The record lists Hiroyuki Imaishi as Japanese key animator and anime director.
Hiroyuki Imaishi was born at Tokyo in 1971. His recorded nationality is Japan. He trained at Tama Art University.

That the work was made from Japan shaped it: national industries differ in what they finance, who they cast and which audiences they can reach.
