Sentai Studios is an American post-production studio of Sentai Filmworks located in Houston, Texas. It was founded as Industrial Smoke & Mirrors, the in-house studio of ADV Films. It was renamed ADV Studios in 2005 when it merged with ADV's secondary studio, the Austin-based Monster Island;[1] and then in 2006, when ADV began offering its services to other companies, the studio was also called Amusement Park Media before it was sold off by A.D. Vision in 2008.[2] It was then renamed Seraphim Digital and was renamed to its current name in 2014.

The studio is best known for producing English-language dubs of Japanese anime series and live-action Japanese films released by ADV, Sentai, Switchblade Pictures, and Maiden Japan.[3] Other notable clients include Warner Bros., Sony Pictures, Microsoft, PBS, and Toei Animation.[4] The majority produced by this studio airs on Sentai's HIDIVE streaming service.
