The studio went under in 1984 (after which for 2 years Topcraft did some outsourcing for other Japanese studios and ''Adventures Of The Little Koala'', after that the studio went out of business in 1986) when Hayao Miyazaki took 70% of its staff (alongside Toru Hara) and co-founded StudioGhibli after ''Nausicaa'' came out. After that, 10% left Topcraft when the studio got worse. They included Hideaki Anno, when he and others founded [[StudioGainax Gainax]]. The remaining 20% went to work for Pacific Animation Corp. to produce RankinBass's ''WesternAnimation/{{Thundercats}}'' and ''WesternAnimation/{{Silverhawks}}'' until Disney bought that studio in 1988. And later became [[TokyoMovieShinsha Motoyoshi Tokunaga's]] WaltDisneyAnimationJapan. In any event, Topcraft will forever be remembered as a footnote in the history of animation and for Hayao Miyazaki's ''Nausicaa''.

See also StudioGhibli where most of their staff members went to work for after Topcraft went out of business, and Pacific Animation Corp. which later became WaltDisneyAnimationJapan.
