Bushiroads

Bushiroad is a Japanese entertainment company founded in 2007. It is known for its work in various media, including trading card games, anime, mobile games, and professional wrestling. The company's primary focus is on creating and marketing intellectual properties (IPs) that can be enjoyed across multiple platforms.

One of Bushiroad's most successful ventures is its trading card game (TCG) division. They publish popular TCGs such as Cardfight!! Vanguard and Weiß Schwarz. These games have garnered significant international followings and are often supported by anime adaptations that further promote the game's universe.

In the realm of anime, Bushiroad has been involved in the production and distribution of numerous series, many of which are based on their TCGs or original concepts. They also operate a mobile game division, developing and publishing games that often tie into their existing franchises, allowing fans to engage with their favorite characters and worlds on their mobile devices.

Bushiroad also has a significant presence in professional wrestling through its subsidiary, New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW). NJPW is one of the most prominent professional wrestling promotions in the world, and Bushiroad's ownership has contributed to its international expansion and marketing efforts. This diversification showcases Bushiroad's strategy of leveraging its IPs across different entertainment sectors to build a cohesive and engaging brand experience for its consumers.
