Artist: yoshinobu inano (Version 2)
Fans call him Inanon. Was credited as Yoichi Akino in Ideon and some other works.
Formed Studio Bird (not to be confused with Akira Toriyama's Bird Studio) with partners Yoshinori Kanemori and Hiroshi Oikawa in the late seventies.They are hardly ever credited as Studio Bird. Most 80s works that have Inano's involvement also have Kanemori. They were instrumental in a lot of 80s anime, like Galaxy Express 999, Queen Millenium, Gegege no Kitaro, Stop!! Hibari-kun, Wingman, Patalliro, etc.
He has a distinctive style both in character animation and effects animation. Leans toward fairly realistic figures and motion, but doesn't draw in many details. Can easily identify his scenes from the appearance of supporting cast / mob characters or the occasional uncorrected cut (e.g. post #21438). Ambiguous, blobby effects are fairly common (e.g. last cut of post #29999).
