{{nihongo|'''Bandai Namco Filmworks Inc.'''|株式会社バンダイナムコフィルムワークス|[[Kabushiki gaisha]] Bandai Namuko Firumuwākusu|lead=yes}}, formerly and still famously known as '''Sunrise Inc.''', is a Japanese entertainment company owned by [[Bandai Namco Holdings]] with its business focused on production, planning, and management of [[anime]]. It was founded in September 1972 by former [[Mushi Production]] staff.
Anime created by Sunrise that have won the [[Animage]] Anime Grand Prix prize are ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam]]'' in 1979 and the first half of 1980, ''[[Space Runaway Ideon]]'' in the second half of 1980, ''[[Crusher Joe]]'' (co-production with [[Studio Nue]]) in 1983, ''[[Dirty Pair]]'' in 1985, ''[[Future GPX Cyber Formula]]'' in 1991, ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam SEED|Gundam SEED]]'' in 2002, ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny|Gundam SEED Destiny]]'' in 2004 and 2005, ''[[Code Geass|Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion]]'' in 2006 and 2007 and ''[[Code Geass|Code Geass R2]]'' in 2008.


==History==
==History==
According to an interview with members of Sunrise the studio was founded by former members of [[Mushi Production]] in 1972, under the name {{nihongo|'''Sunrise Studio, Limited'''|有限会社サンライズスタジオ|Yugen-kaisha Sanraizu Sutajio}}. Rather than having production of anime revolve around a single creator, as was the case for Mushi, which was headed by [[Osamu Tezuka]], Sunrise decided that production should focus around the producers, a strategy that continues to this date. The market for mainstream anime, such as manga adaptations, sports shows, and adaptations of popular children's stories, was dominated by existing company, and as such, Sunrise decided to focus on robot anime, which were known to be more difficult to animate, but could be used as promotion to sell toys. Sunrise's specialization on robot anime continues to this date.<ref>http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/video/17634/#play-1</ref>
According to an interview with Sunrise members, the studio was founded by former members of [[Mushi Production]] in 1972 as {{nihongo|Sunrise Studio, Limited|有限会社サンライズスタジオ|Yugen-kaisha Sanraizu Sutajio}}. Rather than having anime production revolve around a single creator (like Mushi, headed by [[Osamu Tezuka]]), Sunrise decided that production should focus on the producers. The market for mainstream anime (such as manga adaptations, sports shows, and adaptations of popular children's stories) was already dominated by existing companies, so Sunrise decided to focus on robot (mecha) anime, known to be more difficult to animate but which could be used to sell toys.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/video/17634/#play-1|title=ANNtv Inside Sunrise|work=Anime News Network|date=17 May 2011|access-date=5 June 2016}}</ref>

==International distribution==
===2000–2004===
Most anime produced by Sunrise and Bandai and licensed by Bandai Visual in Japan was licensed and distributed in the United States by [[Bandai Entertainment]] and in Europe by [[Beez Entertainment]], but both companies shut down in 2012 after Bandai Entertainment's restructuring. In North America, distributors such as [[Funimation]], [[Viz Media]], [[Sentai Filmworks]], [[Nippon Ichi Software|NIS America]] and [[Aniplex of America]], as well as Sunrise USA, have licensed Sunrise properties. In Europe, Anime Limited and [[Manga Entertainment]] (in the UK) and [[Kazé]] (in France) have begun to distribute titles distributed by Beez and other unreleased Sunrise productions. In Australia, Sunrise productions are licensed and distributed by [[Madman Entertainment]].

