{{nihongo foot|'''Madhouse, Inc.'''|株式会社マッドハウス|Kabushiki-gaisha Maddohausu|lead=yes|group=lower-alpha}} is a Japanese [[animation studio]] founded in 1972 by ex–[[Mushi Pro]] staff, including [[Masao Maruyama (film producer)|Masao Maruyama]], [[Osamu Dezaki]], and [[Yoshiaki Kawajiri]].
 
Madhouse has created and helped produce many well-known shows, [[OVA]]s and films, starting with TV [[anime]] series ''[[Ace o Nerae!]]'' (produced by [[TMS Entertainment|Tokyo Movie Shinsha]]) in 1973, and including ''[[Wicked City (1987 film)|Wicked City]]'', ''[[Ninja Scroll]]'', ''[[Perfect Blue]]'', ''[[Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust]]'', ''[[Trigun]]'', ''[[Di Gi Charat]]'', ''[[Black Lagoon (TV series)|Black Lagoon]]'', ''[[Death Note]]'', ''[[Paprika (2006 film)|Paprika]]'', ''[[Wolf Children]], [[Parasyte|Parasyte: The Maxim]]'', the first season of ''[[One-Punch Man]]'', the second adaptation of ''[[Hunter × Hunter]]'', ''[[Overlord (novel series)|Overlord]]'', and ''[[Frieren|Frieren: Beyond Journey's End]]''. Unlike other studios founded at this time such as [[Anime International Company|AIC]] and [[J.C.Staff]], their strength was and is primarily in TV shows and theatrical features.

In 2003, Madhouse produced ''[[Nasu: Summer in Andalusia]]'', which was adapted from the [[seinen]] manga ''[[Nasu (manga)|Nasu]]'' by [[Iou Kuroda]] and directed by [[Studio Ghibli]] veteran [[Kitarō Kōsaka]].

In 2006, director [[Mamoru Hosoda]] began his career with the studio by directing ''[[The Girl Who Leapt Through Time (2006 film)|The Girl Who Leapt Through Time]]''.
 
Recent productions included [[Masayuki Kojima]]'s theatrical debut ''[[Forest of Piano]]'' (2007), Hosoda's acclaimed ''[[Summer Wars]]'' (2009), Sunao Katabuchi's ''[[Mai Mai Miracle]]'' (2009), the company's first CG animated film, ''[[Yona Yona Penguin]]'' (2009), [[Takeshi Koike]]'s feature film debut ''[[Redline (2009 film)|Redline]]'' (2009), a theatrical version of the ''[[Trigun]]'' series, ''[[Trigun: Badlands Rumble]]'' (2010), and ''[[The Tibetan Dog]]'', a co-production with China (2011).
 
The first film in the ''Hunter × Hunter'' franchise, ''[[Hunter × Hunter: Phantom Rouge]]'' premiered on January 12, 2013.
 
After producing and animating Mamoru Hosoda's ''The Girl Who Leapt Through Time'' and ''Summer Wars'', Madhouse co-produced ''[[Wolf Children]]'' (2012) with Hosoda's newly-founded [[Studio Chizu]].
