In the beginning he performed quite decently, but afterwards, some frames collapsed, and he received some criticism. Incidentally, he collaborated with Hirohito Ochi quite well in the Library Murder Case, and created a horror atmosphere for that episode.

During the first-half of 1997, after doing the animation work of The Mystery Weapon Murder Case, he quit the anime production. However, he returned to the anime production team in 2009 and served as animation director for The Hand That Plays in Dissonance; he ceased being involved with the series thereafter.
