Chura Sound (Creator)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/chura_1.jpg

Chura Sound is a Japanese sound effects company founded on March 13, 2006 by Eiko Morikawa and Hiroki Nozaki, who had previously worked at the now defunct Sound Garden.

And due to Eiko Morikawa also being a former employee of Swara Productions, you'll often hear sound effects from both Swara Pro and Fizz Sound Creation's libraries in their productions, in addition to ones Chura Sound created themselves.

And as of 2015, Takahisa Ishino transferred here from the also now defunct Sound Ring, adding their sound library into the mix.

For the sake of convenience, projects handled by Sound Garden will be listed here too due to its closure in 2010 as well as Otojuku due to it's smaller number of output.
