[https://web.archive.org/web/20131107012757/http://madhouse.co.jp/ Madhouse] is a highly regarded Japanese animation studio, probably best known for their adaptation of ''[[Death Note (Manga)|Death Note]]'', their [[Cardcaptor Sakura (Manga)|works]] [[Chobits (Manga)|with]] [[CLAMP]], [[Anime First|Their]] [[Denno Coil|anime]] [[Kaiba|first]] shows, and the movies done by [[Satoshi Kon]] and [[The Girl Who Leapt Through Time|Mamoru]] [[Summer Wars|Hosoda]]. They are also known for doing some of the anime of a mix of western works, for example, ''[[Highlander the Search For Vengeance]]'', ''[[Supernatural (Anime)|Supernatural]]'', ''[[The Pirates of Dark Water]]'', ''[[X-Men (Animeanime)|X-Men]]'', and part of the second season of ''[[The Boondocks (Comic Strip)|The Boondocks]]''. Madhouse had a long relationship with the late [[Satoshi Kon]]; they animated every project he directed (''[[Perfect Blue (Anime)|Perfect Blue]]'', ''[[Millennium Actress (Anime)|Millennium Actress]]'', ''[[Tokyo Godfathers (Anime)|Tokyo Godfathers]]'', ''[[Paranoia Agent (Anime)|Paranoia Agent]]'', ''[[Paprika (Literature)|Paprika]]'', ''[[The Dream Machine (Anime)|The Dream Machine]]'').
The company was established in the 70s and was one of the first studios used by [[TMS Entertainment]] (the first being A-Productions (later left TMS to become [[Shin Ei Doga|Shin-Ei Doga]]), [[Studio Junio]] and Studio Zero) to outsource their anime productions to.
They have also recently come to develop a relationship with the Baltimore based anime convention: Otakon - with Masao Maruyama now being an honorary regular of the event as well as the studio itself now producing its "intro animations."
