Shinichi Watanabe

Shinichi Watanabe should not be confused with the similarly-named Shinichiro Watanabe, director of Cowboy Bebop and Samurai Champloo (born September 6, 1964) is a Japanese anime director. He is most well-known for his over-the-top adaptation of Rikdo Koshi's Excel Saga, in which he appears as the character Nabeshin. In addition to his appearance in Excel Saga and Puni Puni Poemy, his likeness has also appeared as NB in Tenchi Muyo! GXP, Inu-Afro in Dotto Koni-Chan and in a bit role in Mahoromatic. In addition, an unmistakeable cameo of Nabeshin can be seen in Nurse Witch Komugi, although Watanabe had nothing to do with that project.
