Career

Kamitsubo began his career in the anime industry as a photographer and episode director with studios Gonzo and Studio Deen.[3][4][5] In 2004, he worked under Akiyuki Shinbo on the original anime series Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha,[6] and the following year was brought into Shaft by Shinbo the following year, where his first project with the company was as an episode director on Tsukuyomi: Moon Phase.[7] He would later make his series directorial debut with Shinbo and Shaft in 2007 with Hidamari Sketch.[8] Soon after, he left the company and began working on various Xebec projects, including his own series Softenni and Hen Semi.[1][2] In 2012, however, he announced that he would be leaving the industry, and his final work would be as an episode director on the tenth episode of To Love Ru: Darkness under the pseudonym Motona Hino (日野基鳴, Hino Motona).[8][9] Despite this, Kamitsubo returned to the industry in 2014, acting as a storyboard artist for Xebec's series Argevollen beginning with the 13th episode.[10] Since 2017, Kamitsubo has mainly worked on series produced by Doga Kobo.
