The Japanese animated film “If I Can Ride Along With The Waves” has finally gone through the storm of retreating gear and will soon be on the big screen in the Chinese market this Saturday. This rare film brings together an animated movie featuring Ryota, Matsumoto Honka, Kawaei Rina, Ito Kentaro and other popular Japanese actors and idols to dub. It can be seen that the producer is very interested in attracting non-two Dimensional crowd attention.

For a two-dimensional audience, without looking at the luxurious post-95 dubbing lineup, just the name of director Yuasa Masahiro is enough to make them pay for it immediately. In the animation industry, the director’s strength and fame are the core factors of the quality of animated films and box office. So today, Junjun decided to make a ranking and introduction for Japanese animation film directors, so that audiences who want to know this circle can know more about these well-known directors, and I also hope that friends of the second dimension will see if this list As you think.
It needs to be emphasized again that we made this list only for Japanese directors who have done animated films, and those gods who are only active in the field of television animation are not counted. And except dayLocally, the director’s popularity and influence in the Chinese market has also been considered.
In addition, this list is mainly based on the direct rating of the director ’s influence in the two-dimensional circle. There is actually no similar statistics in the official. We just give a reference score, and welcome more friends. Leave a message to discuss with us after reading it.
Next, Benfan begins.
Okada Yuri Class C
If you want to rank Japanese animated screenwriters, Okada Yuri will no doubt be among the top three. As the director, Gang Ma currently has only one work, “Assorted Flowers in the Morning, Bringing a Flower of Promise to the Parting,” and the volume is too small, but she is still eligible to enter our list because Gang Mom’s potential is really too great.
Okada Yuri
Okada’s resume as a screenwriter is shocking enough, “Rose Maiden”, “Kuroshitsuji”, “Dragon and Tiger”, “Bangzizi” and “China we still do n’t know what we have The name of the flower I saw “ (” Flower Names Unknown “) .
Gangma ’s masterpiece” Unknown Flower “is very popular in Douban
After walking in the animation industry for many years, Gang Ma’s current story style has stabilized to two words: sensational. This has caused a more polarized viewing situation. People who like it cry curiously when they watch it, and people who don’t like it feel awkward and overly emotional. This is also an important reason why Gangma’s director’s debut film “Chao Hua Xi Shi” is less than 20 million US dollars worldwide. However, we believe that with so much scriptwriting experience, Okada Yuri will find a breakthrough in the direction of director. The market has high growth potential and the future can be expected.

Yuasa Masaki Class C
Yuasa Masaaki is a standard academic in the Japanese animation industry. He started as an original painter, and later began to be a person and a painting supervisor. Later, he became a screenwriter, a scorer, and a performer. He eventually became a director and achieved his achievements one step at a time. He has not only the simplicity of animators growing all the way, but also the simplicity and persistence unique to Japanese culture. Today there is another fashionable word to describe a man like him-the spirit of craftsman.
汤 浅 政 明
Now that the two-dimensional audience admires Yuasa Masaaki because of “The Fourfold and Half Mythology” and “Ping Pong”, two television animations that are regarded as gods. In fact, as early as a dozen years ago, the first Internet aborigines in China had already had troubles with Mr. Yuasa. Remember the animated short film “Cat Soup” that was popular on video websites at that time, and its screenwriter was Masao Yuasa.
Because it is a traditional academy, Yuasa’s animation always has good audiovisual performance. The very dynamic long shots in his animation are commonplace, and it is especially comfortable for film and television professionals to watch. However, for ordinary viewers, Zheng Qiang Ming also persuaded many fans because of his clear style.
Yuasa Masaki’s style does not conform to the Japanese animation tradition of beautiful teenagers and beautiful girls
However, this time, “If I can ride on the waves with you,” Masaru Yuasa made a change, at least the design and style of the painting are more in line with the audience’s understanding and understanding of Japanese animation. Bring better box office results. On the other hand, Tang Qianming has also signed a long-term contract with NetFly. In the future, several of his animated movies and TV series will be broadcast on NetFly alone, so we will see his name appear more and more frequently . You may not know him before, but his name is definitely worth remembering.
新房 昭 之 C-class
In China, For many post-90s and post-00 anime fans, their recognition and affection for the new house Akiyoshi may be higher than for Miyazaki. Because “The Story Series” and “Magic Girl Madoka” are too hot and too successful.
新房 昭 之
New House Zhaozhi is undoubtedly a benchmark in animation directors since the 21st century. He is known as the “original shredder”, and works adapted by him into animation will be embedded in his strong personal performance style, which will have expressive power beyond the original. And he also attracted gold. The CD-ROM sales of “The Story Series” and “Magic Girl Madoka” both broke records. And the box office of animated movies is not bad. Like the previous year, “Fireworks” earned 78 million box office in China, which also proved his position in the hearts of Chinese animation fans.
