Instagram
Influenced by Hiroyuki Nakano's commercials and music videos, he studied video art at the Musashino Art University, joining Gento Matsumoto's company Sal Brunei as a graphic designer. He soon changed his occupation to the animation industry, having aspired to be an animation director since his childhood.
He initially joined Group TAC where he worked as episode director and storyboard artist under the guidance of Mitsuru Hongou. His first major role was as mechanical/creature designer on Chikyuu Bouei Kazoku, working alongside Shouji Kawamori and Kazutaka Miyatake, with whom he would collaborate profusely afterwards.
He later moved to studio Bones landing as assistant director for Yutaka Izubuchi's RahXephon. The two became close collaborators, with Kyouda soon taking the leading role on the RahXephon: Pluralitas Concentio movie.
Soon after, he directed Eureka Seven, incorporating his love for music and different sub-cultures into mecha anime.
