The president of Studio Trigger, Masahiko Otsuka, will be a guest at Otakon 2023, according to Otakorp Inc. He’s also an accomplished director and script writer.
Initially working in the live-action film industry, Otsuka joined the animation industry as assistant director for Studio Ghibli’s “Pom Poko” in 1992. He then moved on to Studio GAINAX, participating in many acclaimed titles, such as “Neon Genesis Evangelion” (episode director) and “GURREN LAGANN” (co-director).
In 2011, Otsuka and Hiroyuki Imaishi left GAINAX to establish their own animation company, Studio TRIGGER. Otsuka has taken part in many of TRIGGER’s flagship titles, such as “KILL la KILL,” “Little Witch Academia,” “PROMARE,” and most recently “Cyberpunk: Edgerunners.”
Otakon 2023 will be held from July 28 to July 30 at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center.
