Hometown:Niigata Prefecture, JapanAspired to become an animator simply because he wanted to draw for a living. Later enrolled to and graduated from Tokyo Animator Gakuin. He then joined Magic Bus and debuted as an in-betweener in 1987 under the studio's name on God Bless Dancougar. Nakazawa soon left Magic Bus and went freelance. In 1993, he was involved in the establishment of Studio G-1, an animation studio founded by Masami Oobari. During his time there he participated in many of AIC's productions. Nakazawa got strongly influenced by Oobari during this time due to working under him on multiple occasions. Also unlike most animators at the time, Nakazawa wasn't really that shaped by Yoshinori Kanada's style, he was though, a huge fan of Ichirou Itano's and Yoshikazu Yasuhiko's.
