Favorite anime studio

[Evrika]

Each anime studio has it's own style in scripts, graphics, music and so on. Watching anime we can often guess which studio it was made by.
I want to know, which anime-studio do you prefer and why do you like it?
You can vote for two.

As for me: the leader of my hit-parad is SunRise, I have been watching it's anime since I was little. In my childhood it was Mobile Suit Gundam and Escaflowne, and now it is Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion.
My second vote go to BONES - studio. It isn't a secret, that Bones was founded by Sunrise staff members, so Bones and Sunrise have much in common: style, graphs. It seems to me, that all anime produced by Bones are brilliant.

I'll have to go with MADHOUSE for my 1st place. Their animation quality is great, even for long series like Monster or Saiunkoku Monogatari. I've seen many adaptations done by them, and I always notice what exceptional work they always put into their quality. Their animation budget must be pretty high, being always so perfect 8)

Second place goes to Studio DEEN. Not much reason behind that one, except I really really love how they do the eyes ^^

for me its Bones
the first anime i watched by them was Rahxephon and good god did i love the amount of detail they paid to thier backgrounds and character designs.As expected of people who tried to redefine the standard of mecha-anime,a shame they didnt achieve thier dream and Rahxephon ended up bieng flamed because I would've loved to see mecha anime with such backgrounds.

Madhouse
these folks are the ones making about 90% of CLAMP's anime adaptations....nuff said.I especially love the realistic artstyle and colors they used for Gunslinger Girl,shame they didnt get asked to animate its second season as well.That new artstyle is just so...meh

Bandai
my love for them mainly comes from the good ole days when they had highly detailed realisitic machines,nowadays they are more into making big explosions and reusing the same scenes in thier combat oriented anime like gundam. so im not sure if i should post about them....

I have to say i love BONES too, their quality is fantastic. I think them and Madhouse are the best in animation quality department.

How about 3 best works of your favorite studio?
(art and animation quality-wise, not the story)

I'd say
for Madhouse:
1. Monster
2. Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust
3. Death Note
honorable mention - Himitsu
as you can see, i really love their 'dark' anime. i think they're perfect for this kind of atmosphere. but then again, Saiunkoku Monogatari is top-quality as well. not to forget Chi's Sweet Home ^_^

for Deen... since i only chose them because of their pretty and detailed eyes, i guess i'll go with top 3 eyes LOL
1. Kyou Kara Maou (Wolfram's eyes alone are enough for 1st place)
2. Vampire Knight
3. Princess Princess

for BONES:
1. Jyu Oh Sei (i was just in awe at the beauty of it)
2. Darker than Black
3. vacant >.> lol

Madhouse
1.Gunslinger Girl
2.Card Captor Sakura
3.Yu Yu Hakusho

Bandai
1..Hack//Sign

special mention:all the old gundam series,put a good amount of detail on the machines,showing fuel tanks and the inner gears that make the machines move.something non-existance in mecha anime these days

BONES
1.Phantom Memory Kurau
2.Angelic Layer
3.Rahxephon

dunno what was more beautiful,the backgrounds or the way the characters flow in battle
