- rowanG077 6y agoMarch comes in like a lion blew me away!
- searchableguy 6y agoIf you liked that, you shoud also check out monogatari series, tatami galaxy.
- stephen_cagle 6y agoHuh, learn something new (about author). I never read the manga, but I really liked the "Silver Spoon" anime. Something about people opening new chapters and discovering new interest/passions really satisfies me.
- rootsudo 6y agoI thought this one too, never heard of the linked person for OP.)
- dumb1224 6y agoShe is hugely popular in east asia. Although the popularity did reach Europe but for some reason not the UK, manga/anime in general I feel. Am I wrong? Could anyone explain why?
- Razengan 6y ago> Another candidate (and the first person I thought of when I read the HN link title): Rumiko Takahashi Same! I have always appreciated her for Ranma½ :) and of course Urusei Yatsura has been very influential too.
- toyg 6y agoUrusei Yatsura, Maison Ikkoku, and Ranma ½, were all massive successes at the time. Even her minor story Honoo Torippā, once polished into Inuyasha, went on to be pretty big. I really struggle to look at Tsurita's work and see how she "shaped" manga history in any way, beyond being one of the first published females.
