Mari Tominaga (とみなが まり Tominaga Mari?), real name "富永真理", is a Japanese animator and character designer. She was a member of Studio Live and is now currently working as a freelancer. Tominaga worked as a character designer for Detective Conan anime in episode 219 and 263 with Masatomo Sudo , then later served as the character designer from episode 356 to 504.

Biography

Tominaga first worked on the Detective Conan anime as a key animator starting with Episode 11: Moonlight Sonata Murder Case. Later, she worked as the sub-character designer for Episode 55 : The Train Trick Murder Case, and animation director starting with Episode 162: The Locked Room in the Sky: Shinichi Kudo's First Case. She then occasionally did key animation and animation direction works afterwards.

In 2003, the production staff had undergone a huge reshuffling, which led to Tominaga replacing Masatomo Sudo as the anime's character designer. She would served as the chief animation director for two TV specials, Episode 304: The Trembling Police Headquarters: 12 Million Hostages and Episode 356: Kaitou Kid's Miraculous Midair Walk.

Meanwhile, she was also responsible for animation direction works for many openings and endings. In mid-2007, Tominaga stopped doing works for the openings and endings; as a consequence, this task was then assigned to Keiko Sasaki.

In 2008, Tominaga stepped down as the anime's character designer. Replaced by Masatomo Sudo and Junko Yamanaka. Since then, she consistently worked as a key animator for the Detective Conan movies.

When Tominaga worked on Episode 928: The Scarlet School Trip (Red Love Arc) as a key animator. She received a compliment from Detective Conan's original author Gosho Aoyama for her two keyframes of Shinichi and Ran kissing.
