Parhelion Studio Co.

Parhelion Studio Co. is an anime-focused game studio based in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and a portfolio company of a16z (Speedrun Cohort 002). Founded by a team that met at the University of Michigan, the studio builds live-service anime mobile and PC games — including gacha titles and the tactical anime trading card game Echoes of Astra — publishing across Steam, the Apple App Store, and Google Play. Their mission is to make anime a global medium and to create long-lasting IP through games and technology. Parhelion Studio is a consumer entertainment company; a public, scan of its website (parhelion.gg), app-store listings, and the a16z Speedrun profile found no developer-facing API, SDK, MCP server, webhook, or other machine-readable API surface. This profile was added to the API Evangelist network as an a16z portfolio lead and enriched to confirm it has no public API program at this time.

Parhelion Studio Co. is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Games, Gaming, Anime, and Entertainment.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/parhelion-studio-co: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
