Boutique 3DCG Studio Backed by Top Japanese AAA Game and Animation Projects

1. Company Overview

Established in 2018, the Company is a boutique studio specializing in high-end 3D computer-generated imagery (3DCG) for the global video-game and animation sectors. Leveraging collaborations with leading game publishers and film studios in Japan and overseas, it has contributed to several world-renowned AAA console titles, television commercials for blue-chip corporates, and full-length animated features. To secure long-term stability and accelerate its next phase of growth, the shareholders are considering a full sale to a strategic or financial acquirer.


2. Key Strengths

  • Proven AAA Track Record: Credited on globally recognized AAA console games and popular animation franchises.
  • Global-Ready Team: English-speaking staff with hands-on experience servicing international clients, providing an immediate springboard for cross-border expansion.

3. Selected Credentials

  • 3DCG production for a flagship AAA console title published by a leading Japanese game company
  • Full-CG animated feature commissioned by a major global streaming platform (project executed in English)
  • Cinematics for a top-selling game franchise owned by a prominent Japanese publisher
  • CG assets for television commercials of a major domestic conglomerate

4. Financial Snapshot – FY2026/03 Q1

Performance Trend

Metric FY2023–FY2025 (Actual) FY2026/03 Q1 (Apr–Jun 2025) FY2026/03 Forecast*
Revenue c. JPY 50 million p.a. JPY 17.3 million c. JPY 70 million
Operating Profit Stable, with temporary dip due to a discontinued overseas venture JPY 4.0 million c. JPY 15 million

Forecast figures are preliminary and subject to revision.

Key points

  • Revenue has remained around JPY 50 million in recent years, underpinned by a solid order book.
  • Core 3DCG operations continue to demonstrate healthy margins despite the wind-down of a non-core overseas project.
  • Strong order intake in Q1 positions the Company for meaningful year-on-year growth in FY2026/03.

5. Rationale for Sale

Current management wishes to step back from day-to-day corporate and sales responsibilities to focus on design and creative work, and therefore seeks a successor that can drive commercial expansion.


6. Transaction Structure

  • 100% share transfer contemplated (asset deal negotiable subject to buyer preferences).

7. Market Opportunity & Growth Drivers

Industry Tailwinds

The global videogame and animation markets continue to expand, with escalating demand for premium 3DCG content. The studio’s high-profile credits position it to win larger and more international mandates.

Value-Creation Levers

  • Digital & Social Marketing: Enhancing online visibility to attract additional blue-chip and overseas clients.
  • Operational Optimisation: Improved project management and resource allocation to lift profitability.

8. Background & Continuity

The studio has been built around a core team of ten full-time creators. The founding CEO, who also serves as lead artist, is open to remaining post-transaction to ensure creative continuity.


9. Additional Notes

  • Further details, including client lists and project breakdowns, will be made available upon execution of an NDA.
