Aniplex, Sony Music Entertainment’s wholly owned subsidiary for anime planning and production, announced on Wednesday that it has founded its own subsidiary company named Boundary.
The new company will focus on 3D CG animation, and will “take on a challenge of transcending the boundaries of 3D CG and cel animation.”
Aniplex’s existing subsidiaries include the anime studio A-1 Pictures, the game company Quatro A, and the North America distributor Aniplex of America.
Sony Pictures Television announced in September that it and Aniplex are consolidating three Sony-owned anime acquisition and distribution companies — Funimation based in the United States, Wakanim based in France, and Madman Anime Group based in Australia — into one joint venture.
