'''Grasshopper Manufacture, Inc.''' is a Japanese video game development house founded on [[March 30]], [[1998]] in Suginami, Japan. Grasshopper gained mainstream notoriety in [[2005]] for the [[Nintendo GameCube]] and [[PlayStation 2]] game [[killer7]]. In addition to killer7, they have developed [[Michigan]] (released in Japan and Europe) and a number of Japan-only titles. Grasshopper Manufacture was also responsible for the [[Nintendo DS]] game [[Contact]] and the [[Wii]] game [[No More Heroes]]. The company is headed by Goichi Suda, also known as Suda51, and is noted for its original and imaginative titles - ones that are also fraught with financial risk. Potential losses are often made up by the development of games based on popular anime franchises, such as [[Samurai Champloo: Sidetracked]] and [[Blood+: One Night Kiss]].
