About the author

OHKUBO Atsushi

Atsushi Ōkubo (大久保 篤 Ōkubo Atsushi?), also romanized as Atsushi Ohkubo, is a Japanese manga author and fantasy artist known for his work on the manga series Soul Eater, which has been adapted into an anime. Okubo worked as an assistant under Rando Ayamine, on the manga series Get Backers. He also created artwork for various cards for the Lord of Vermillion game.

Atsushi Ōkubo was not a model student and was more attracted to drawing than to learning. At the age of 20, after finishing studies at a manga school where he met Rando Ayamine, the author of Get Backers, he became Rando Ayamine's assistant for two years. Finally, he won a competition at Square Enix's Gangan magazine with his first manga series B.Ichi and it was published for four volumes. After the end of his last manga, he created Soul Eater, still for Square Enix's Gangan magazine, which brought him worldwide success.

I'm still enjoying the story and the rather unusual art. The story is not always clear, but enough comes through to make sense.

I have one of the two remaining volumes. I may end up being sorry I didn't complete the series.

More of a 3.5 star rating;
I’m still a bit lost on what’s going on but I’m enjoying what I’m reading. Things are getting really tense so hopefully everyone makes it out alive in the next volume.

It is so wacky that it seems like it should be more entertaining, but apparently it is not the correct sort of wackiness. Or something.
