Biography
Ishiguro was born in Fukui on September 8, 1977.[ 1] [ 2] Ishiguro was fond of Fujiko Fujio 's works growing up, especially Doraemon . When Ishiguro was in middle school, his dad rented Akira from a rental store and watched it with Ishiguro, who cites it as a major influence over his work.[ 3] Ishiguro later said that growing up he felt that becoming a manga artist was "the only way to go".[ 4] Ishiguro eventually graduated from Osaka University of Arts in 2001.[ 5] [ 6]
Just prior to graduation, Ishiguro submitted the one-shot Hero to Kodansha 's Monthly Afternoon magazine, which won the Afternoon Shiki Award [ja ] in 2000. Soon after, he left Monthly Afternoon and published one-shots and short series in other magazines.[ 3] [ 6] In 2005, Ishiguro launched And Yet the Town Moves , which received an anime adaptation.[ 7] In 2018, Ishiguro returned to Monthly Afternoon with Heavenly Delusion , which also received an anime adaptation.[ 8]
