Shioya went to Runtime at some point. [1] Here's a game Quintet and Runtime both worked on. [2] CRV (talk) 06:00, 17 May 2017 (CEST)

Nice find. Looking through the credits for Bleach the main staff is much the same as PS2 Inuyasha (including Shichijo, guess he kept working freelance for them after Giant Seven shut down). Akira Kitanohara is listed under Quintet as "development environment organizer", so I guess he was still with Quintet (though contractors seem to be mixed in). Shioya is the sound programmer (under Runtime). I'll get these transcribed in the near future. --Dimitri (talk) 06:29, 17 May 2017 (CEST)

The Twitter comment linked suggests that the company may have been kind of a mess in their later years, and the bankruptcy (I'm guessing in 2007) left clients unpaid.

"I've been running this company for ten years now and never been involved in legal action. Quintet was the only time we didn't get paid because of a bankruptcy. I don't know the reason that company had so much legal trouble, but I got the impression that happened with them easily." [3]
