Studio Gallop is an Anime studio that (mainly) specializes in toyetic and Merchandise-Driven anime. Established in 1972, the company didn't really start animating until the early-mid eighties, often working in other capacities (such as photography) in the meantime. One of their first big productions as an animation studio was High School! Kimengumi, on which they were subcontracted by NAS.
Compare (and contrast) Studio DEEN, Sunrise, TMS Entertainment and Toei Animation, four anime studios with a habit of producing franchises that make tons of money. See also Dong Woo Animation, their South Korean partner for several Anime.

Tropes associated with Studio Gallop[]
- Animation Bump: Essential for basically any animation studio. Gallop's no exception.
- Conspicuous CG: The reason as to why the original Initial D series is mocked to oblivion. Also present in Yu-Gi-Oh and Transformers.
- Merchandise-Driven: Yu-Gi-Oh and Transformers, both self explanitory.
- Off-Model: Really noticeable in Yu-Gi-Oh. Mocked in Yu-Gi-Oh the Abridged Series:
