Akemi Seki

Seki provided in-between animation for the original Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z television series, contributing structural animation work that bridges key frames and ensures smooth character movement. The animator elevated this foundational work to key animation status on multiple Dragon Ball Z theatrical films, including Bojack Unbound, Broly: The Legendary Super Saiyan, Broly: Second Coming, and Dead Zone, where more dynamic action sequences demanded sophisticated movement choreography.

Seki's animation career extended across prestigious projects including in-between animation for Castle in the Sky under Shindo Production and key animation contributions to theatrical releases like Little Nemo: Adventures in Slumberland and Royal Space Force: The Wings of Honneamise. The animator's Dragon Ball Z: The History of Trunks special also received key animation input, demonstrating consistent involvement across Dragon Ball's dramatic high points.