One of the hegemonic animations of station B, “Magic Girl Madoka”
Unfortunately, Xinfang Zhaozhi has not done a lot of director work in recent years. More often, he is only a director. This is also why the movie versions of “Magic Girl Madoka” and “Fireworks” are not high starring actors the reason. I hope that in the future, I can see more animations of the new house in full operation.
YamadaShangzi Grade B
Nominated as the number one female director in the Japanese animation industry, no matter whether it is a TV animation or an animated film, it is undoubtedly Yamada. As one of the representatives of Kyoto animation, Yamada is a veteran hero who developed with Kyoto animation. And her “Light Girl” is a pioneer of “girly daily class” in the Japanese animation industry.
Yamada Naoko
In terms of animated films, Yamada’s film versions “Light Girl” and “Tamako Love Story” have both gained excellent reputation, and have also been around the box office in Japan for about 2 billion yen. In addition, there are more than 20,000 copies of optical disc sales, so the income is definitely not low.
In addition to her good performance of 2.3 billion yen in her previous year’s “Shape of Sound”, her Kyoto animation work, which was first shown in the Chinese market, also had nearly 45 million box office results. In addition, “Sound of Sound” also won the best animation of the year at the 2017 Tokyo Animation Awards.

The positive style and picture are the style of Nakoko Yamada and the label of Kyoto animation, which is why they can harvest a lot of word of mouth and income. Unfortunately, the fire in July this year made Kyoto animatedSuffering heavy losses, the unfortunate death of many animators has also made the anime fans heartbroken. But we believe that in the future, Yamada and Kyoto Animation will still bring dream-filled works to the audience.
Tachikawa B grade
Three years ago, no one knew Tachikawa’s name. But now, Tachikawa Jean is already a leader in the new generation of Japanese animation directors. This is thanks to two works, Passer-by-the-Super 100 and Detective Conan: Zero Executor. The former made him recognized and recognized by the industry, while the latter made him a director of the 10 billion box office.
Tachikawa Ran
Reviewing Li Chuanrang’s resume. Although he became a director in 2015, he has participated in many masterpieces before. “Gate of Destiny”, “Sword Art Online”, and “Attack on Titan” are all annual explosions in the animation, and he has important positions in the lens and performance, showing the industry’s recognition of his ability.
Unlike many animated directors, Tachikawa is a director who does not like adapting the original style, which is why “Passengers Super 100” and “Zero Executive” can take care of both old fans and new audiences. The essence of using the form of animation to restore the original work is Tachikawa’s most outstanding ability. In the future, there should be more cartoonists and novelists who tend to give his works to him for adaptation into animation.
Tachikawa made a famous work, “Passengers Super 100”
庵 野 秀 明 Class B
Maybe you do n’t have the habit of watching animations, but you can’t help not knowing (EVA) . The director of EVA is Hideaki Takino.
“”> 子 “庵 野 秀 明
The two-dimensional circle currently has a normal state, that is, the old animation fans are distressed, why the newcomers have not even seen EVA. The new animation fans are also distressed, why the old man has been blowing an animation 30 years ago. In fact, the questions on both sides are very easy to answer, because Takino Hideaki can only sit on top of Japanese animation for a lifetime with only one “EVA”. It’s a pity that Hideno Sumino has really only made one “EVA” in his life.
He did make a masterpiece, but he only has this masterpiece. This is his strength and his weakness. It is impossible for the audience to see Takino Hideaki making a new animation. His current thoughts are on special films, such as “New Godzilla” last year, such as “New Ultraman. Therefore, if the new audience does not go through the past works, waiting for the new works to understand his animation can be almost impossible to achieve.
“EVA” scene, the smile of the goddess
Although fans of old animation have long given up their expectations for new works, they only hope that the fourth part of the new theater version of “EVA” will be delivered on time next year. After all, it has been 7 years since the release of the third part. And according to Takino Hideaki’s movie “EVA”, an increase of 20 million US dollars in box office results worldwide, I believe that next year’s “EVA” new theater version can have a good box office record. If China can be successfully introduced, there must be many old animation fans rushing to pay back movie tickets.
Mori Otsui Class A
“Fu Xing Boy”, “Mobile Police”, “Ghost in the Shell”, a beautiful animation memory from the 80s to the youngest, were created by Oshii Mori.
Oshii Mori
Oshii Mori’s achievements are no longer in doubt. A look at Rotten Tomatoes or Douban’s score for Ghost in the Shell is enough to illustrate his popularity in the animated film and science fiction movies. He also directed “Wolf” and “The Assassin”, which also highly praised him, helping him to sweep the animation awards in Japan.
At the same time, Oshii Mori is also the first of the old Japanese animation film directors to start using CGI technology extensively, and it is still in use. For example, “Ghost in the Shell 2.0” which uses a lot of CG pictures, although it is very different from the previous picture style, can still nominate the Golden Palm best film and Anne Award.
Stills from Ghost in the Shell 2.0
The above is enough to prove that Oshii Mori has the ability to control technology. Unfortunately, it is because his animated film “GRM” costs too much. ( 8 billion yen on the Internet) , but the producer was helpless. Coupled with his seniority, he is currently in a semi-retired state. It is very difficult to see his new films in the future, but this does not affect his contribution and status in the three areas of animation and film and science fiction.
