Wit studio: Mr. Imai Imai: let me guess another Levi scene Wit studio: yep Imai: *sad animator noises* All jokes aside he’s gotta love animating Levy if he’s so willing to animate just that one character so many times and for long periods

[@aymkinon]

underrated comment

[@derpynerdy6294]

actualy hes originally from production ig where most ex madhouse staff and directors came and then he transferrd to witstudio and only becoming a freelancer after season 1 of aot success after that he still kept ties with the studio which to me he will always be part of eit and not a freelancer

Imai is the master of action scenes with camera angles.

If Imai is the master, Nakamura is the grandmaster.

Nice video! Imai is such a fabulous animator. Though there is a little mistake: 1:57 - 2:00 is Naoki Yoshibi's work.

i forgot to mention him, the explosion and the colossal smashing is indeed his work. imai did the rest
