Witchcraft
From Game Developer Research Institute
WITCHCRAFT inc. (株式会社ウィッチクラフト) is a developer based in Toyoshima-ku, Tokyo. It was established January 11, 2008 by Akifumi Kaneko (金子彰史) and Shojiro Endo (遠藤正二朗), along with a team of former Media.Vision staff. Kaneko was previously director of the Wild Arms series at Media.Vision, while Endo previously ran Feycraft; the two had previously worked together at Telenet Japan subsidiary Riot.
Endo took over as the company's director after Kaneko stepped down in October 2015, staying on only as a part-time advisor. Kaneko joined music publisher Aria Entertainment as the chief producer of their cross-media division in 2016.
