CREATIVITY, BUSINESS, AND DECISIONS UNDER PRESSURE

a competitive worker-placement and business-management game in which each player runs their own anime studio. Use your staff's abilities to perform actions, develop new projects and prepare their release. Organising your work well will be just as important as having a good story.

Recruit artists, writers, and other talented professionals. Each member of your studio unlocks unique actions, and you’ll need to combine their strengths and make every workday count.

Action, fantasy, horror, science fiction, or slice of life: discover which genres and combinations are capturing audiences and choose whether to follow the latest trends or gamble on creating the next cult anime.

Jisogi: Anime Studio Tycoon

BUILD YOUR TEAM

Expand your team with motivated professionals and assign each one the task they excel at. Managing finances, keeping your staff happy and staying on top of trends will make all the difference in building a team that grows your audience.

CREATE AN ORIGINAL STORY

Blend a setting, a storyline, and an unexpected twist to craft a one-of-a-kind anime. Refine its genres and enhance its production quality before the premiere.

CAPTIVATE THE AUDIENCE

Measure your production against the latest trends, build hype around your release, and discover whether you’ve created a global hit... or a legendary cult classic.

What makes the game special:

RUNNING A STUDIO HAS NEVER BEEN SO EXCITING

A true tycoon experience. You won't just create stories: you'll need to manage staff, money, debt, interest and production schedules

Each member of your team has unique skills. Combine their strengths, create powerful synergies, and get the most out of every professional in your studio.

Create your own anime, combining different settings, plots and twists to produce completely different titles in every game.

The market and its trends shift throughout the game. A perfect combination of genres now may have lost its appeal by the time it is released… but it could still become a cult anime with special bonuses.

Invest in your projects, forge valuable connections, and build anticipation, but keep your finances under control. Sometimes taking on debt will be the only way to transform an ambitious production into a major success.

A unique visual identity crafted by Eisuke Gou, Senkawa Teien, and other artists from the anime world, showcasing a variety of styles that capture the diversity of genres and productions.
