About the author
Mitsuru Adachi
696 books221 followersMitsuru Adachi (あだち充 in Japanese) is a Japanese manga artist. After graduating from Gunma Prefectural Maebashi Commercial High School in 1969, Adachi worked as an assistant for Isami Ishii. He made his manga debut in 1970 with Kieta Bakuon, based on a manga originally created by Satoru Ozawa. Kieta was published in Deluxe Shōnen Sunday (a manga magazine published by Shogakukan).
Adachi is well known for romantic comedy and sports manga (especially baseball) such as Touch, H2, Slow Step, and Miyuki. He has been described as a writer of "delightful dialogue", a genius at portraying everyday life, "the greatest pure storyteller", and "a master manga artist". He is one of the few manga artists to write for shōnen, shōjo, and seinen manga magazines, and be popular in all three.
His works have been carried in manga magazines such as Weekly Shōnen Sunday, Ciao, Shōjo Comic, Big Comic, and Petit Comic, and most of his works are published through Shogakukan and Gakken. He was one of the flagship authors in the new Monthly Shōnen Sunday magazine which began publication in June 2009. Only two short story collections, Short Program and Short Program 2 (both through Viz Media), have been released in North America, though Viz is scheduled to begin publishing Cross Game in October 2010.
He modeled the spelling of あだち (rather than 安達) for his family name after the example of his older brother, manga artist Tsutomu Adachi. In addition, it has been suggested that the accurate portrayal of sibling rivalry in Touch may come from Adachi's experiences while growing up with his older brother. Adachi did the character designs for the OVA anime series Nozomi Witches, so he is sometimes incorrectly given credit for creating the original series.

Il mio studio da frutti. Adesso sembra una cosa stupida scrivere ma quando c'è la stazione di Takamidai ho riconosciuto il kanji di Taka e quello di Eki (Station). Non ho ancora studiato i due per bene ma riconoscerli mi da una soddisfazione immensa. Oddio sono folle. 🚈

Uno dei protagonisti sta iniziando a piacermi. La storia sta evolvendo. I personaggi sono semplici. Forse sarebbe stato più bello se non avessero lasciato alle competenze pregresse dei lettori la comprensione del baseball. Ma per il resto ora si sta rendendo un manga sportivo non troppo malaccio.

Duh, semoga makin lama makin ngerti aturan main baseball +_+ Kalau nggak ngerti-ngerti juga bisa-bisa pengalaman membaca Vicious Horse Grooming Up terulang. Tiap baca bagian pacuan kuda cuma bisa skip-skip-skip~
