Hiroya Oku

Born on 16 September in 1967, in Fukuoka, Japan, Hiroya Oku is a seinen mangaka, creator of Hen, Zero one, Gantz and Meteru no Kimochi. He has been very criticized, accepted, admired and renamed. He is currently working on the third Gantz phase, his most famous and great job. His mangas often contain scenes of explicit violence and too much blood, as well as light sexual situations, that is why, they are only for adults.

He won the second prize of the youth manga awards in 1988; under the penname Yahiro Kuon, that was his beginning, and after that, he started working on youth jump magazine. He was the first on drawing the “trajectory” demarcated from the nipples to express breast movements, and, since there, many others hentai authors used that invention.

In an interview on 2005, Hiroya admitted that he loves girls with great breasts, and that he has the hobby of drawing dogs. In one of the latest chapters from Meteru no Kimochi, it reveals that this, Gantz and two series called “hen”, are developed in the same fiction world.

I admire him, because he is something like a “crazy genius” of fiction stories, and Gantz is one of the best science-fiction mangas of the last time. It is freaking awesome!
