(マッム三四郎, Mahha SanshirŠ) with creator Minoru Kume. In

1962, Kuri co-founded the animation production company Tatsunoko

Productions with his brothers Kenji and Tatsuo. Since then, he has

worked in many different roles, including as an animation producer, in

planning and design, and as a director.Kuri was appointed the managing

director of Tatsunoko Pro subsidiary Anime Friend in 1977. In 1987,

due to the retirement of his brother Kenji, Kuri became the president

of Tatsunoko Pro. Anime Friend was dissolved in 1990. Tatsunoko Pro
