If you’re in the anime community, you likely have a favorite series that stands out to you above the rest. Whether that favoritism stems from plot, world-building, or the character roster doesn’t matter; regardless, you want to make sure the on-screen adaptation is faithful to the source material, fluid, and eye-catching. A huge part of this process falls on the animation studio that handles the development and production of each series. Recently, we’ve seen studios like Mappa and Ufotable get a lot of popularity because of their work on hit series such as Attack on Titan or Demon Slayer.

Though there are certainly big names in the industry, plenty of studios aren’t recognized as much for the quality work they produce. One such studio that isn’t always mentioned by name in animation conversation is CloverWorks. They’re known for many varied works, but to name a few: Spy x Family, Horimiya, Wonder Egg Priority, and Ace Attorney. This list will detail more of CloverWorks’ most notable anime series and detailing why you may want to give them a shot.
