TYPE-MOON (Japanese game company) Add a review

Type Moon, also known as Notes Co., Ltd, is a Japanese media conglomerate that produces video games, anime, manga, light novels, and affiliated merchandise. It was formed in 1999 in Taitō, Tokyo as a doujin circle.

Type-Moon had later expanded into a company, and was aided by Japanese programmer Nobuyuki Kiyotake, and Japanese composer Keita Haga. The company uses its official trade name for its publishing and corporate operations, while the use of the brand name Type-Moon serves as a homage to the company's origins as a doujin circle of the same name. After releasing the visual novel Tsukihime as doujin soft, the group incorporated and commercially released the visual novel Fate/Stay Night which had later become one of the most known visual novels in history. Both of the titles were originally produced as adult games, and were later re-released without the erotic content.

Co-founder Kinoko Nasu is a prominent figure in the brand, having contributed to the planning and scenario in the majority of Type Moon's video games. While Takashi Takeuchi, the main designer for the company and another one of its co-founders, had mainly worked on character designs and background art. Keita Haga, Type-Moon's main composer, has composed music for the majority of Type Moon's titles.
