Biography
Katsuhiro Shimizu is a Japanese animator credited as an animation director and key animator, with a recorded filmography of more than 200 productions in the Japanese film and TV database allcinema [1]. He is named as one of four animation directors on episode 23 of 3-gatsu no Lion, per the show's own official staff listing [2]. Beyond this specific credit, further animation-director attributions reported for him elsewhere have not been independently verified and are not repeated here. No birthdate or other personal biographical detail has surfaced in available sources. It is also worth noting that at least one other animator shares this same name in Japanese industry databases, so third-party credit attributions for "Shimizu Katsuhiro" should be treated with some caution.
