@ims-tokyo So they're actually making anime that Silver Link can't take on directly?
In recent years, SILVER LINK. has been in the red and they’ve been aiming to reduce the deficit by increasing the amount of orders it takes on a year.
However, SILVER LINK. at present doesn’t have the human resources necessary to handle this new trend and they’ve been increasingly relying on outsourcing for its works. In the past year alone, 13 episodes of its works (excluding co-productions) were gross-contracted out to BLADE for example — which as of 2020, only has 6 full-time employees.

@ims-tokyo So, at this point, is this studio something like White Fox and CloverWorks when they were sub-brands of their parent studios?
Sort of, yes. The animation department (BLADE) of TOKYO ANIMAIDPLAZA (changed name to BLADE in 2014) was established by former AIC ASTA producer Norio Yoshida and is an affiliated of what IIRC is a car manufacturing/logistics company run by Yoshida’s family.
However, it’s not on the same scale as for example Production IMS and TROYCA — in which IMS took over the former AIC Spirits’ studio space, as well as production of Inari Kon Kon, Date A Live, and Heaven’s Lost Property from AIC and TROYCA who took over production of Aldnoah Zero from AIC.

@ims-tokyo Were there any assumptions? I watched some of their past shows and they mostly adapted popular manga from before.
Nah, I just found it kinda funny as Norio Yoshida was the production producer for Oreimo.
BLADE as of late has been primarily focusing on a crazy amount of gross-contracting work for SILVER LINK. It would be ironic to see if there is going to be production issues for this anime like during Oreimo’s run.

Considering Norio Yoshida was the production producer for Oreimo… but dipped AIC Build/AIC after like episode 2 to join the family business and started BLADE.
