Kunihiko Ikuhara (幾原邦彦), born December 21, 1964, in Tokushima, Japan, is arguably the most well-known Sailor Moon director. His signatures seem to be an offbeat sense of humor, like in the episode "Loved and Chased! Luna's Worst Day Ever," and a refusal to shy away from themes others might feel too "dark" for a children's show, as shown in "Usagi's Everlasting Wish! A New Reincarnation" and "Death of Uranus and Neptune? Talismans Appear."
The series which many believe to be his defining or signature work is Shoujo Kakumei Utena. Themes from his original idea for the Sailor Moon SuperS movie were later used in this series.[1]
