In 2013, they created the first international large-scale co-production for a Japanese comedy, with Yosuke Fujita's Fuku-chan of FukuFuku Flats. The project brought in Tucker Film in Italy, Joint Entertainment in Taiwan, Rapid Eye Movies in Germany and partnered them with Japan's TV Man Union and Phantom Films.
