  • He is also listed as doing animation for Judo Boy on a few websites, however we could not see any version of anime that had animators credited.
  • Same thing as above for The Adventures of Hutch the Honeybee (1970 - 71)
  • He drew posted for Ganryujima 4: Way Of The Samurai[6]
  • He is extremely versatile. He can draw anything from cute to realistic looking characters[6]
  • He used to be extremely fast in his early days, often supervising and solo animating episodes.
  • At the age of 29, one early morning he collapsed due to overwork. He was diagnosed with ataxia. After that incident, he started relaxing a bit on his work[7]
  • Since he is over 70 now, he has been taking it easy. He is not much active in the industry, instead is doing some other things that he has always wanted to do[7]
  • Tatsuo Yoshida (founder of Tatsunoko Productions, studio where he started work) is his influence[8]
  • Tatsuo Yoshida and Ryoichi Ikegami are his favorite authors[8]
