In this article, we'd like to introduce you to Hiroshi, the author of this highly addictive and well-known series, "Asuka-chan's Sailor Suit." Thinking about the author who created such a fascinating work is an essential element for us to understand it more deeply, so readers who want to know more about the appeal of this work should definitely read this article to find out more about the author, Hiroshi.
Analysis Based on Work Trends, etc.
In this article, I will not simply summarize basic information about the author of this work, Hiroshi, but will analyze what kind of manga artist he is based on the trends in his work. To truly understand a manga artist's unique characteristics, it is best to analyze the message conveyed in their work, as well as the artist's habits and strengths, to gain a deeper understanding of the artist.
Manga Artists: Background, Story, or Characters?
As mentioned above, when exploring an artist's tendencies from their work, there's one thing you should pay particular attention to. That is, which of the following aspects does the artist focus on most: background, story, or characters? A recent example of a work focused on background is "Laid-Back Camp," while an example of a work focused on story is "Attack on Titan." Since a work is led by a single author, simply looking at which of these three aspects the artist specializes in will allow you to easily discern the artist's tendencies: "This artist specializes in background."
A Manga Artist with an Overwhelming Focus on Characters
From these three perspectives, which element does this work specialize in? Those who have read this work and are avid readers may already know. Yes, this work is undoubtedly a work that specializes in "characters." The movements of the characters, who are depicted most prominently throughout the work, are depicted with great delicacy, and when compared to other works, you will likely notice the detailed character portrayals in this work in particular.
Characters with Amazing Movement
This work particularly focuses on the character's movements, particularly in its character drawing. Unlike anime, manga requires each individual drawing, making movement particularly difficult to portray. Characters cannot be portrayed vividly unless each individual movement is carefully depicted.
It seems like the characters might overlap, but they don't
This work beautifully depicts such complex character movements. Therefore, even if the characters' personalities are similar, the subtle differences in their movements create distinct impressions. Isn't it fair to say that the composition of this work's creator, Hiroshi,'s greatest strength?
Basic Information about Hiroshi
In the above article, we introduced the characteristics of this work and its creator, Hiroshi, as a manga artist. From here, we'd like to summarize and introduce some of the information about Hiroshi that is generally available.
Started his career about 10 years ago
His oldest confirmed work is "Aquarium," which was serialized in 2009. Of course, it takes an incredibly long time for a work to be serialized, so his career as a manga artist must have started much earlier. However, for the purposes of this article, we will consider 2009, the earliest known date, as Hiroshi's debut.
"Aquarium"
"Aquarium," Hirosi's debut work, seems to be based on the hobby of creating aquariums, arranging fish tanks. His current work, "Asa-chan's Sailor Suit," also features many scenes of fishing in ponds and swimming, including ocean bathing. Perhaps his beautiful depictions of water stem from his experience with "Aquarium." In any case, this work offers insight into Hirosi's origins, so fans of his work should definitely take a look at this work.
"Akebityan's Sailor Suit" is a hit
Though Hiroshi has released works such as "Aquarium," it seems that "Akebityan's Sailor Suit" was his first major hit. "Aquarium" was also a very appealing work, but as a newer work, "Akebityan's Sailor Suit" is a more polished work.
Also active on pixiv
Though Hirosi is likely busy every day as a popular manga artist, he also seems to be actively posting illustrations on pixiv. Hirosi is particularly adept at depicting the movements of people and characters, so his illustrations alone are sure to be enjoyable. Readers who have been captivated by Hirosi's style after watching this work should definitely take a look.
Take a look at social media
So far, we've summarized information about Hiroshi, the creator of this work. What did you think? Have you become interested in Hiroshi? If so, why not follow up on not only the work "Asa-chan's Sailor Suit" but also the author himself?
Currently on Twitter
In addition to pixiv, Hiro also posts information on Twitter. Readers who want to keep up with the creator of this work should definitely follow him.
Many illustrations posted
Hiroshi's Twitter account in particular is packed with illustrations, so just following him will allow you to enjoy his charming character illustrations. Illustrations of characters other than "Asa-chan's Sailor Uniform" also appear, so it's especially worth following for fans of his works, such as "Aquarium."
Twitter is a convenient way to gather anime information
In addition to illustrations, the site also regularly posts information about the anime and manga, so readers interested in learning more about this work should definitely check it out.
Reasons to look forward to his future activities
So far, we've summarized Hiroshi's past works and the trends in his currently serialized works. While Hiroshi has always been a noteworthy manga artist, I believe he will become even more so in the future, so we'll continue to keep an eye on him.
He's still only been active for a short time!
If you consider that his debut was in 2009, when "Aquarium" was serialized, it's only been about 13 years. It's safe to say he'll continue to take on new challenges in the future.
She's on a roll with her first anime adaptation
And most importantly, the anime "Akebityan's Sailor Suit" is scheduled to air in 2022. Since this is the first time her work has been adapted into an anime, surely her enthusiasm for the series is especially high this year?
A manga artist worth keeping your ears to
He's definitely one of those manga artists whose work is definitely worth keeping your ears to. I'll continue to keep an eye on Hirosi's work in the future.
First, enjoy the anime "Asa-chan's Sailor Suit"!
First of all, let's focus on the anime "Asa-chan's Sailor Suit," which will be broadcast this year. The promotional video and other content are currently available on YouTube, so readers who are interested should definitely check it out.
How close will it be to the manga version?
I'm particularly interested to see how closely the animation can capture the characters in this work. Character movement is the film's greatest draw, so I'm curious to see how closely the animation can capture the captivating character portrayals in this work.
Differences Between the Anime and Manga
Watching the anime trailer, I noticed that Asa-chan's eye color, for example, is slightly different from the original. While this point may be controversial, I personally hope they focus on character portrayals that are unique to anime. In that respect, the trailer also gives a glimpse of the unique ingenuity of the anime, so perhaps we can expect the same from the main story.
Summary
What did you think? This time, I've summarized Hiroshi, the creator of "Asa-chan's Sailor Suit." The appeal of Hiroshi's art is his depictions of characters that appear to be truly moving. I think we'll be able to see a lively Asu-chan in the anime version, so I'm looking forward to continuing to keep an eye on Hiroshi's fascinating character portrayals.
