Hiroyuki Asada broke into the industry in 1986 and built his reputation gradually through early works like "Mint" and "Renka" before hitting it big with "I'll". He's known for his flowing, elegant linework and subtly layered compositions that draw readers in without demanding attention.
Beyond his solo projects, Asada has been a sought-after collaborator—he's worked with Shou Tashima on "Psycho" and teamed up with Ken Obata for both "Hikaru no Go" and "Death Note". He also contributed to "Aquarios 3".
