Bandai Namco Holdings - TV Tropes

Bandai Namco Holdings Inc. (previously known internationally as Namco Bandai Holdings until 2015) is a Japanese media conglomerate formed in 2005 from the merger of video gaming giant Namco and toy/anime giant Bandai. It holds numerous subsidiaries that operate in many different parts of the entertainment industry, including anime, music, video games, toys and arcades.

As a holding company, Bandai Namco Holdings isn't technically a media creator. This page will instead serve as a pseudo-disambiguation to its numerous "Bandai Namco"-branded subsidiaries.
