Retired Animator Kakoi Hiroshi Killed in the Earthquake
He was one of the producers of Macross II: Lovers Again and Moldiver. He was known as one of the key animators who created the episode 27 of Macross in 1982. The action scenes of the episode had made a great impact on the young animators at that time. Anno Hideaki and Suezen were among the key animators of the episode.
According to animator Onda Naoyuki, Kakoi had already retired from the anime industry.
