Hisashi Mori spinoff school lineage

The Hisashi Mori Lineage 

Imamura School
Osamu Dezaki > Ryo Imamura
Kazuki Kawata

*Ryo Imamura’s school remains the animation school somehow closest to Osamu Dezaki’s overall legacy. It’s so unnervingly close to all of Dezaki’s styles even with divergent succeeding variations, that it still leans much more towards a Mushi Pro-indie lineage, which remains obvious in the sheer intensity of the successor’s own liquid style. 

Hisashi Mori School
Hisashi Mori (aka Hisashi Nakayama) 
Hiroaki Takagi 
Tatsuo Yamada 

*Oddly enough, whereas Shinbo did do occasional work at Toei Animation, whereas Yuichiro Sueyoshi funnily enough has somehow more in common with Norimoto Tokura and Shinsaku Kozuma even in spite of obvious differences. Thus, Kondo and especially Maeda are linked together more so than we think, resulting in an explosion of highly experimental animators decades later. Though still somehow related to the Tokura Yamashita school, all of them remain unique animators either way, it’s just that those two have become quite more well known internationally than their senior.

Although she’s confusingly called...
