Talk:Bandai Visual

Article
This article is horribly erroneous. Bandai Visual is a public company, not a wholly owned subsidiary of Namco Bandai, and Anime Village was started by Bandai Entertainment (A wholly owned subsidiary of Bandai America, itself a wholly owned subsidiary of Bandai Co.), not Bandai Visual. Going to fix these errors now, but won't have time to completely re-write the entire article or dig up citations, but this should be done. Tmpst 15:32, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Bandai Visual is indeed a subsidiary of Namco Bandai Holdings, Inc. as stated in Namco Bandai's official website:, and as noted in Bandai Visual's website; see bandaivisual.co.jp, where Namco Bandai group's logo is noted clearly, and its related press releases, which I have added to the article along with other references further verifying Bandai Visual being part of Namco Bandai. The Japanese wiki article for Bandai Visual also states that it is a subsidiary of Namco Bandai. You also removed information from the article pertaining to the company's headquarters, which is situated in Minato, Tokyo, as noted in its official website, but provided no explanation whatsoever to this removal. Also, please remember to title new talk page discussions, as detailed in the talk page header (clicking the + button e.g.). ··· 巌流 ? · Talk to Gan ryuu 11:40, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Removal of the information about the company headquarters was an accident, sorry.Tmpst 03:31, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

Category
Would the list of produced anime be better served as a category? I'm not sure if it would survive a Cfd if it were to be made. --Squilibob 10:38, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

List by date
Just a small suggestion here, but I think it would be more helpful to have the list of productions be in a by decades format, similar to the articles for some of the other studios like Sunrise. This would make it easier to track down certain productions that one doesn't know the title of, sort productions better by quality and era, and make it a little easier on the eyes. Just an idea, thanks. Achtzehn (talk) 05:36, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

Subsidiary and sister company merges
Following the merge of Bandai Entertainment I think a similar case can be made to merge Beez Entertainment and any similar articles I've missed. Bandai Visual, being the central producer of the anime, should suffice as the sole article on the topic. These other companies appear to be little more than regional shells for Bandai Visual to conduct business internationally and don't warrant encyclopedic focus due to a lack of independent context. Of course if someone can demonstrate otherwise please do. Ham Pastrami (talk) 05:33, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

Now we no longer have a list of Beezs releases DreamsDreams (talk) 17:04, 15 July 2014 (UTC)DreamsDreams

Does Bandai Visual count as an anime studio?
Recently I've been getting into something of a disagreement with a user who does not consider Bandai Visual to be one even though they're listed in Anime News Network's encyclopedia as having directly produced many shows. Maybe I'm confusing Animation Production and Executive Production. I know that Sunrise is part of their system so it could be they're right and BV is only a name holder, but I remain uncertain. I'll continue to investigate and see if it is or isn't cause they still handle many of the functions of a studio. WikiRefundAdjuster (talk) 01:26, 19 April 2011 (UTC)
