History

Reanimedia was founded in mid-2007 as a successor of XL Media

On October 22, 2007, Reanimedia announced that it was planning to acquire XL Media.[1][2] Consolidation between the two companies was expected to finish by February 2008. However, on May 6, 2008, Reanimedia announced that the agreement had been cancelled due to "irreconcilable differences" between the firms.[3][4] XL Media employees who had previously joined Reanimedia continued working for their new employer. XL Media was acquired by a third party and continued working with new employees.

The dubbing studio, which was originally created in October 2005 to perform dubbing of OVA Tristia and later performed a number of dubbing works for XL Media (see List of works for XL Media, below), became a part of Reanimedia in 2007.[5]

At the beginning of 2008, Reanimedia released its first products: Pet Shop of Horrors and Five centimeters per second.

On June 1, 2009, Reanimedia opened its own online store.[6]
