Despite working since the 1990's, he didn't truly become noticed until he did effects work for 2005's ''Film/MeatballMachine'', which received praise for its graphic, surreal effects on a low budget. Since then, he's worked on almost every J-sploitation film there is. In 2008, he would release his directoral debut, ''Film/TokyoGorePolice'', based on his 1995 short film ''Anatomia Extinction''. The film received praise for its impressive gore effects and satire, and has been back and forth between effects work and directing/writing.
