Tomoya Iida

Iida worked as a key animator across 24 Dragon Ball Z episodes, handling primary character movement during critical saga moments including the Vegeta, Namek, Frieza, and early Android Sagas. He inbetweened 14 episodes of the original Dragon Ball series, laying groundwork for the franchise. His key animation appears on four films: Lord Slug, The World's Strongest, the original movie, and the Bardock special. Iida's extensive DBZ work captures the power progression from Vegeta's arrival through the Cell Games, representing the franchise's most dramatic evolution.

Beyond Dragon Ball, Iida provided key animation for Yu Yu Hakusho, another action-heavy shonen classic. His ability to convey explosive power and intense movement made him valuable across the industry's most demanding action sequences.
