Appreciate animation pls

Osamu Tanabe is Nr.1

I think when it comes to revolutionary realism and character acting, it's Tanabe.

Although maybe Iso is better than Tanabe because he can literally animate anything, from action and FX to slow paced character acting.

I have never seen Tanabe work on some heavy action.

 Honda, Iso, Inoue and Ohira are the most flexible animators so they come after Tanabe in my opinion.

Tatsuyuki Tanaka would have been one of the best but he is not active anymore.

I used to like Norio Matsumoto's work a lot, but I think he is getting a bit tired lately, I'm not that impressed by his new works.
