These drawings represent who I am. I am interested in Anime, Enka, and Japanese History. These artworks were based on the animus that I have known, my imagination, and my originality.

My artworks include Anpanman(アンパンマン), Mighty Cat Masked Niyander(ニャニがニャンダー　ニャンダーかめん), Crayon Shinchan(クレヨンしんちゃん), and Doraemon(ドラえもん). My topics range from reenactments to travel. My enka fan is Saburo Kitajima(北島三郎), a mid-70s singer from Hokkaido.

Mighty Cat Masked Niyander was aired between Feb. 2000 and Sep. 2001. As the Niyander Kamen series reaches its 20th Anniversary in 2020, I thought about reviving this show.

I wanted to be an Enka singer-songwriter. As I have known that there are several non-Japanese Enka singers, there are no known non-Japanese Enka songwriters. Enka is a declining Japanese song genre to the younger audiences. I thought about introducing Enka theme songs into animus, especially Mighty Cat Masked Niyandar, where the first opening theme song would be “Niyander Kamen Ondo(ニャンダーかめん音頭).” I thought about being a disciple of Saburo Kitajima to get a head start on my career.

I knew people like Miyamoto Musashi and Sakamoto Ryoma. These people were samurais who contributed to Japanese society.
