Xebec, Inc. (株式会社ジーベック Kabushiki Gaisha Jībekku?) is a subsidiary of IG Port (the holding company of anime studio Production I.G) that specialises in the production of television anime. They have worked on many popular series such as Love Hina, To Love-Ru and Martian Successor Nadesico. Their sound effects department uses sound effects similar to those distinctly identified with Sunrise.
The company logotype is unique, in that it includes the phonetic transcription: [zíːbek].
In 2003 the subsidiary XEBEC M2 was established, which focuses in providing animation assistance for their main studio and other companies (including OLM, as in Pokémon: Destiny Deoxys). It has also produced three full series: Petopeto-san, ZOMBIE LOAN and Hitohira. Its last activity was in 2008/2009.
In 2012 it was followed by XEBECzwei, which handles in-between, key, and 2nd key animation for their main studio and other anime studios. It later produced the full series Fafner in the Azure: Exodus, which ran throughout 2015.
