A unique hallmark seen in many of their works (''Ninja Nonsense'', ''Futakoi Alternative'', ''Coyote Ragtime Show'', ''Gakuen Utopia Manabi Straight!'', ''Tales of Symphonia'', ''The Garden of Sinners'') is a claymation sequence.
They have had a long relationship with Type-Moon, having produced adaptations of their works such as ''Fate/Zero'', ''Fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works'', and ''The Garden of Sinners'', as well as Bandai Namco Entertainment, for whom they have produced an opening animation and cutscenes for many of their games, primarily in the ''Tales'' and ''God Eater'' series.
In 2025, the studio produced the highest-grossing anime film of all time, ''Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – The Movie: Infinity Castle''. The film surpassed the studio's previous record-holder, ''Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – The Movie: Mugen Train'' (2020), which was the first non-Hollywood production to top the annual global box office.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.crunchyroll.com/news/latest/2025/9/23/demon-slayer-kimetsu-no-yaiba-infinity-castle-highest-grossing-anime-film-worldwide|title=Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle Becomes Highest-Grossing Anime Film Worldwide|date=24 September 2025|website=Crunchyroll}}</ref>
