Due to a fire that occurred in Nikkatsu's film warehouse before the war, only two movies exist, "Rojo no Reikon" (Souls on The Road) as an initial study product and "Muteki" which he shot in Shinko Cinema, so he is said to be one of the most difficult directors to evaluate.
戦前の日活のフィルム倉庫の火災などにより、初期の習作『路上の霊魂』と新興キネマで撮った『霧笛』の二作しか現存していないため、最も評価の困難な監督の一人として知られる。
