“We wanted to build a place where we could find new forms of expression, new genres, and new themes through creation. Looking back, it was with great joy and gratitude that I rediscovered the works we have been creating with our wonderful friends.”
Masahiko Minami, President of BONES
The four 24-minute long episodes titled “The History of Bones,” “Style and Originality,” “Successful Adaptation,” and “Metallic Rouge: The Future of Bones.” revisit the studio’s founding in 1998 and to what tomorrow has in store for the animation workshop.
