Sorry, I forgot to TL since I'm not 100% on it but it goes something like:
Q: When animators like Itano came into contact with "Realistic Animation" it was through Kanada wasn't it? From this point of view, what's your view of Kanada's animation?
Muraki: Well he had amazing strength. After watching the MSG Trilogy films, I spent my summer watching Zambot and Daitarn. Zambot at times was amazing. /*I don't get the next bit Something about how Muraki he believes Itano's work on Gundam was influenced by Kanada's work on Zambot*/. Muraki also speaks how Itano once said he studied Kanada's animation frame by frame to analyse it.
Hashimoto: Kanada had a surprisingly realistic flair to his aniamtion in his early years, and then he moved on to more stylish animation in his later years. He was able to skilfully draw both ways. That's why I think it's a given Itano was influenced by Kanada. In short, Kanada's "Realistic Animation" was inherited by Itano while, in the grand scheme of things his stylish work evlovled into the popular "Kanada style" copied by many. I saw both sides of Kanada's animation and absorbed both sides myself.
Q: By the way, where would Masami Obari fall into the scheme of things?
Muraki: This is my own analysis but I think he's close to Kanada. However rather than say he's between "Itano & Kanada" I think it's better to say he was between "(Hideaki) Anno and Kanada". After all Obari's way of detailing shadows and adding intense detail in his early years was something inspired by Anno.
Hashimoto: Yes, in his early years he drew exceptionaly close to the detail found in concept art(settei)
Muraki: Furthermore, rather than to say he's close to Kanada's form, I think he drew stronger influence from Masahito Yamashita. The modulation in his timing was definately closer to that of Yamashita.

Which is probably what the creator of the other video with Kanada animators had in mind. At least I think he did otherwise it wouldn't pan out like this
