Tsugawa recently debuted as a director under the pseudonym Makino Masahiko with his film ''[[Nezu no Ban]]''.

Legend has it that Tsugawa was so awed by the director while watching him at work as a young child that he asked if he could use ''Makino'' as his last name should he ever be a director, because of the similarities of the first names.
