Yasuhiro Kamimura

Kamimura Yasuhiro is a 2D designer. He worked for Gainax, and had been involved with the future founders of the studio since being fellow staff at Daicon3 in 1981. He pursued a more regular career, working in the research department of NTT for a couple of years before joining Gainax. There he managed legal issues, copyrights, etc., but still infrequently contributed to the creative process.

In February 2010 he left Gainax together with his wife Kamimura Noriko, and in March of the same year the couple established Groundworks: - a company responsible for licensing, copyright management, merchandise development and sales, and other similar issues related to the Evangelion franchise and Studio Khara anime. Kamimura Yasuhiro became the company's representative director.

He's known to be a hardcore geek, collecting anime-related goods such as Gunpla kits and keeping them in his garage.
