Hello everyone! My name is Yuzuru Tachikawa, and I’m the director of the new original anime series DECA-DENCE.

My first original anime was a short animated work called Death Billiards, which was followed up by Death Parade, a series I also created and directed. I’ve also directed non-original series like Mob Psycho 100 and Detective Conan: Zero the Enforce.

Aside from series directing, I’ve worked as an episode director and storyboard artist on shows like Terror in Resonance and Bleach.

To give everyone time to send in their questions, this post is going up a little early. I’ll start answering questions at 7:30 p.m. CT.

EDIT: Hi again, everyone. [I’m back!](https://twit
