Kazuya Shiotsuki
Japanese Guest
Affiliated with Shaft since 2002. Character Designer and Chief Animation Director.
He has the flexibility to freely adapt his art style to match the tone of the original work, ranging from serious, realistically proportioned characters to deformed (Chibi), comical ones. He also excels at "quality insurance" as a Chief Animation Director. Even when dealing with complex compositions unique to Shaft productions or designs with dense linework, he is a highly trusted creator who can bring everything together beautifully without compromising the quality of the animation.
