Youmex (ユーメックス株式会社, Yūmekkusu Kabushiki Kaisha) was an anime production company, as well as a game producer, record label, and video production company. The original name of the company was 株式会社ユーメックス, established as a subsidiary of Toshiba EMI in 1985. The official English name of the company is YOUMEX. The company was absorbed back into Toshiba EMI in 1998, at least in part due to having to take on debt defaulted on by Artmic.
Some of the more well-known works produced by Youmex include Kimagure Orange Road, Bubblegum Crisis, and Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water.
