Anime production companies in Japan generated a revenue of 101.9 billion Japanese yen via overseas sales in 2023. As anime in Japan are often produced by production committees consisting of multiple corporations from different industries, such as toy makers and music companies, the total revenue of the Japanese animation industry is significantly larger than the revenue recorded by companies that engage in the actual production of animation.
