Yasuji Murata
Yasuji Murata (村田安司, Murata Yasuji, 24 January 1896, Yokohama, Japan – 2 November 1966) was a pioneering animator who helped develop the art of anime in Japan. Studying the animation techniques of Sanae Yamamoto,[1] Murata produced dozens of mostly educational films at the Yokohama Cinema studio featuring such characters as Momotarō and Norakuro. Along with Noburō Ōfuji, he was renowned as a master of cutout animation.[2] Among his students were such animators as Yoshitarō Kataoka.

gollark: Wow, my internet connection is very terrible right now.
gollark: I see.
gollark: Filtering for programmers is one thing, but filtering out "simps" seems rather orthogonal.
gollark: Maybe you should be clearer about what you're actually trying to filter? And have separate things for each criterion?EDIT: and explicitly making a high-effort filter is possibly not good as it may drive away people who are busy who you'd otherwise like, although if it's just "compile some C" it's probably fine.
gollark: I should reuse and actually finish the thing I was going to port my "IQ test" to.
