Earth Quaker!
My favorite animator is Masami Obari. I love his stylized character designs, which at their most extreme, usually turn the human form into something closer to the Eva units from Evangelion. He also likes to translate comic action into real world physics, vis-à-vis Terry Bogard destroying an entire building's rooftop with a single Power Geyser. These traits lend themselves well to working in Japan's robot animation industry, and he has lent his talent to several robot themed television series and video games over the years. Unfortunately, he's been pretty low key for a while now, with his most notable output of late being the Angle Blade series of (porn) OVA's. Well now he's finally been given a chance at the real deal. Masami Obari will produce the next Super Robot Wars anime series, which will be based around the OG storyline and characters. I personally can't wait to see who will be locked into a "knuckle bash" clash with the Altaisen's Revolver Stake during the climactic battle. Don't you dare change Obari!
