An anime studio responsible for many popular anime series and adaptations of three Key Visual Arts visual novels: AIR, Kanon, and Clannad (although these were all also separately adapted by Toei Animation). Held to high regard for their usually good animation quality, as well as almost disturbingly realistic backgrounds and the generous use of little touches to spice up the character animation. They also know how to tug at viewers' heartstrings, and never let go. Their shows tend to be huge commercial successes, with Haruhi Suzumiya, Lucky Star, and K-On! leading the pack so far.
In 2007, the firing of Yutaka Yamamoto led to lots of people resigning after Lucky Star's original run and creating another studio called Ordet, who made the Black Rock Shooter anime. But that's another story.
