What were the most significant directorial debuts of the 2010s?

Masashi Ishihama: Shinsekai Yori
Hibiki Yoshizaki: ME!ME!ME!
Hiroko Utsumi: Free!
Taichi Ishidate: Kyoukai no Kanata
I guess that's it.

Kotaro Ishidate: gdgd fairies

>Hibiki Yoshizaki
That guy also made my favorite Japan Animater Expo - Kanon. Would really like to see him work on something bigger.

>>137194581
I thought Ishidate did Nichijou?

>>137201934
Nope, Tatsuya Ishihara who also directed Haruhi and After Story.

>>137201934
He was asst. director, does that count as a debut?

>>137194322

Why are there some 5 different versions of this, that all tell the same story, with reused footage.

>>137203344
There are three. First the creator was just allowed to make a one-episode OVA. Then she got to make an ONA series that are loose stories expanding on the whole thing. Finally since both of those were popular they decided to go with a full cour series.

If you want to check it out then just go with the series. The first episode is the same as the OVA with some minor changes.
>>137203285
No.

Yuki Yase.

Were Hiroko Utsumi and Tomohiko Ito the most acclaimed/succesful so far?

>>137203889
I think so.

>>137203889
>Tomohiko Ito
Don't know if acclaimed but probably the most financially succesful.

>>137203889
>Tomohiko Ito

Nobody on /a/ will ever recognize him because of SAO. And unfortunately Bokumachi will end up having the same treatment despite being a fantastic production so far (well, until last week's episode at least).
But if we're talking about success, I'm pretty sure Love Live's director was a first-timer.

I think Kyouhei Ishiguro should be recognized too for Shigatsu but his name was horribly tainted with m'lance n' m'asques.

Is it counts?

>>137204757
If he counts then Yukihiro Miyamoto should too.

>>137204757
Sequel never

>>137194322
You fucking think people around here pay attention to directors?

>>137204757
Sure. It's pretty impressive for what it is.

>http://www.cencoroll.com/
We only got this cool ass website. I blame Digishit Tri for this.
Well, the website says it still in production, though (i hope).

>>137204757
>>137204908
If 2009 counts then Oishi (Bakemonogatari) should count.

Tomino G-RECO

>>137205250
True.

>>137205250
K-On was 2009

>>137205467
>>137205250
>>137204757
Is 2010s such a hard concept to grasp? No, they don't count.

>>137205374
Kek

>>137204757
I swear to god if he doesn't announce anything this year. I will go over there to animate Cencoroll 2 myself for him.

>>137205838
calm your autism

>>137203280
According to a certain twitter celebrity, Ishidate was the one behind Nichijou and Ishihara was misleadingly credited for it.

>>137205838
Well, K-On!! was 2010, and K-On didn't really become the pinnacle of anime until K-On!!.

>>137206271
Is it like the whole Euphonium thing?

Boring and not really memorial.
Mirai had a cute design, though.

Okay okay, geez.

Thank god. Do it anon, for the sake of us.

And everything Ishihara directed that isn't shit.

>>137206767
Chu2 was cute but Chu22 and Phantom World are literally why?

>>137206767
Ishihara is like Shinbo. When a show is good it's always because of one of their underlings. When a show is bad it's always their fault.

>>137206853
>>137206939
Ishihara should be put on a leash.
