Tomomi Mochizuki (望月智充, Mochizuki Tomomi^?) (sometimes incorrectly romanized as Tomomichi Mochizuki) is an anime director and producer born on December 31, 1958 in Hokkaidō, Japan. He is married to animator Masako Gotō. Mochizuki sometimes uses the alias Gō Sakamoto (坂本郷, Sakamoto Gō^?) when writing screenplays.

While attending Waseda University, he joined the Waseda University Animation Association. In 1981, he began working for Ajia-do Animation Works. Mochizuki made his debut one year later when he acted as production director of the 1982 series Tokimeki Tonight. He went on to direct several of the magical girl series, including Magical Angel Creamy Mami. In 1986, he moved up to chief director with Hikari no Densetsu. He currently divides his time between directing, writing scripts, and acting as a series coordinator for various shows.
