After working as an assistant director in live-action films in
Shin-Toho Film Company, he joined Toei Doga Company in 1961. Although
his credited first film as co-director was "Anju And Zushiomaru", he
only took on the role of assistant director in this film, which was
actually entirely directed by Taiji Yabushita. His real debut as a
director was in "Little Prince and Eight Headed Dragon" (1964). Later
he co-directed the TV series and the two films (1966-67) based on the
manga "Cyborg 009" by Shotaro Ishimori. From then he co-directed more
than 20 animation TV Series for Toei before retiring in 1988.