==International distribution==
In the past, any anime that was originally produced by Sunrise, Inc. and Bandai and licensed by Bandai Visual in Japan was licensed and distributed in the United States by [[Bandai Entertainment]] and in Europe by [[Beez Entertainment]]. However, as of 2012, both companies have shut down. In the North American regions, distributors such as [[Funimation]], [[Viz Media]], [[Section23 Films#Sentai Filmworks|Sentai Filmworks]] and [[Nippon Ichi Software|NIS America]] have licensed Sunrise properties, as well as some Sunrise/[[Aniplex]] properties by [[Aniplex of America]]. In Europe, companies such as Anime Limited and [[Manga Entertainment]] in the UK and [[Kazé]] in France have begun to rescue former titles once distributed by Beez as well as other Sunrise titles. In Australia, like most anime that is released there, Sunrise productions are released by [[Madman Entertainment]]. At Anime Boston 2013, Sunrise confirmed that they themselves will begin licensing anime in North America, and are in talks with companies like Sentai, Funimation, and Viz to distribute their titles onto DVD and Blu-ray.<ref>{{cite web|title=Funimation, Sentai in Talks Over Former Bandai Titles|url=http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2013-05-25/funimation-sentai-in-talks-over-former-bandai-entertainment-titles|publisher=Anime News Network|accessdate=24 June 2013}}</ref> In addition, [[Right Stuf Inc.|Right Stuf]] has signed a deal to distribute and re-release ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn]]'' on DVD in North America.<ref>{{cite web|title=Right Stuf to Release Gundam UC on DVD|url=http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2013-05-14/right-stuf-to-release-gundam-uc-anime-series-on-dvd|publisher=Anime News Network|accessdate=24 June 2013}}</ref> In 2014, the deal expanded towards releasing all of the Gundam that had been previously licensed by Bandai Entertainment (''[[Mobile Suit Gundam]]'', ''[[Turn A Gundam]]''), as well as several works that have not been released in North America (''[[Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ]]''), beginning in 2015.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2014-10-11/sunrise-partners-with-right-stuf-to-release-gundam-franchise-stateside/.79830|title=Sunrise Partners with Right Stuf to Release Gundam Franchise Stateside|publisher= Anime News Network|date=2014-10-11|accessdate=2014-10-12}}</ref>

Bandai Namco Filmworks Inc. (Japanese: 株式会社バンダイナムコフィルムワークス, Hepburn: Kabushiki gaisha Bandai Namuko Firumuwākusu), formerly and still famously known as Sunrise Inc., is a Japanese entertainment company owned by Bandai Namco Holdings with its business focused on production, planning, and management of anime. It was founded in September 1972 by former Mushi Production staff.

History

[edit]

According to an interview with Sunrise members, the studio was founded by former members of Mushi Production in 1972 as Sunrise Studio, Limited (有限会社サンライズスタジオ, Yugen-kaisha Sanraizu Sutajio). Rather than having anime production revolve around a single creator (like Mushi, headed by Osamu Tezuka), Sunrise decided that production should focus on the producers. The market for mainstream anime (such as manga adaptations, sports shows, and adaptations of popular children's stories) was already dominated by existing companies, so Sunrise decided to focus on robot (mecha) anime, known to be more difficult to animate but which could be used to sell toys.[4]

Sunrise has been involved in many popular and acclaimed anime television series, including Mobile Suit Gundam (and its spin-offs and sequels since 1979), the Magic God Hero Legend Wataru series (1988–1997), the Brave (1990–1997) and Eldran series (1991–1993), both of which were co-produced with Takara Tomy, and the Crest of the Stars series (1999–2001). They produced the apocalyptic Space Runaway Ideon in 1980.

The company have co-produced a number of series with Toei Company, including Majokko Tickle (1978), the Robot Romance Trilogy (Combattler V (1976), Voltes V (1977), Tōshō Daimos (1978)), Daltanious (1979), and Cyborg 009 (1979). Sunrise is well known for their mecha anime series (including Gundam), such as Invincible Steel Man Daitarn 3 (1978), Fang of the Sun Dougram (1981), the Armored Trooper Votoms and Aura Battler Dunbine series (1983), Blue Comet SPT Layzner (1985), Patlabor (1989), The Vision of Escaflowne (1996), The Big O (1999/2003), Overman King Gainer (2002), Zegapain (2007), Code Geass (2006/2008), Tiger & Bunny (2011), and Valvrave the Liberator (2013), and worked with Tsuburaya Productions to animate The Ultraman (1979).

