Marza Animation Planet (マーザ・アニメーションプラネット株式会社) is a Japanese animation studio that is owned by Sega Sammy Holdings. It is a continuation of Visual Entertainment R&D Dept., a "CG image production" department of Sega, which was spun-off into a separate company in June 2009. It was briefly known as Sega Sammy Visual Entertainment Inc. before adopting its current name in July 2010.

Marza Animation Planet produces computer generated animation, mainly seen as pre-rendered movies in video games, but also some feature films. It is currently a subsidiary of TMS Entertainment (which in turn is owned by Sega Holdings, owned by Sega Sammy Holdings).
