Informações Pessoais

Naoko Yamada joined Kyoto Animation in 2004 and was first tasked with drawing in-betweens for Inuyasha. She later made her debut as KA (key animator) on Air episode 9 and working as key animator on some episodes of The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi, followed by directing an episode of Clannad (episode 17 marked her directorial debut) and within a short time, rose in the ranks to debut as director on K-ON! in 2009. Naoko Yamada's most noticeable signature direction quirk is using legs to show the spectrum of human emotion. In 2020, Yamada left KyoAni to join Science SARU, where she directed 2022's Heike Monogatari. (Source: Sakugablog & Wiki, edited)
