## Biography[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Takashi_Hashimoto&action=edit&section=1 "Edit section: Biography")]
After graduating university, Takashi became a freelancer and had worked in several studios, such as AIC, Studio Fantasia, D.A.S.T, Studio 88, etc. In 1991, he participated in the establishment of the freelance animator group "Miyabi". As a key animator, Takashi is peculiarly known for his explosion special effects. Rendering explosion, fire, smoke, and water in animations are his strengths. His drawing characteristics are obviously those grandiose-scale fragmentation explosions, thus he usually works as effect animation director in numerous anime.
In terms of his contribution in *Detective Conan*, for the anime, he was only responsible for the effects of two episodes, starting with [episode 1061](/wiki/Episode_1061 "Episode 1061"). For the movies, he began to serve as effect animation director ever since [movie 23](/wiki/Movie_23 "Movie 23").
