Fizz Sound Creation Co., Ltd. is a sound effects company working in the entertainment industry in Japan, primarily animation.
The company was founded in 1971 by Hidenori Ishida as Ishida Sound Production, Inc, but, the company later changed its name Fizz Sound Creation in 1980.
They're pretty much responsible for the majority of the stock sound effects that you hear in many, many anime (especially mecha) and early tokusatsu to the point where their sound effects have (and still are) been used in shows they or their employees didn't provide sound effects for note
For the sake of convenience, projects handled by JetSoundEngine and WaiWai Sound will be listed here too due to their smaller numbers of output.

Tropes associated with Fizz Sound:
- Stock Sound Effects: Is this for Japanese media. Besides making their own foley, Fizz also uses sound effects from several foreign effects libraries, like for example Hanna-Barbera's, which has been used since the 1970s but became more prominent in the 1990s.
- The Super Robot Wars series uses the Fizz Sound library A LOT for obvious reasons including the ones stated above, they even use 'em for Gunbuster despite Fizz's sound library not even being utilized once for the actual series!
