Line 13: == Walt Disney Animation Japan == The biggest of the non-North American units, WDAJ was founded by Motoyoshi Tokunaga (a Ex-[[~~T Ms~~TMS]] producer) in 1988 after Disney bought out Pacific Animation Corp. (a studio mostly known for doing [[Rankin Bass]]'s [[Thundercats]]). However, the studio was shut down in 2004 as Disney was getting rid of their non-CGI animation units (yet the Los Angeles units were saved). After that most of their staff members went to work for [[Madhouse]], [[Studio Pierrot]] or [[Production I.G]]. the ones that went with Tokunaga went with him when he formed [[The Answer Studio]]. See also [[Tama Productions]], [[Nakamura Productions]], and [[Hanho Heung Up]], three studios often used by Disney Japan; Also see [[Spectrum]], Disney Japan's non-Disney based unit that lasted until 1998. Line 29: * ''[[Gargoyles]]'' (Several episodes; All with assistance<ref> including [[Jade Animation]], [[Nakamura Productions]] and [[Wang Film Productions]]</ref>) * ''[[Goof Troop]]'' (5 episodes) * ''[[Hercules (~~Disney~~1997 film)\|\|Hercules]]'': TV series. * ''[[The Hunchback of Notre Dame (Disney film)\|The Hunchback of Notre Dame]] 2'' * ''[[Lilo ~~and~~& Stitch: The Series\|Lilo and Stitch The Series]]'': The last TV production by Disney Japan. They did a number of episodes because of how popular ''[[Lilo and Stitch (Disney film)\|Liloand Stitch]]'' is in Japan. * ''[[The Little Mermaid (animation)\|The Little Mermaid]]'': TV Series. * ''Mickey's Once Upon A Christmas'': First short only, the rest of it is done by Disney Canada. Line 52: == Walt Disney Animation Australia == Founded in 1989, the [[~~Useful Notes/~~Australia (country)\|\|Australian]] unit is often known among the animation community for having very cartoonish and expressive animation, which they are still praised for. Unlike the Japanese unit, however, the studio lasted longer-it became the main hub for Disney's [[Direct to Video]] sequels, a role originally fufilled by the Japanese unit. Line 80: == European Units == * [[~~Useful Notes/France\|~~France]]: More active in the feature film department, but didn't do as much as the Japanese and Australian units when it came to their TV productions. France animated three episodes of ''[[Darkwing Duck (animation)\|Darkwing Duck]]'', five episodes of ''[[Goof Troop]]'', some ''[[Tale Spin]]'' episodes, and one ''[[Bonkers]]'' short, "Petal to the Metal". * [[United Kingdom]]: They worked on ''[[DuckTales the Movie: Treasure of the Lost Lamp]]'' [http://gregory_weagle.livejournal.com/228086.html and 3 episodes of] ''[[Tale Spin]]'' under contract from the France unit.
