posted on by Lynzee Loveridge
In work he has done since 2012, digital artist Kei Yoshida lists himself as a character animator for a Gegege no Kitarō television project on his LinkedIn profile. The project is listed above his most recent work on the Majin Bone anime series.
Shigeru Mizuki's supernatural manga Kitaro (Gegege no Kitarō) began in 1959 under the name Hakaba Kitarō. The stories center on an inhuman boy who straddles the line between the human and supernatural worlds.
The manga has spawned seven television series (including one Hakaba Kitarō anime), several animated movies, and two live-action films. The most recent anime adaptation (pictured right) aired in Japan in 2007.
