東寶計劃於 2032 年前大幅擴展動畫製作規模
Japanese entertainment giant Toho is embarking on a bold mission to transform its anime division into a primary business pillar by 2032.
日本娛樂巨頭東寶公司正展開一項大膽的計畫，將動畫部門打造為二〇三二年的主力業務支柱。
This strategic shift is driven by the global popularity of anime and significant success in theatrical and streaming releases.
此一戰略轉變係受動畫全球熱潮及其在戲院發行與串流平台所獲巨大成功之推動。
To achieve these ambitious targets, Toho intends to double its animation division staff and deepen investments in partner studios, including Science SARU and Studio Orange.
為達成此雄心勃勃的目標；東寶擬將動畫部門員工人數翻倍，並加深對合作工作室（包括 Science SARU 與 Orange）的投資；盡管該公司重心在於創作新的智財以平衡《我的英雄學院》等現有暢銷 IPP；然而仍面臨產業勞動條件與可持續增長之挑戰。
By prioritizing global distribution and licensing, Toho aims to increase its operating profit by over 200%.
此舉顯示該公司致力將動畫打造為其未來國際成功之基石的決心。
This initiative signals a major commitment to making anime a foundational element of the company’s future international success.