大 友 克 洋 Class A
The most animated director in Hollywood is Otomo Keyo and his “Akira”. This is beyond reproach, because the historical significance and achievements of Akira are too outstanding.
Kyoyo and Akira
As a 1988 animation, it has earned a total of 6.3 billion yen at the box office in Japan. It has been named the greatest animation in history by both Empire Magazine and Time Magazine. Since then, the influence has been widespread, and almost all dystopian science fiction movies will have the shadow of “Akira”. There is no doubt that Akira is the most ideological output movie in the East-Japan animation in the late 20th century.
Otomo Keyo has also attracted worldwide attention with Akira, and his reputation is no less than Hayao Miyazaki. He has successively won the Japanese Aster Medal and the French French Art and Literature Medal. The “Reminiscence Trilogy” and “Steam Boy” after “Akira” also helped him to continuously nominate the Golden Lion and the Palme d’Or. The “Old Man Z” and “Metropolis” he participated in as a screenwriter are also classics in the history of animation.
“Reminiscence Trilogy” poster
Although there are not many works, all of them are fine. Otomo Keyo is currently retired, but his works are still fresh even if they are turned out now.
Hosuda Mori Class A
In the current market, the oldest Japanese animated film director is the one who can fight best. It’s not Hayao Miyazaki who hasn’t made a new work for a long time, but Hosoda. The rustic characters in his works, the life of rural towns, bright and dazzling colors, and positive stories make almost every audience instantly fall in love. It can be said that Hosoda’s animation style is the most Japanese and also the most exhilarating.
Hosuda Mori
He may not be the highest-grossing director, but each movie is worth 5 billion yen.He has been able to get a very good investment to launch new works constantly. He may not be a high-profile celebrity before the public, but has won all Japanese animation awards and nominated Oscars. A series of achievements have made him enough to be called a master.
Hosoda’s career masterpiece “Summer Battle”
Hosuda Mori is currently at his peak. His works meet the audience at a rate of one a year. I believe that he will make further great achievements in the future.
Xin Haicheng Class A
Xin Haicheng’s personal story is too inspirational. From independent filmmaker to the head of the Japanese animation industry, his experience is as touching as his animation, and he is undoubtedly the most popular animation film director in China now. Old animation fans love “The Other Side of the Cloud” and “Five Centimeters Per Second”, and new animation fans love “Your Name.” “,” Son of the Weather. ” His work is as inclusive as his animation style.
Xin Haicheng
At present, Xin Haicheng is regarded by everyone as “Shin Miyazaki”, and his box office is gradually approaching Hayao Miyazaki. A “Your name. Already let him go beyondAll previous predecessors jumped to become the second-best-selling animation director in Japanese history. Xin Haicheng, who is only in his 40s, can be said to have great potential in the future, not only to become “Shin Miyazaki”, but even to surpass Miyazaki in the future.
His career is at its peak
And being able to witness Xin Haicheng continue to create one inspiration after another is also the luck of our generation of animation fans.
今 敏 S-Class
The most talented and the most regrettable animated director in the history of Japanese animation is the young man who died early.
Today, most universities still choose Jin Min’s works as examples when teaching animation production, because Jin Min is too artistic. We can see tribute to him everywhere in other film and television works. At the beginning, the well-known Chinese Internet work “The Adventures of Li Xianji” paid tribute to “Millennium Actress”, and Nolan’s “Pirates of Dreams” paid tribute to “Red Pepper”. These are not enough. Every animated movie of Jin Min will win awards and nominations around the world, and truly achieve a 100% praise rate for each movie art.
The famous scene of “Millennium Actress”
Unfortunately, he left early in 2010. That year he was only 46 years old. It was a great time for a director. Before leaving, he left a sentence indifferently: “I want to give thanks to all the good things in the world, let go of my pen, and take a step.” But our audience only has to bear genius His works are eternal. This regret cannot be said in a few words.
Miyazaki S-Class
No need to introduce him any more, just list a few more data.
Half of the top ten Japanese animated film box office is Hayao Miyazaki.
As of 2013, Miyazaki has created nearly 200 billion yen at the box office.
He has won all category A movie awards worldwide, including two Oscars, and the Oscar Lifetime Achievement Award.
Maybe he will be surpassed one day, but now he is still the number one.
The above is the Japanese animation that we have counted so far in the art achievements, market response, and popular popularity.The film director hopes to help fans who want to understand the industry play a role in popular science, and also hope that all animation fans can resonate. Of course, we welcome all fans to help us continue to add this rating list, because as stated at the beginning of the article, our rating is still relatively subjective, and we look forward to more people participating in the discussion.
Japanese animated films are now more and more being introduced to the Chinese market. We believe that in the future, everyone will have more and more opportunities to watch animations. These directors are the biggest contributors behind outstanding animations. They are worthy of being watched They remember.
