>>10323849Paying attention to studios will only get you so far as it's the people behind each production that ultimately matter most, but they still have broad identities that can help decide whether their works are worth looking at eg. Sunrise specializes in mecha, Bones makes interesting if inconsistent originals and shounen adaptations, Shaft is artsy [their identity is especially pronounced since all their works more or less make an effort to imitate Shinbou's directorial style], Doga Kobo is probably the most consistent studio for CGDCT, etc.
