**Catchphrase**
"A manga artist who portrays the lives and struggles of adults in modern society"
Kenji Hirokane is a Japanese manga artist born in 1947. His representative works include the "Kachō Shima Kōsaku" series and "Human Crossroads." Drawing on his experience working at Matsushita Electric Industrial (now Panasonic Holdings), he has created works exploring the lives and conflicts of adults in modern society.
Kenji Hirokane is a person who, guided by the criterion of "enjoyment," decided at a certain point in his life that he wanted to draw manga, and left his job to become a manga artist. At the time, there were few manga artists with experience as salarymen at major corporations, and he was a pioneer in this regard.
Beyond manga, he has published many books offering advice to middle-aged and older individuals on how to live with an awareness of old age and death. His concept is to "draw beautifully, sexily, and elegantly without being crude." He openly admits his fondness for mature women, and his works even depict the pubic hair of women with imperfect body lines.
He maintained a routine of brainstorming at a family restaurant in the mornings, writing manuscripts from the afternoon until early morning, and sleeping for about four hours. While he declines television appearances, he has made intermittent appearances on radio programs.
