116
117	!!Unconfirmed:
118	* ''VideoGame/CrashBandicoot1996'': [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1t_4YclrGqM This unused intro sequence]], traditionally animated. It was mentioned by ''Crash'' producer David Siller that it was sent to Universal Cartoon Studios, who at the time was heavily using AKOM.[[note]]About 1/4 of the shows and movies in the above list- ''Earthworm Jim'', ''Exosquad'', ''Problem Child'', ''Savage Dragon'', ''The Spooktacular New Adventures of Casper'', and ''Vor-Tech'', not to mention all those ''Land Before Time'' sequels- were all Universal productions.[[/note]] The art style and animation also harkens to the studio's work on ''Earthworm Jim''.
119	* ''Forbidden Bridge'' commercial: As with all commercials, no credits are listed, but the animation certainly looks like their style.
120	* ''WesternAnimation/TheMagicPudding'': AKOM lists having worked on the film on its website, but they aren't listed in the credits and no crew members are listed. Crew members from Creator/FilCartoons ''are'' listed, however.
121	* ''WesternAnimation/TheRealGhostbusters'': The show is mentioned on their page on Website/{{Wikipedia}}, with the episodes "Slimer Come Home" & "When Halloween was Forever" in Season 1 and "Station Identification" & "Fright at the Opera" from Season 2 attributed to the studio.
122
123	----
124	!!Tropes associated with AKOM:
125	* AnimatedAdaptation: ''Attack of the Killer Tomatoes'', ''Earthworm Jim'', ''[=RoboCop=]'', ''Savage Dragon'', the list goes on.
126	* AnimationBump: Occasionally (including select instances in ''Batman'', ''Transformers'', and ''Tiny Toon Adventures''). WordOfGod has pointed out that they did the good animation in ''Spiral Zone''. Also appears in ''The Simpsons Movie'' for [[BigBudgetBeefup obvious]] reasons.
127	** Many fans of WesternAnimation/{{Arthur}} consider the company's animation to be of acceptable quality as well, slight errors aside.
128	* {{Animesque}}: ''Teen Days''.
129	* MediaNotes/TheDarkAgeOfComicBooks: What their animation style for ''G.I. Joe Extreme'' and ''Exosquad'' resembles.
130	** ''X-Men'' would slip into a similar style once in a while as part of that show's inconsistent animation quality.
131	* ButtMonkey: Considered one for the ''Transformers'' fandom due to their poor animation. Creator/SamYoungAnimation's work only exacerbates the issues.
132	* DerangedAnimation: Their season 1 ''Tiny Toons'' episodes were quite rubbery and wacky, though they got a bit more conservative starting in the second season when Dev Ramsaran replaced Warren Marshall as overseas supervisor.
133	** ''The Simpsons'' has its moments as well, especially when the animation was produced at Creator/KlaskyCsupo instead of Creator/FilmRoman and eventually [[Creator/TwentiethCenturyStudios Fox Television Animation]].
134	* HowTheMightyHaveFallen: AKOM was one of the busiest studios of the late '80s through the '90s (in 1996, for example, they worked on ''fifteen'' different series throughout the year [[labelnote:Those being]]''The Simpsons'', ''The Tick'', ''Casper'', ''X-Men'', ''Vor-Tech'', ''Sky Dancers'', ''Dragon Flyz'', ''Savage Dragon'', ''Animaniacs'', ''Pinky and the Brain'', ''Road Rovers'', ''Gargoyles: Goliath Chronicles'', ''Earthworm Jim'', ''Flash Gordon'', and ''Arthur''[[/labelnote]]), but the 2000s were not kind to the studio (and they lost one of their major properties, ''Arthur'', to Animation Service (HK)), and the '10s have been even worse. It's now gotten to the point that ''The Simpsons'' is, for the most part, the only American series they're working on anymore (and even there, roughly half of each season is done at Rough Draft).
135	* LazyArtist: Aside from some exceptions like ''The Simpsons'' [[note]]Simpsons Archive claimed they were the best overseas studio, citing their work as "clean, slick, and professional."[[/note]], they are a pretty awful poster child of this trope.
136	** The studio (along with Creator/{{Sunrise}}) was fired from ''Batman'' as a result of their general incompetence. [[http://worldsfinestonline.com/WF/batman/btas/backstage/animato/ As this article]] says about the episode "[[Recap/BatmanTheAnimatedSeriese19ProphecyOfDoom Prophecy of Doom]]":
137	---> '''Series director Frank Paur''': "How hard is it to animate circles?"
138	** Paur adds in the same article that "[[Recap/BatmanTheAnimatedSeriesE27MadAsAHatter Mad as a Hatter]]" was AKOM's best episode, but still needed to perform "close to a hundred retakes", and Creator/BruceTimm says "[[Recap/BatmanTheAnimatedSeriesE20FeatOfClayPart1 Feat of Clay, Part 1]]" was animated by AKOM's C-Team, and "nearly completely redone two or three times before we could actually air it without cringing".
139	*** While the first part of "The Cat and the Claw" wasn't all that hot, the second part (given to AKOM) was a mess, according to Creator/BruceTimm.
