Tokyo Movie Shinsha Co., Ltd.,[a] (also known as TMS and previously known as Tokyo Movie) was a Japanese animation studio based in Tokyo, Japan that was founded in 1964 by former Hitomi-za staffer Yutaka Fujioka. The company is best known for producing and/or animating a number of anime and animated shows.

In 1995, after a brief tenure as a wholly-owned subsidiary of video game and entertainment company Sega, the company merged with manufacturer and amusement center operator Kyokuchi, effectively dissolving the company. To continue doing animation work, Kyokuichi established the Kyokuichi Tokyo Movie (also known as TMS-Kyokuichi outside of Japan) division which lasted until 2000, when Kyokuichi renamed themselves to TMS Entertainment to focus more on animation and amusement centers. TMS would later divest their amusement centers to Sega, solely focusing on animation ever since.
