Career

Fukuda joined Sunrise in 1979. He was one of the creators of the Brave series of shows and likely would have directed the ninth Brave series, Baan Gaan, had it been fully produced. ^{[citation needed]} He was a core planning and production staffer on Exkaiser, Fighbird, and Da Garn, before leaving to focus on Cyber Formula. After the ending of Cyber Formula, he worked on the widely praised GEAR Fighter Dendoh series, and then work on Gundam SEED in the year following. He has also worked on Victory Gundam and Metal Armor Dragonar in a storyboard capacity, and likely worked on other Sunrise franchises in a more subordinate role.

Marriage

Fukuda is married to Chiaki Morosawa.

Though Morosawa did not write the anime story until Cyber Formula Saga, a 1996 anime, Fukuda domestically consulted to her about the series since the TV series of Cyber Formula, the first anime series Fukuda directed. Now she is a writer mainly for his works, like Gear Fighter Dendoh, Gundam SEED and SEED Destiny. The Gundam SEED movie is on hold because she has taken ill and cannot write it.
