Profile

Anime-Keep and ANBU operated as a real joint release identity rather than a casual credit. Anime-Keep's own archived site directly confirms Samurai 7 as a joint project with ANBU. Contemporary AnimeSuki records also preserve Keep & ANBU releases for Fullmetal Alchemist, Wolf's Rain and Bleach. Coverage and endpoints should be stored per series instead of treating the Fullmetal Alchemist project as the definition of the entire joint.

Signature style

Formal joint-project identity preserved across Fullmetal Alchemist, Wolf's Rain, Samurai 7 and Bleach records. Anime-Keep's own site explicitly announced Samurai 7 as a joint project with ANBU on 2004-06-15.
