Qubic Pictures is a Tokyo based production company focused on delivering original anime  content to the global streaming market. Qubic is uniquely positioned to utilize strategic relationships with top industry creators based in Japan, Europe and North America. Our mission is to create renowned original properties, as well as bring high-profile western properties into the anime space, and in doing so, growing the market reach for anime.

One of Qubic’s strengths is a tenacity for pioneering new ideas and approaches. In 2013, Qubic was the first company to successfully introduce crowdfunding to the anime industry with Masaaki Yuasa’s Kick-Heart at Production I.G. Kick-Heart was well received on the festival circuit having competed in the world’s top animation festivals. Shortly after that, Qubic helped introduce Cartoon Network’s Adventure Time to Masaki Yuasa’s new animation studio, Science Saru, which led to the creation of a special Adventure Time short film called,  “Food Chain”.

In May of 2018, Qubic closed a deal with Netflix to make a new anime series called “Eden”. Eden is Netflix’s first wholly owned anime original title based on Qubic’s original pitch. Working closely with the creative team at Netflix,  Qubic managed the production and assembled an international group of anime industry all-stars to help contribute to the project, such as Yasuhiro Irie (FullMetal Alchemist: Brotherhood), Toshihiro Kawamoto (Cowboy Bebop), Kimiko Ueno (Little Witch Academia, Space Dandy), Atsushi Takeuchi (Ghost in the Shell), Kevin Penkin (Made in Abyss). In addition, Clover Xie (Wolsmoke), Nice Boat and CGCG (Star Wars: Clone Wars, Trollhunters) joined the production.  Eden will release in 2020.
