good impression.
KyoAni would also be a choice if they would stop using recycled faces of K-ON. I don't mind moe,but their same-face syndrome gets eventually boring.

XEBEC is fine in terms of ecchi,but their girls are kinda fat. At least Nyaruko looks good.

Hey man, don't put Denpa Onna alongside those. Please! I'll agree the rest are huge flops though even as a Shinbou fan.


Denpa Onna was overall incrediaverage to poor. Buriki's character designs being the only highlight. And even then, it's Buriki's worst work so far.

Sorry to break your fanboyism, but.

In the history of Japanse TV animation. Hyouka with its incredible production value is sitting at the highest throne alongside Nichijou. (inb4 Astro Boy 2009)

Trigger = Inferno Cop > All. Fact.

On a serious note, it has to be Bones. Brought out some of my favitoute anime with solid adaptations and good quality. Some better than others.

Shaft closing on at second due to the monogatari series.

While white fox is third due to steins;gate and AgK with some other series.

In short, Bones is luv, Bones is lyf.

Production I.G. is my favorite. Their animation quality is great. Other than them it would be Madhouse or bones. Oh yeah and fuck A-1 studios with their shitty animation. The only show that I've watched from then with decent animation was that bullshit Sword art online.

Producing I.G. handles CGI and 3D technology better than most of these anime studio's. Overall I still think Western animation beats most of these Japanese studios.

The only western "animation" is typically made entirely out of CGI, usually produced by Disney with an astronomical budget.
