Studio CONNECT (Japanese: スタジオ CONNECT, Hepburn: Sutajio Konekuto), otherwise simply known as CONNECT, is a Japanese animation studio that is a division of SILVER LINK., Inc.[2] The studio was initially founded as CONNECT, Inc (Japanese: 株式会社コネクト, Hepburn: Kabushiki-gaisha Konekuto) in April of 2012 as a subsidiary of Silver Link, but was later wholly absorbed and dissolved into its parent company on July 17, 2020, and it subsequently became a sub-studio within the company.[3]
A majority of Connect's works were co-productions with its parent company.[1] Starting with the Monster Strike web anime, the studio was working less with its parent company, producing solo productions such as Senryu Girl, Oresuki, and The Honor Student at Magic High School.
