Naoko Takeuchi




I love Manga drawings and that why for my next biography I have chosen to talk about Naoko Takeuchi, who is the artist behind one of my favourite amine show Sailor Moon. She is a Tokyo born and based animator who as a young child was heavily influenced by Manga drawings, driving her to join various clubs to learn more and has now influenced most of her work. She later went to University because she was told that it would be a good fall back by her father just in case she didn’t make it as an artist or animator.

Her first comic was Love Call which she wrote at the age of 19, when she began work for Kodansha and later received an award for. She then became an editor at Toki Meca, whilst working closely with PNP and giving lectures to students in her spare time.

Other pieces of her successful work include Love witch, a one shot story about a witch and her adventures and  Chocolate Christmas, which is a story about a girl who falls in love with a DJ over the Christmas period to name a few.
