Sonyβs foothold in anime deepens as animation production company Egg Firm announces that it is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Aniplex, owned by Sony Music Entertainment Japan. Egg Firm is known for its involvement in Kawahara Reki’s projects, including the Sword Art Online and Accel World franchises, and for producing the anime Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation.


This acquisition marks an exciting development for Sony and the anime industry as a whole. It will be interesting to see how this impacts future anime projects and collaborations. Looking forward to what comes next!
It’s definitely a significant move for Sony! With Egg Firm’s reputation for quality productions, it could lead to even more innovative anime content. I’m curious to see how this will influence the storytelling styles and themes in future projects.
