Company: Kitty Film 6o2h4d
Info 707271
Despite their fame as producer, the actual animation of Kitty's works was handled by several independent anime studios, some of which still exist today. Madhouse handled the final Urusei Yatsura movie, Legend of the Galactic Heroes, and Yawara!
Unfortunately, the company had suffered financial troubles from early on, which started to come to a head towards the end of the Ranma TV series in 1992. Hidenori Taga had in fact helped finance Kitty's film division by spending money from their music branch, and that year was forced to step down due to an unknown scandal, while Shigekazu Ochiai transferred to Pao House Studios (he died in 1999). Kitty continued to produce less well-known shows such as Ping Pong Club (1995) and Shinkai Densetsu Meremanoid, but their output shrank to almost nothing by the end of the century. Sunrise handled the animation duties on Inuyasha. As of 2007, the company mainly exists as a talent agency, having sold off the rights of most of their anime hits.
