Yamashita is to Shippuden what Norio Matsumoto was to the Original Naruto-- But probably even more so considering Yamashita's mark on the series continues to this day and inspired so many similar styles.

[@InitiaLeo]

Matsumoto Norio is even more so rather than the other way around, as his mark still continues in Boruto to this day and he inspired even more.

[@everybody7576]

His style of animation fits the Naruto series perfectly in my opinion, which is probably the reason why he is considered a legendary animator, the way he moves the cameras and the attention to detail to the fighting style is just amazing. Legendary

[@OneStepToDeath420]

Sakuga is life. It releases huge amounts of dopamine in my brain.

[@johnlorenzdiaz]

Bro his coming back for BORUTO SERIES episode 293 (last episode of boruto)

[@johnsmith-ck4qt]

They are all amazingly animated scenes, but are you sure though that they were all done by Hiroyuki Yamashita? Animation credits on Naruto wiki says different things. For example 85 ep was animated by Hirofumi Suzuki.. And Killer Bee vs Sasuke as well by some different artist..

[@purplegethsakuga4245]

You shouldn't be using english wiki's for animator crediting, they're woefully misinformed to the point where its clear they don't even have a basic grasp of how animation works. The credits for episode 85 are: 脚本・絵コンテ・演出：黒津安明 脚本協力（忍術創案）：彦久保雅博 作画監督：鈴木博文 原画：西尾鉄也　松本憲生　松竹徳幸　山下宏幸 　　　 朝井聖子　清水恵子　兵渡勝　川内智子　篠田知宏 　　　 松本顕吾　夘野一郎　山下清悟　島崎知美　丸山泰英 　　　 星和伸　吉木正行　河野紘一郎　名倉智史　徳田夢ノ介 　　　 津熊健徳 Hirofumi Suzuki was the animation director. Including Hiroyuki Yamashita, there were 20 key animators who contributed to it. Based on the style it's clearly Yamashita's work.
