TATSUKI (Japanese: たつき), usually written in English as Tatsuki, was the director and lead writer of the 2017 Kemono Friends anime. He is the leader of a small, independent animation circle known as irodori. Tatsuki is credited with the success and subsequent revival of the Kemono Friends multimedia franchise, which was widely considered a project almost already over prior to its anime release. He, along with series creator Mine Yoshizaki, is held in high acclaim by fans for his impact on the project.
Resignation from anime production
On September 25th, 2017, Tatsuki announced in a Tweet that he were no longer part of the production of the anime, that he heard that it's due to a notice roughly from around Kadokawa
, one of the license holders of the Kemono Friends Project. Later on, the production committee of the Kemono Friends anime announced that the animation studio, Yaoyorozu, resigned from the production after declining a request to consult all parties involved before using Kemono Friends property.