140	---->'''Timm:''' The whole end sequence was geared around the explosions, and they were some of the worst you'll ever see. We retook all of them two or three times. They were still awful, but we ran out of time and had to air them.
141	** Even ''The Simpsons'' was not immune, despite being considered the best studio by some. Thanks to a combination of Creator/KlaskyCsupo (the first domestic studio to work on the show) still animating in the looser, more cartoony ''[[Series/TheTraceyUllmanShow Tracey Ullman Show]]'' style and AKOM not getting the unique animation feel of the show (not helped by most of their past work at the time being rather amateurish even for 1980s standards), "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS1E13SomeEnchantedEvening Some Enchanted Evening]]" almost cancelled the series before it even began; Creator/JamesLBrooks famously said of it, "This is shit." It's estimated that about 70% of the episode had to be re-animated (and headed by David Silverman's team), with only a few scenes from original director Kent Butterworth surviving to air.
142	*** On a similar note, the commentary notes that "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS3E3WhenFlandersFailed When Flanders Failed]]" came back with "a thousand mistakes in it and was just a complete and utter mess." Some parts had to be re-animated in America.
143	** Related to the "Some Enchanted Evening" example above, the ''X-Men'' pilot "Night of the Sentinels" had similar issues regarding its animation. Their refusal to fix these two episodes almost forced a contract severing between them and Marvel (their longstanding partner at that time) by Fox, [[http://notblogx.blogspot.com/2012/04/wizard-x-men-turn-thirty-august-1993.html Wizard Magazine]] even noting that one industry insider suggested their motto be "Akom... Quality Is Our Only Compromise." Like "Evening", the two episodes were fixed for reruns and later releases. The rest of the series, despite its stiffness and inconsistent character designs, would never dip to the same levels the pilot did.
144	** Then, there's ''The Transformers''. While it's hard to explain ''what'' extreme AKOM's episodes go to without WallsOfText[[labelnote:]]Only the Season 1 episodes animated by Creator/AshiProductions and Creator/NakamuraProductions, and both Mihan and Creator/SeiYoung's work in Season 2, rival their episodes in terms of horrible quality control[[/labelnote]], what '''''is''''' easy to explain are some of the more common errors in their episodes, such as the wrong character model being used (they had a habit of using Grimlock's rounded robot mode head and giving Optimus and Soundwave white backpacks for instance), layers done wrong so that a character will ''disappear "behind" something that's actually behind him'', three shots with a group of characters will have three different versions of the roster, including an Autobot with Decepticons or vice-versa. And it wasn't just aesthetically displeasing[[labelnote:]]which is saying something given the quality of the original series was usually pretty terrible[[/labelnote]], but could ''really'' become plot-altering[[labelnote:example]][[http://tfwiki.net/mediawiki/images2/6/60/Decepticons_w_galvatron.jpg A very infamous example]] from "Five Faces of Darkness, Part 1" has Galvatron's character model among a crowd of cheering Decepticons as Cyclonus and Astrotrain rescue '''''Galvatron''''' from a lava pool. Also, a lot of PaletteSwap characters exist in this series and they get switched around a lot more with AKOM; if Starscream does something and ''Starscream'' responds to it, which Starscream is really supposed to be his blue repaint Thundercracker?[[/labelnote]] and could easily become unintentional instances of DerangedAnimation on full display. All of this is exasperated by the fact that this was their first animation work upon foundation.
145	** It was inevitable for ''Exosquad''- the highly-detailed designs of the E-frames and various other tech in the show pretty much assured this would happen.
146	** While the character designs that AKOM used for ''Tiny Toon Adventures'' were nice, the animation itself could vary wildly. Some of the worst offenders in the series were "A Quack in the Quarks" and "Wacko World of Sports".
147	** These problems would also carry over to ''Animaniacs''. AKOM episodes have a similar art-style to episodes animated by Creator/WangFilmProductions (which had generally [[AnimationBump high-quality animation]]) at first glance. However, in practice, AKOM is much less fluid and has a tendency to make wacky expressions borderline AccidentalNightmareFuel. Their animation quality then deteriorated further, and they were fired in the final season, while Wang (which was also beginning to decline in animation quality at this point) got to stay until the show ended.
148	*** A strange inversion happened during production of "Back in Style," which called for [[StylisticSuck deliberately]] LimitedAnimation, since the plot revolved around the Warners being shipped off to various other studios during MediaNotes/TheDarkAgeOfAnimation. AKOM had to go through multiple retakes because the animation wasn't limited ''enough.''
149	* LimitedAnimation: Not to the extent of Creator/{{Filmation}}, but still present. Of course the founder first worked at such a [[Creator/DePatieFrelengEnterprises company]].
150	** Averted to some extent on ''WesternAnimation/TinyToonAdventures'' and ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}'', which utilized full animation.
151	* SignatureStyle: In many of the shows they animated on, AKOM liked to draw the characters with shadows that shifted when they moved.
152	** Most explosions animated by them [[note]]as seen in ''Transformers'', ''X-Men'', ''Bucky O'Hare'' and early episodes of ''The Simpsons''[[/note]], tended to be nothing but giant plumes of oranges or greys (or in some cases, both) animated by painting directly onto the cel. This was largely phased out by the mid-90s.
