Brave pictures is an animation production studio of Brave group, established in February 2024. The studio is based in Nakano, Tokyo, and its animation studio is located at JESCO Shin-Nakano Building 2F in Nakano. The company has a capital of 10 million yen. Representative Director Takayoshi Hoshi leads the studio, with Yuki Ogawa and Kenichi Kurihara serving as directors.

Brave group operates multiple VTuber businesses in Japan and abroad. The parent company has accumulated knowledge in fan community trend analysis and character IP. Brave pictures combines that IP development expertise with the production know-how of creators and staff experienced in the animation industry. The studio aims to deliver content appeal in the "shortest, fastest, and highest quality" through animation videos.

Director Yuki Ogawa said the studio values understanding the appeal of IP and the context of fan communities, and carefully translating that into expressions that convey the charm of the characters. He noted that the studio combines over 10 years of expertise in animation production with the knowledge of IP businesses such as VTubers, games, and music that Brave group has developed domestically and internationally. Director Kenichi Kurihara said the studio aims not only to create beautiful animation, but also to value the perspective of how the IP's appeal should be received by fans. He stated that through the accumulation of character expressions, movements, direction, colors, and cuts, the studio draws out charms that cannot be conveyed by words alone.

The studio's portfolio includes the opening video for "Hanazakari no Kimitachi e," the ending video for "9-nine- Ruler's Crown," music videos for Vspo! projects "Shining Phrase!" and "Queens," promotional videos for StelLive's "Everys" and the trading card game "Xross Stars," a Valentine's 2025 content video for Vspo!, and a debut promotional video for the Isekai VTuber project "UniReid!." The company stated it aims to more clearly communicate its production areas and structure, and to strengthen its reception of consultations for promotional and content video production utilizing IP such as VTubers, anime, manga, and games.
