Well lets not go that far, but he's certainly one of the best web-gen animators in the industry. Examples of digital animation like the latest Naruto OP or something a bit older like Iso's Rahxephon episode makes me wonder about the sort of unique visuals that digital animation can bring to the table. I hope to see more animators make good use if digital animation in the future.
I was referring to the animation. KyoAni never really gets to vent out any of their talent. Horiguchi was the only one to break from their usual style in that CM.

I think he means that they generally try to limit the individuality in their animators' styles for the sake of greater conformity/consistency in their productions. I don't really have much of a problem with it myself, but I do understand why people would take issue with it, especially those in the 'sakuga' fandom where people enjoy being able to pick out animators they like and go "this cut was animated by such-and-such and this one by who's-it". Or maybe what >>413 said.

He'll make his glorious, long-awaited return in Photo Kano. Mark my words.

>>414 you know, Iso is now 48 years old.
I think he had his time, and he had the best time.
The new animators will always remember him, and we will always remember him,
as Iso, the greatest animator ever lived.
Well not necessarily. But in a way you could say that.
Nichijou was really my favorite show from KyoAni. They got to toy around so much stuff that it was really almost like breaking the typical KyoAni feel. Hyouka had that at times but majority it was the usual. Only time that felt quite unique was the this. http://puu.sh/2tL4B
Imaishi shouldn't even be in that triplet, because his style is pretty consistent and moderate, not like Yuasa or Shinbo.

Nah, Shinbo is just hit or miss. Ikuhara on the other hand is overrated as shit. Mamoru Hosoda > Kunihiko-chan.

Depends on what you consider moderate. Dead Leaves was fucking wacky everywhere.

Dead Leaves had a very consistent approach to its animation, settei, character desig, art direction etc. Compare that to Mind Game that goes to like a couple dozen animation techniques and styles.
