Interview with Mamoru Yokota & Kenji Yokoyama[Audio Interview]
Where would anime be without its legendary animators; during ALA 2023, we had the opportunity to speak with Japanese animators Mamoru Yokota & Kenji Yokoyama about their working in the anime industry for over 25 years. Mamoru Yokota has been involved in a significant number of shows, mainly as an animator but also as a producer, character designer, illustrator, and game director. As an animation director, hes best known for multiple episodes of Death Note, NARUTO Shippuden, and 2020’s Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai. He was also one of the animation directors for ONE PIECE STAMPEDE and, most recently, ONE PIECE FILM: RED.
Kenji Yokoyama made his first appearance at an anime convention after over 40 years of dedication to the industry as a noted animator. Mr.Yokoyama. has worked on Gatchaman II and F, Dragon Ball Z, Dr. Slump, Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai, Jigoku Sensei Nūbē, and SLAM DUNK, Toriko throughout the 1970s and 1990s. Additionally, he has worked on One Piece in the last 25 years and, most recently, in Yashahime.
On an interesting note, Mr.Yokoyama animated a few scenes from the My Little Pony Movie, undoubtedly, I asked him about it!
