TROYCA

トロイカ

TROYCA (TROYCA Inc.) is a Japanese animation studio located in Nerima, Tokyo, Japan. The studio's name comes from the Russian word for “team of three.”
Former members of Anime International Company (AIC), led by Ei Aoki (a former director at AIC), Tomonori Kato (a former photography director at AIC), and Toshiyuki Nagano (a former producer at AIC Classic), founded TROYCA Inc. in May 2013 to continue production of Aldnoah.Zero. This occurred when GAIA Holdings (now Aplix Corporation) announced it had suspended AIC’s upcoming in-planning production slate in the first quarter of that year.
In 2018, the studio absorbed Will Pallete, a Nerima-based animation studio established by former AIC Digital producer Naoto Kasahara in May 2015. As of 2024, TROYCA employs 61 full-time staff members across its headquarters in Nerima, Tokyo, and its Fujisawa Studio in Fujisawa, Kanagawa Prefecture.
