(Japanese: 株式会社グループ・タック, Hepburn: Kabushiki Kaisha Gurūpu Takku) was a Japanese animation and computer graphics studio located in Shibuya, Tokyo, and founded in 1968 from former Mushi Pro staff. They worked on movies, videos, TV shows, and commercials, and contributed to all stages of the process, including planning, production, sound effects, and so on.
