Asaka joined Madhouse after graduating from Osaka Designers' College. There his first job was working as an assistant director for Toshio Hirata on Phoenix: Yamato Chapter. Later he made his debut as an episode director on Yawara!, and soon after as a director on Pops. His notable works include Cardcaptor Sakura, Nana, Chihayafuru, and My Love Story!! among others.
Many of his works take on a female perspective for the telling of the story, with a feminine protagonist as the central focus. This has contributed to him becoming the main director at Madhouse for handling the more serious series featuring female characters or targeting the female market.
