He is credited as an animation director for Stardust Crusaders, co-chief animation director for Diamond is Unbreakable, and chief animation director for Golden Wind.

His career in animation notably started with the first season of the JoJo anime, where he used the experience as a key animator to learn the basics of animation and improve his basic drawing skills.[4] He has since then become one of the series' mainstay animation supervisors. His genga and corrections are often cited by other staff as very intense.[5][6]
