Studio Colorido Co., Ltd. (Japanese: 株式会社スタジオコロリド, Hepburn: Kabushiki-gaisha Sutajio Kororido) is a Japanese animation studio subsidiary of Twin Engine.

History

The company was established by producer Hideo Uda in 2011. The studio follows a principle of "making a place where people involved in anime can continue to work peacefully and to contribute to the further development of Japanese animation culture". The "Colorido" in the studio's name translates to "rich in color" or "colorful" in Portuguese and Spanish.

Years later, the company entered a business partnership with company Twin Engine and became a subsidiary in the network, with Twin Engine CEO Kōji Yamamoto becoming co-CEO.

In April 2022, Studio Colorido signed a multi-year co-production deal with Netflix. The first was Drifting Home which was released in September that same year. The second was My Oni Girl, which was released in May 2024.
