Career
Career
• Illustration — Correct spelling of his name in Japanese Hanja After working as an assistant director at TBS, he joined Tsuburaya Productions in 1964. His first directed work was the 21 episode of Ultra Q, "Space Directive M774". He has directed and produced many works of Tsuburaya Productions including the original Ultraman series. In Ultraseven, he was selected for the final production. In addition, he also showed his musical and acoustic skills by effectively using the insert song "ULTRASEVEN" and the candidate song for the theme song (commonly known as "Ultra Seven Song Part II") that was rejected, and by performing the announcement of "Fourth Gate, Open!" that resonates in the base in the launching scene of Ultra Hawk 1.
