'''Agatsuma Entertainment (アガツマ・エンタテインメント)''' was a Japanese video game developer and publisher, best known for publishing [[wikipedia:Anpanman|Anpanman]] games, and later on the Umihara Kawase series. They localized [[Drawn to Life]] for Japan, with this translation releasing in December 2008.

=={{Icon|Book}} History==
Agatsuma Entertainment was initialized as a subsidiary of the toys and games manufacturer Agatsuma Co., Ltd. by game and toy industry veterans on February 12th, 1997 in Tokyo, Japan. As well as a game developer, they also acted as a video game agency business, collaborating with developers and publishers worldwide on business development.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20151029095330/http://agatsumaent.com/#whatwedo Agatsuma Entertainment, About]</ref> The company would release it's first game, the Game Boy Color title Oide Rascal, in 2001, and gain much more success with games based on the [[:wikipedia:Anpanman|Anpanman]] franchise.

In 2008, after the success of the original [[Drawn to Life]], [[THQ]] reached out to Agatsuma for a potential Japanese release of the game. Agatsuma would agree to translate it for Japan, along with publishing the game for said region. This localization, under the name ''Drawn to Life: God's Marionette (ドローン トゥ ライフ 〜神様のマリオネット〜, Dorōn tu Raifu: 〜Kami-sama no Marionetto〜)'', would release on December 8th, 2008 to positive reviews from Japanese critics, particularly Famitsu.<ref>[http://nintendoeverything.com/famitsu-review-scores-28/ Famitsu Review Scores, Nintendo Everything]</ref>

Agatsuma Entertainent would face financial ruin in their later years. An issue that's often cited is deterioration of administrative conditions, making it impossible to reach the same level of success.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20151211132836/http://agatsuma-games.jp/agatsuma%20press%20release1211.pdf Agatsuma Press Release, 2016]</ref> Agatsuma would see minor success with ''Sayonara Umihara Kawase'' and the Steam re-releases of the previous two games, however on December 11th, 2015, the company was dissolved before being liquidated entirely on March 31st, 2016.

=={{Icon|Question}} Trivia==
* Agatsuma is one of only two publishers to localize a game in the Drawn to Life series in a single region, the other being [[H2 Interactive]].
* Despite the first Drawn to Life being well-received in Japan, Agatsuma was not contracted to localize [[Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter]] for a Japanese release.
* Agatsuma developed a promotional Flash game on the Japanese Drawn to Life website, titled Shadow Bashing. You can read more about it [[Shadow Bashing|here]].
