Morio Asaka

浅香守生

Asaka joined [Madhouse](https://anilist.co/studio/11/) after graduating from Osaka Designers' College. There his first job was working as an assistant director for [Toshio Hirata](https://anilist.co/staff/117533/) on [Phoenix: Yamato Chapter](https://anilist.co/anime/2999/). Later he made his debut as an episode director on [Yawara!](https://anilist.co/anime/691/), and soon after as a director on [Pops](https://anilist.co/anime/2093). His notable works include [Cardcaptor Sakura](https://anilist.co/anime/232/), [Nana](https://anilist.co/anime/877/), [Chihayafuru](https://anilist.co/anime/10800/), and [My Love Story!!](https://anilist.co/anime/20946/) among others. Many of his works take on a female perspective for the telling of the story, with a feminine protagonist as the central focus. This has contributed to him becoming the main director at Madhouse for handling the more serious series featuring female characters or targeting the female market.
