English Summary
Catchphrase:
A manga artist who creates a world of dinosaurs and made his debut with the panic manga ``Shoot the Gigant'', which has dinosaurs as its theme.
Itaru Kinoshita is a Japanese manga artist. He made his debut with the dinosaur-themed panic manga ``Shoot the Giganto,'' and is currently serializing ``Dino Sun.'' In addition to helping raise chickens, pigs, and cows since he was in elementary school, he has also loved dinosaurs since childhood. He has loved making pictures since he was a student, and although he entered an art high school, he moved to the United States after graduating and became interested in film. However, it was difficult to find a job in the movies, so he started writing comics and gradually shifted his activities. Around 2011, he was working as a staff member at the start-up of a restaurant in Palau, and the apartment he was living in at that time was adjacent to a forest, and he was inspired by the sounds of animals coming from the forest, which led to him getting the idea for a manga based on dinosaurs. After returning to Japan, he worked at a movie theater, but aspired to become a manga artist and won multiple manga awards. However, he has repeatedly been rejected and rejected, and has a history of being depressed during those periods. I had planned to give up if I didn't have a serialized work by the time I turned 30, but just before I turned 30, I saw signs that my work would be serialized for the first time, so I decided to continue working as a manga artist.
After the serialization of ``Shoot the Gigant'' ended, he continued to use dinosaurs as his subject and created the breeding manga he had originally envisioned. That worldview was accepted by Shinchosha, and it was decided to serialize it in Monthly Comic Bunch, and is currently being serialized in Dino Sun.
Q: What did you do?
To make my debut with a panic manga with dinosaurs as the theme, and to continue creating manga works with dinosaurs as the theme.
Q: What are your famous works?
"Dino Sun". The worldview of this work, which is based on dinosaurs, which he has loved since childhood, was accepted by Shinchosha, and is currently being serialized.
