The founder of Robot Communications, he was responsible for the production of many of Japan's most successful and acclaimed movies from the 21st century, including Bayside Shakedown 2 (2003), Stand by Me Doraemon (2014), and Godzilla Minus One (2023).

[2] In June 1986, he founded the Japanese film production studio Robot Communications, starting work on graphics design and television commercials in 1987.

[1][2] Robot became a leading Japanese studio in the 2000s, making some of the biggest titles in Japan and overseas (all of which produced by Abe), including box office record holder Bayside Shakedown 2 (2003), and Takashi Yamazaki's Always: Sunset on Third Street (2005).

[1] Comic Book Resources stated that while Abe has produced some of the most successful Japanese pictures of all time, his "impact and business savvy is perhaps best captured in comments about one of his newest productions, Godzilla Minus One".

[6] In 2015, he received the Animation Lifetime Achievement at the 24th Japan Movie Critics Awards for his work on Stand by Me Doraemon.
