Notes

  • He is fast. Used to supervise and solo animate episodes a lot in the 70's and 80's. Still helps a lot of productions, mostly Toei Animation ones now.
  • Nobuteru Yūki in an interview mentioned about how the final episode of Invincible Super Man Zambot 3 looked so close to Yoshikazu Yasuhiko designs. Then described Sasakado as a skillfull person. For context, it was a solo animated episode.
  • Also credited as 佐々間信芳
  • His name being spelled as 佐々門芳信, and 佐々木信芳 are both errors in Anime Staff Database Japanese Wiki. Actual credits lists him just as the regular spelling of 佐々門信芳
