Keiichiro Kawaguchi (川口 敬一郎, Kawaguchi Keiichirō, born January 22) is a Japanese animator and director born in Kawasaki, Kanagawa.
Kawaguchi got his start at Ashi Productions and has worked as a key animator and animation director, as well as episode director for many projects.
Initially, the OVA Pinky:St was supposed to be his first directorial work, but due to production delays, the TV series MÄR was aired before it, resulting in it being his first directorial work instead.
[1] Kawaguchi is regarded as a quick worker and often directs two or three projects at a time.
He enjoys collecting figurines and character goods, and his work desk is crammed with toys.