In February 1994, Sunrise Inc. became part of the Bandai Group.[5]

On April 1, 2022, Bandai Namco Holdings adopted a new logo that had been initially revealed in October 2021, and with it, a major organization shuffle occurred, resulting in Sunrise subsuming the visual arts division of Bandai Namco Arts, which was dissolved that same day. Following this, the company has adopted the same logo as its parent, and adopted the name of Bandai Namco Filmworks.[6] Its music division, Sunrise Music, has similarly subsumed Bandai Namco Arts' music operations, including Lantis, and changed its name to Bandai Namco Music Live.[7] The Sunrise name has been kept as one of the major brands of the company as of August 2023.[8]

On March 1, 2024, Bandai Namco Filmworks announced the acquisition of anime studio Eight Bit, making it a wholly owned subsidiary.[9][10]

Sunrise

[edit]
Logo for the Sunrise brand, used since late 1996. It was also used as a corporate logo until 2022.

Sunrise (サンライズ, Sanraizu), the trade name of the company's IP Production Group division, is an animation studio founded in September 1972 and is based in Ogikubo, Tokyo.[11] Its former names were also Soeisha, Sunrise Studio and Nippon Sunrise.[12]

The studio is renowned for critically praised and popular original anime series such as Gundam, Cowboy Bebop, Space Runaway Ideon, Armored Trooper Votoms, Magic God Hero Legend Wataru, Yoroiden Samurai Troopers, Future GPX Cyber Formula, Crush Gear Turbo, The Vision of Escaflowne, Love Live!, Witch Hunter Robin, My-HiME, My-Otome, Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion, Tiger & Bunny, and Cross Ange: Rondo of Angel and Dragon, as well as its numerous adaptations of acclaimed light novels including Crest of the Stars, Dirty Pair, Horizon in the Middle of Nowhere and Accel World, and manga such as City Hunter, Inuyasha, Yashahime, Outlaw Star, Angel Links, Yakitate!! Japan, Planetes, Sgt. Frog, Gin Tama, and Kekkaishi. Their productions usually feature fluid animation and action sequences and many fans refer to the quality of their work as "Sunrise Smooth".

Most of their work are original titles created in-house by their creative staff under a collective pseudonym, Hajime Yatate. They also operated a defunct video-game studio, Sunrise Interactive. Sunrise launched a light-novel publisher, Yatate Bunko Imprint, on September 30, 2016, to publish original titles and supplement their existing franchises with new materials.[13] Anime created by Sunrise which have won the Animage Anime Grand Prix are Mobile Suit Gundam in 1979 and the first half of 1980, Space Runaway Ideon in the second half of 1980, Crusher Joe (a co-production with Studio Nue) in 1983, Dirty Pair in 1985, Future GPX Cyber Formula in 1991, Gundam SEED in 2002, Gundam SEED Destiny in 2004 and 2005, Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion in 2006 and 2007 and Code Geass R2 in 2008, making Sunrise the studio which won the largest number of Animage Awards.

International distribution

[edit]

Most anime produced by Sunrise and Bandai and licensed by Bandai Visual in Japan was licensed and distributed in the United States by Bandai Entertainment and in Europe by Beez Entertainment, but both companies shut down in 2012 after Bandai Entertainment's restructuring. In North America, distributors such as Funimation, Viz Media, Sentai Filmworks, NIS America and Aniplex of America, as well as Sunrise USA, have licensed Sunrise properties. In Europe, Anime Limited and Manga Entertainment (in the UK) and Kazé (in France) have begun to distribute titles distributed by Beez and other unreleased Sunrise productions. In Australia, Sunrise productions are licensed and distributed by Madman Entertainment. At Anime Boston 2013, Sunrise confirmed that they would begin licensing anime in North America and were negotiating with Sentai, Funimation, and Viz to distribute their titles on DVD and Blu-ray.[20] Right Stuf agreed to distribute and re-release Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn on DVD in North America.[21] In 2014 the deal expanded, releasing the Gundam previously licensed by Bandai Entertainment (Mobile Suit Gundam, Turn A Gundam) and several works not released in North America (including Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ) in 2015.[22]
