After making several films for children, a cartoon film "Tatsu no ko Taro" (Taro the Dragon Boy) and "Taiyo no ko" (Teda No Fua) based on Kenjiro HAITANI's novel, in 1983 he attracted public attention by releasing "Anshitsu" (Dark Room) featuring Rie KIMURA, an adult movie from Nikkatsu (written as にっかつ instead of 日活 at that time), where he used to belong.
アニメーション『龍の子太郎』、灰谷健次郎原作の『太陽の子』と子ども向けの作品が続いたのち、1983年には古巣日活（当時にっかつ）のロマンポルノ作品で、木村理恵主演の『暗室(映画)』を発表して話題を呼ぶ。
