The company's name, "VOLN", is an acronym for "Visiting Old Learn New".[1]

Establishment

The studio was founded on August 12, 2014, by ex-Madhouse producer and director Mita Keiji, who currently heads the company as its president and representative. The studio's first two animated series were co-productions with MAPPA, including an adaptation of the popular manga series Ushio and Tora.
