KK Xebec ( Japanese 株式会社 ジ ー ベ ッ ク , Kabushiki-gaisha Jībekku ) was a Japanese animation studio.

history

Xebec was founded in May 1995 as a subsidiary of the animation studio Production IG and has been part of the joint holding IG Port since 2007. The company has 100 employees. A subdivision was established with the Xebec M2 studio , in which an additional 20 employees were employed. Xebec M2 was responsible for the series Petopeto-san , Hitohira and Zombie-Loan and last worked in 2008. In 2012, the studio Xebec Zwei (XEBECzwei) was founded in Nerima and in 2015 published its first series Sōkyū no Fafner: Exodus .

On November 20, 2018, the Xebec parent company IG Port sold the studio to Sunrise after the subsidiary had constant deficits in various years.

On March 5, 2019, Sunrise announced that it had formed a new company, Sunrise Beyond, at Xebec's address, with Xebec's operations being transferred to them.

Xebec ceased its existence as a business unit on May 31, 2019. The post-production teams that were not part of the sale to Sunrise were split up and consolidated into several IG Port companies, but Production IG inherited the company's assets. The copyright of Xebec past works has been returned to the IG Port Group as a whole.

The company's clients include Bandai , Geneon Entertainment , Shūeisha and Shogakukan .
