Ogata is the director for the "Dark Moon" series. He has changed his name from Hiroaki Date (his real name) to Ogata with the production of Dark Moon to differentiate himself from his well known father (who directed the original "Tsukigomori"), who he has a huge inferiority complex about. With this new series, he hopes to escape his father's shadow by creating a better version of "Tsukigomori" in "Dark Moon."
