5 | Established in 1961 after his contract for Creator/ToeiAnimation[[note]]Tezuka wrote some scripts for a few of their movies[[/note]] expired, '''[[http://www.mushi-pro.co.jp/ Mushi Productions]]''' is an Anime company established by renowned Manga artist Creator/OsamuTezuka. The companies (both Mushi and Tezuka Pro) are best known for adapting his works into animation, though the first incarnation of Mushi was also Creator/RankinBassProductions' overseas partner for a while. Many HouseholdNames of the early anime industry started their career as Tezuka-disciples in ''Mushi Pro'', including highly influential directors such as Creator/YoshiyukiTomino, Creator/OsamuDezaki and Creator/{{Rintaro}}, who all shaped the Anime of TheSeventies to considerable degree. |
6 | |
7 | Between 1962 (the year Astro Boy went into production) to 1968, Tezuka himself headed the studio and give the company to the husband and wife duo of Hideaki & Yoko Hatta and lead director [[Manga/Golgo13 Osamu]] [[Manga/SpaceAdventureCobra Dezaki]] in 1969. This persisted until the studio's bankruptcy in 1973. By then, Dezaki, along with Masao Maruyama, Yoshiaki Kawajiri and Rintaro had left to establish Creator/{{Madhouse}} (in 1972). Everyone else that played a big part of Mushi also left to form other studios (see below), Tezuka himself forming Tezuka Pro shortly after. The company reopened in 1977 by Hideaki & Yoko Hatta, who then left in 1981 to establish Creator/KyotoAnimation. |

9 | The studio is well-regarded for producing both commercial series such as ''Anime/AstroBoy'' and deeply uncommercial avant-garde works such as ''Anime/BelladonnaOfSadness''. |
