Magic Bus (studio)

is a Japanese animation studio headquartered in Nishi-Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan. The company was founded in April 1972 by producer and director Satoshi Dezaki, and the studio's first work was '' Shin Kyojin no Hoshi'' in 1977. In 1983, with Dezaki directing, Magic Bus collaborated in the animation production of ''Captain''. Magic Bus has since become largely an animation subcontractor for other animation studios.
