Seikunime

Seikunime is a Japanese anime production company, notable for being involved in the production of shōjo anime. The company was founded in 1994 and is the master licensee to most of its works. They were the main anime contractor for US-based Cartoon Network XD and later NickFamily Studios from 2003 to mid-2018 and have outsourced animation to animation studios such as Toei Animation and Bones.

The company exclusively focused on shōjo and kodomomuke anime until getting involved with the Sand Land anime adaptation in 2003.

DHX Media bought the company in 2014 and divested it three years later, due to DHX's acquisition of Iconix Brand Group.

Since January 2016, Seikunime has reported a loss for every fiscal year. This only worsened when DHX Media divested it. Initially projected that the company wouldn't survive past April 2019 due to the rise of studios having master licenses (such as Venga and Studio Aura), it was announced that Seikunime would be sold. Venga, Typewriter Japan, and Axiom bought the company in November 2018.
