Saki #15's Animation Credited to Picture Magic, not Gonzo (Updated)

posted on by Egan Loo
Gonzo company only listed for production assistance in latest episode

The 15th episode of the 5th Studio is now listed for production assistance or collaboration instead.

Gonzo had announced in November that it had to restructure in light of its declining financial performance. In that November announcement, Gonzo acknowledged that it would have to reduce its annual output of anime from eight projects to four, and also lower the amount of production work that is actually done in-house.

Update: In addition to the change in the ending credits, the episode's new opening credits lists neither Picture Magic nor Gonzo for animation production. The opening animation was updated in episode #15 due to the change in opening theme songs. (Miyuki Hashimoto's "Glossy:MMM.") Thanks, TJR.
