TMS Entertainment
, formerly known as also known as Tokyo Movie or TMS-Kyokuchi, is a Japanese animation studio, founded in October 1946. TMS is one of the oldest and most prominent anime studios in Japan; it has produced numerous animated series airing in France, the United States, Italy and elsewhere. The company currently uses "TMS Entertainment, Ltd." as its corporate name. The company also has a fully owned subsidiary, Telecom Animation Film (TAF), which often co-animates shows with TMS.
==History==
The company was founded as in 1964 by Yutaka Fujioka, after his previous studio, ''Tokyo Ningyo Cinema'' failed. The first production of the studio was an animated adaptation of Osamu Tezuka's "Big X". A year later, Daikichirō Kusube, Osamu Kobayashi and Tsutomu Shibayama formed a unit called A Production, where most of Tokyo Movie's animation productions would be made, as TM itself had little animators. Among the animators that were employed at A Production were Yasuo Otsuka, Osamu Dezaki, and Studio Ghibli co-founders Isao Takahata and Hayao Miyazaki. In 1972, Madhouse was established using the finances of Fujioka, and co-produced its earliest series with Tokyo Movie. In 1976, due to a decrease in animated TV series, Tokyo Movie was shut down, and A Production was spun off into Shin-Ei Animation (''shin'' meaning ''new'' in Japanese). In 1977, Fujioka reformatted Tokyo Movie into Tokyo Movie Shinsha (literally ''New Tokyo Movie Company''). Its first production was Lupin the Third Part II, which debuted with mass popularity. The movie adaptation The Mystery of Mamo was the first feature-length movie produced in the studio's 13-year history. Another TMS subsidiary, Telecom Animation Film was founded in 1975, but didn't start production after Tokyo Movie was restructured. The real potential for Telecom wasn't realized until the studio produced The Castle of Cagliostro, which was Hayao Miyazaki's feature-length debut. Miyazaki remained employed at Telecom until he left to direct his second feature film, Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind. In 1980, TMS began their collaboration with Diffusion Information Communication, co-producing Ulysses 31. Throughout the 1980s and the 1990s, TMS outsourced animation to various animation companies, including DIC, Walt Disney Television Animation, Warner Bros. Animation, Marvel Films Animation, among others. The studio has been credited as a key factor for the "American animation renaissance". A notable work from TMS, Akira, is widely considered to be one of the best anime ever made. TMS struggled at the beginning of the 1990s, due to competition between Toei's Dragon Ball Z and Slam Dunk, as well as being too reliant on foreign co-productions. Sega-Kyokuichi purchased TMS in 1992 after Fujioka retired. During this period, productions by TMS was credited as TMS-Kyokuichi. Since 2000, TMS has focused on its own productions, rather than outsourcing animation internationally.
