Biography
After he entered the anime industry, he initially worked at Trace Studio M (トレーススタジオM), and was in charge of projects like Ninja Hattori-kun (忍者ハットリくん) etc. Thereafter, he diverted to production and joined Tokyo Movie (東京ムービー), what is now known as TMS Entertainment, in 1984. His first animation work ever produced was Magic Knight Rayearth (魔法騎士レイアース). And after that, he mainly produced animation works for Yomiuri TV and TV Tokyo.
In August 2011, he stepped down from the chief producer role of Detective Conan anime (and producer role of the movies). Later on, he distanced himself from the production site, perhaps on account of his chronic illness.
In 2015, he served as the chief producer of the anime Ultimate Otaku Teacher (電波教師) under the supervision of Yoshioka's friend, Masuo Ueda (植田 益朗) from A-1 Pictures. The anime, although listed A-1 Pictures as animation production, was actually produced by TMS Entertainment, while A-1 Pictures only act as the production site, in order to back up the return of Yoshioka. Therefore, this was his last work as an anime producer.
