Raging Bull is one of five KADOKAWA anime studios being integrated into Studio One Base Co., Ltd. in November 2026, with its trade name and production line kept in place. It also directed a promotional video for the Mobile Suit Gundam Eight manga.
Raging Bull is among five KADOKAWA anime production studios that will be folded into a new company, Studio One Base Co., Ltd., in November 2026. The others are ENGI, Studio KADAN, Chiptune, and Bellnox Films. The new company will be based in Toshima Ward, Tokyo, with Tsuyoshi Kikuchi as representative director and president. About 310 employees will move over, and KADOKAWA will hold 100 percent of the capital. The arrangement keeps the studios' trade names and production lines rather than merging them into one brand, a structure KADOKAWA describes as addressing talent shortages and rising production costs.
Separately, Raging Bull directed a special promotional video for the Mobile Suit Gundam Eight manga, written by Hajime Kamoshida and Shuei Takagi. Tomoki Kyoda directed the video at the studio. The August issue of Kadokawa's Gundam Ace magazine revealed the video. The manga is set in a new setting called the Constant Calendar, where survivors fight Kaiju using the last Gundam, and it has been in development since 2021. Its second volume had just released.
The two stories connect through Kadokawa's role in both: it owns the studio being folded into its new subsidiary and publishes the magazine that announced the Gundam Eight video. The consolidation is the larger change. Raging Bull's name survives the reorganization and its production line continues, while its back office moves under Studio One Base.
