Brilliant character animator, and I adore his more rugged art style and shading. His OP and ED work are awesomely stylish as well. I didn't even know he directed a full show, but that puts Gungrave way higher on my priority to watch list.

That last episode of Gungrave was phenomenal. Hats off to this guy.

Episode 14 of Cowboy Bebop stood out to me quite a bit; I wonder if Toshiyuki's storyboarding plays a large part in that? I don't recognize any of his other works, so I can't really say.
