Between K-On, Tamako Love Story, and most recently, Koe no Katachi, Naoko Yamada has amassed a portfolio some could make a career out of. Her remarkably quick journey from in-betweener to studio leader is almost unheard of in the industry. Yamada's unique style reminiscent of techniques you'd find in live action more so than anime gives her work a lifelike quality, which aims to display the emotion, thrill, and magic of the everyday. Today, I profile the career of my favorite active anime directer, Naoko Yamada, to see how her style has evolved over time.
