NHK Sing and Learn: "When You're in a Bear-y Bad Spot"

2026
Only Image
Created the animation for “Kuma Toki wa,” broadcast on ETV’s Utatte Manabo. I was in charge of character design, direction, and backgrounds. The content teaches three kinds of measures: measures to take if you encounter a bear, measures to avoid coming across one, and measures to prevent bears from entering town. The aim was to convey these measures in a fun, approachable way, so that children can actually reenact them from the video and learn how people and bears can coexist in their respective environments.

YOASOBI "Comet" Official Music Video

2020, 2021
00:03:40
A music video set in the world of the manga BEASTARS. The first 89 seconds also serve as the ending sequence for the second season of the TV anime BEASTARS. The blue-world portion in the first half was colored frame by frame entirely with watercolor paints. By combining this blue segment with the red-world segment that begins in the second half, which is expressed digitally, the video presents two extremes within a single music video, contrasting the tenderness and happiness that have filled the past in the story behind this song with the cruel reality that is to come. For the production of this video, three-dimensional models of each character were created. Using these as references for the drawings made it possible to depict the BEASTARS characters, whose complex shapes are difficult to express through animation, with hand-drawn animation.

NHK E-tele’s “The Wakey Show” music video for the September 2025 learning song, “The Song of Impressionism.” This song is about a character named “Marigold,” who is well-versed in art, and is themed around “a song that teaches you about the art movement Impressionism.” In the video, the “Motte Pets” dolls, which appear in various roles throughout the program, are dressed up as Impressionist painters, and the piece is edited so that Marigold and the painters seem to be singing together. I was responsible for the direction, character design for the painter costumes, magical CG, and editing, including compositing. Editing environment: Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve

I was responsible for the direction, CG production, and editing, including compositing. Editing software used: Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects

A live-action music video themed around multiple timelines in outer space. It imagines different time axes drifting through memory, dreams, and the far reaches of the cosmos, each moving at its own speed. Animation evoking space is projected and filmed through reflections in mirrors and vinyl sheets. Using shots of the band members’ backs as key frames, the continuity of the live-action footage is fragmented and reconstructed. Footage of the same shot at different frame rates is prepared and placed into separate areas divided by boundaries created through animation. Separation and reunion repeat quietly.

In the Taro district of Miyako City, Iwate Prefecture, which suffered devastating damage from the tsunami in the Great East Japan Earthquake of 2011, we invited local residents to slowly share their memories from the time of the disaster. Based on their testimonies, we created an animated reenactment. Interwoven with interview footage, it looks back on the townscape and the people around them at the time, while also portraying the attitude of the staff of “Learn Disaster Preparedness,” who convey the lessons of disaster prevention as if passing them from hand to hand.

An eyecatch video used during live broadcasts on J SPORTS, Japan’s largest sports channel. Selected from extensive athlete footage, it was created as a rotoscope full animation. It depicts power and muscle, explosive speed and the beauty of trajectories, including abstract nuances. In the perspective that picks up the beauty of athletes’ muscles and in the occasional bursts of color, we pursued what only hand-drawn animation can achieve. To accommodate the irregular scheduling of live broadcasts and be usable at random lengths, care was taken so that it would clearly read as a sports program no matter where it is cut. The visuals are precisely synchronized to the rhythm of the music, with movement designed to draw the viewer’s gaze in.

When I first listened closely to Kohei Matsushita’s “Sayonara no Mukō ni,” the face of a friend living far from his hometown came to mind. And I thought of the many “goodbyes” he had experienced. Before the one-and-only final “goodbye,” I experience countless goodbyes of my own. Among them are goodbyes that come only once, and goodbyes for which tomorrow is promised. This work was animated entirely on paper. I want to walk through the world that spreads out beyond “Sayonara no Mukō ni,” together with the rain of tears. Riding on the bamboo boat we made with them.

The streets of Harajuku in Japan are overflowing with Kawaii, a chaotic yet pure and unfiltered youthfulness. I walked through Harajuku several times while making this music video, and I wondered what “love” in this city would look like visually. After listening to City Cyndrome’s music, I wanted to create an animation that captures the intersection of the perspectives of a tough woman and a Harajuku boy, their near-misses, and an almost arrogantly personal point of view. As for the technique, I started by drawing with air spray and watercolor.

Phantom Siita "Sweet Pea" MV

2026
00:03:19
The language of sweet pea flowers is said to be “never forget me” and “farewell.” Memories that were meant to be sealed deep within the heart return no matter how fiercely one resists, tormenting the soul without end. Obsession and dependence that consume the self are certainly poison capable of destroying one’s very being. And yet, in those moments when one simply sinks into the sea of surging memories and suffocates, might there not be a secret, maddening ecstasy—one that feels as if both body and heart are melting away? What I have depicted this time is a parable of such love and ruin. It is a twisted tale of love woven by a soulless mechanical doll and the dollmaker who pours the poison of life into it. Please enter this sweet hell, accompanied by the alluring and ethereal resonance of Cö shu Nie and Miku Nakamura, as if lost memories were softly whispering in your ear.

While celebrating the 10th anniversary together, it also deepens the connections among members and serves as a starting point for that passion to spread to new companions.

While it is 2D-based, I took on the challenge of incorporating 3D footage sparingly to achieve a richer visual quality. By picking up the various lyrics—a mix of Japanese and English—and the unique sounds produced by beatboxing, I have attempted to visualize the music through a diverse range of motion graphics tailored to each specific element.
