Profiles

Hatsu Akiko
Born in Ishikawa prefecture, Hatsu first worked as assistant to her manga artist sister, Kai Yukiko, then after Kai’s death, Hatsu later debuted in ALLAN in 1981 with ‘Nami no banka’ (Elegy of the waves). She published works in Grapefruit, Petit Flower, and other ladies’ magazines, and currently works primarily for Nemuki and Flowers.
Her seminal works, which include ‘Uruwashi no Eikoku shirizu’ (Beautiful England series) and ‘Uryudo yume banashi’ (Uryudo dream tales), are highly acclaimed for their unique world view and brilliant style, as they move back and forth between typical Japanese elements and foreign atmosphere, and the worlds of fantasy and reality.
