Hajime Yatate (矢立 肇, Yatate Hajime) is a pseudonym for the collective contributions of the Sunrise animation staff. "Hajime Yatate" is considered to be named after a quote of Matsuo Bashō's Oku no Hosomichi: 是を矢立の初めとして、行く道なほ進まず (Kore o yatate no hajime toshite, Ikumichi naho susumazu) This was the first time I used my travel writing implements, and I was still reluctant to venture farther.
