Hironori Tanaka

Tanaka Hironori is a Japanese freelance animator who started his career at Eagle Nest. He was born in Aichi Prefecture, Japan.

A rising star on Toei's productions in the mid 00s, Tanaka first drew attention for the wild and imaginative fight sequences in PreCure Max Heart and Splash Star. Following this he expanded his scope and took up work on productions outside of Toei, showing that fights aren't everything he can do. His variety on running sequences, often showing an effiminate touch, as well as the particular attention to hair, down to all little strains and often involving a hairdo having a life of its own, are some of Tanaka's most outstanding feats.

By his peers, Tanaka has been highly praised for his speed and amount of work he is willing to take on.
