Atsushi Ōkubo ( 大久保篤), also romanized as Atsushi Ohkubo, is a Japanese manga author and fantasy artist known for his work on the manga series Soul Eater, which has been adapted into an anime. Okubo worked as an assistant under Rando Ayamine, on the manga series Get Backers. He also created artwork for various cards for the Lord of Vermillion game.
Atsushi Ōkubo was not a model student and was more attracted to drawing than to learning. At the age of 20, after finishing studies at a manga school where he met Rando Ayamine, the author of Get Backers, he became Rando Ayamine's assistant for two years. Finally, he won a competition at Square Enix's Gangan magazine with his first manga series B.Ichi and it was published for four volumes. After the end of his last manga, he created Soul Eater, still for Square Enix's Gangan magazine, which brought him worldwide success.
Muito legal. Os personagens são interessantes, principalmente o trio principal, e apesar de ser bem Slice of Life, consegue te prender e deixar interessado em qual vai ser a resolução da personagem principal.
Os últimos 5 capítulos são MUITO incríveis. O plot twist me deixou com vontade de sair gritando, porque eu genuinamente não esperava. Só queria que um dos aspectos dele (o relacionado a "fantasia") tivesse sido mais explorado ao longo do mangá.
Leitura rápida, leve e divertida, que acho que serve bem ao propósito de encerrar Soul Eater num ponto mais feliz do que o mangá original termina!
