Also known as Hirohito Ochi and Chiko Uonji.

Koujin Ochi (於地 紘仁 Ochi Kōjin?), real name Hirohito Ochi (越智 浩仁 Ochi Hirohito?), is a Japanese anime director, technical director, and screenplay writer. He also uses rarely the alias Chiko Uonji (宇恩寺 稚子 Uonji Chiko?). He directed Detective Conan from episode 505 to 666, and later episodes 678 to 679.

He is mainly active in animation works done by TMS Entertainment and Bandai Namco Filmworks.

Biography

Ochi entered the Utsunomiya University Faculty of Education (宇都宮大学教育学部) in 1982, and even then, he was already active in the animation industry; he was affiliated with the animation research association of his university. Moreover, he was the person who held a screening event of Space Runaway Ideon (伝説巨神イデオン). In 1986, he dropped out of school during the academic year; thereafter, he began to work under his real name, Hirohito Ochi (越智 浩仁). In 1988, he served as the production advancement of the anime Topo Gigio (トッポ・ジージョ).

Photo of Koujin Ochi.

In 1996, he joined the production of the Detective Conan anime, and served as the storyboard artist and episode director for the 4th episode The Coded Map of the City Case, until the 2nd part of The Convenience Store Trap in 2003, Ochi temporarily quit the production (during this period, he had also written some screenplays for the anime, they were highly famed among the fandom as well). Starting 2006, he altered his name to Koujin Ochi (於地 紘仁), and became active again. He returned to the Detective Conan anime production team in 2008, first he did storyboard for Clash of Red and Black (Disguise). Since episode 505, Masato Sato stepped down from the anime director role, so Ochi replaced him as the director until episode 666 also under his alias Koujin Ochi. He was replaced by Yasuichiro Yamamoto in 2012 starting episode 667 (excluding episodes 678-679, which is mystery tour episodes and Koujin Ochi is still in charge of them when director change took place).

After taking over the director role, Ochi first invited the staff who went to work on the movies, during the Masato Sato era, back to the anime production. Art director was altered, and stabilized; the color design was also changed to Shigenobu Kaihoko and became brighter; Masatomo Sudo became the anime character design again, working along with Junko Yamanaka. Ochi did the storyboard for several openings and endings during this time, performing the recovery for the severe alteration in the staff team from the Masato Sato era. Nonetheless, the anime production remain chaotic; outsourcing has made many episodes become unstable and the quality dropped significantly. It is not until 2011 that he first officially introduced the "Animation Supervisor" role for the anime, (the credit used was "Chief Animator" (チーフアニメーター ?) and "Key Animator" (キーアニメーター ?)); Seiji Muta was promoted by him for that role.[Note 1]

Apart from his director work, Ochi is also an excellent screenwriter, and has written many renowned episodes for the series; A Cursed Mask Coldly Laughs is the well-known case he wrote. After 2010, he began to use the pseudonym Chiko Uonji (宇恩寺 稚子) when serving as the screenwriter. After stepping down as director, Ochi's activity in Detective Conan decreased drastically, and he merely served as the screenwriter for Eyewitness Testimony Seven Years Later in 2018.

Just like a lot of mystery cases found in Detective Conan, the two aliases used by Ochi have an interesting origin based on his real name: Koujin Ochi shares the same pronunciation as his real name but written in different ways; Chiko Uonji is the rearrangement of his real name's romanji (Ochi Koujin → Uonji Chiko).

Style analysis

The acclaimed "cursed mask" case by him.

Ochi is one of the veteran staff (like Kazunari Kouchi and Junichi Miyashita) who have joined the anime production since the series began to broadcast. Although he did not write a lot of cases for the anime, most of his cases are of high quality. He is sometimes referred to as the John Dickson Carr of the Detective Conan screenwriters, because his style is just like Carr's, most consisting of locked-rooms, impossible crimes, ingenious tricks; which is a symbolisation of Shinhonkaku Detective Fiction (新本格派推理). He is also good at mingling ghost legends into his stories, and depicting supporting characters - he has created lots of memorable characters to his audience, for example Shingo Nachi, Toshiya Tadokoro, Shimogasa Twins, Touya Aikawa, and Otaro Minakitaya etc.

His style is very similar to that of those mystery writers from the golden age; even the Detective Conan original author Gosho Aoyama thought that the trick Ochi devised in The Case of the Furisode at the Hidden Hot Spring on a Snowy Night is fairly interesting - according to the producer, Michihiko Suwa, who disclosed this information in an interview with Minami Takayama[1].
