Does anyone watch Nipponese puppetkino or is it not anime enough for you?

I liked Thunderbolt Fantasy. Is this comparable OP?

Possibly. I haven't seen House of Flame yet because the only subs I've found are Russian, but it's probably somewhere on bakabt.

Found a collection of his stuff on Nyaa, so I'll try converting the shorter films to webms and uploading them here.

Yes, it is like Thunderbolt Fantasy.

I'm a week late, but here is Kawamoto's Oni. I'll try uploading some more after this but thanks to vp9's encoding times and my upload speeds this could take a while.

Most of his stuff is around the 19-25 minute range. Maybe telling people to torrent his stuff from nyaa instead of uploading six million webms makes more sense.

Briar-Rose or The Sleeping Beauty

This one is a concept by Kyōko Kishida (she narrated Vampire Princess Miyu and Princess Tutu, but among filmfags she's most famous for her role in Woman in the Dunes) and is a co-production with a Czechoslovakian studio, so it's pretty different from everything I've posted here. I don't like it very much, honestly.

Self Portrait

And that's the last of it until I find Hisakata no Amefutakami somewhere. It's pretty far from most anime (except Thunderbolt Fantasy, I guess) but I hope some of you guys enjoyed this.

If you're interested in seeing more of Kihachiro Kawamoto's work, he made two full-length puppet movies titled Rennyo and His Mother and The Book of the Dead, along with two NHK series adapting Romance of the Three Kingdoms and The Tale of the Heike. He also organized and contributed two segments to Winter Days, a collection of short films from animators around the world adapting a famous linked poem led by the famous poet Bashō.

If you've just arrived in the thread and want to see everything in release order:
