Studio Gokumi Co., Ltd. (Japanese: 株式会社Studio五組, Hepburn: Kabushiki-gaisha Sutajio Gokumi) is a Japanese animation studio established by former Gonzo members.[3]
History
[edit]Studio Gokumi, literally meaning "Studio Group 5", was founded in May 2010 after members of Gonzo's Studio Number 5 left the company to start one of their own. Studio Number 5 was responsible at Gonzo for the anime series Strike Witches and Saki.[3][4]
Studio Gokumi's first production was an original video animation for Koe de Oshigoto! at the end of 2010. In spring 2011, A Channel debuted as the first anime television series for the studio. Production of Saki was taken over by Studio Gokumi for the Saki: Achiga-hen season, which aired from April 9 to July 2, 2012.
