Anime Studio Tycoon

Anime Studio Tycoon is a strategy and business management game about building an anime production company. You start a small studio in the 1980s, take subcontract work to gain experience and reputation, and pursue contracts from production committees to create anime. As the company grows, you can produce your own series, OVAs and movies, and work toward leading the market with a movie business and distribution service.

Build your studio

You begin as a small studio and learn how the anime industry's economy works while completing subcontracts. You can move into larger offices to support more staff and build a development team.

Produce anime

You manage the anime development process and make decisions across different areas of production. With experience and a strong team, you can create anime without a production committee, bringing challenges such as securing TV slots and merchandising your show. You can base your work on your own stories or license existing manga series.

Work with the industry

Each anime has a production committee that handles different aspects of the business. You deal with merchandising and TV producers, as well as foreign distributors and manga publishers. As your company expands, you can create series, OVAs and movies, and develop your own movie and distribution services.
