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.
Bellísimo arte de uno de mis mangas favoritos. Lo mejor es que se trata, efectivamente, de diseños salidos de la obra original. La edición es preciosa. Para mirar y volver a mirar.
Soul Eater is an amazing manga (still need the last volumes), and the anime is shaping up to be amazing too. This book collects Atsushi Ohkubo's art + some other stuff, and it is all amazing. He really has a fantastic artstyle, creative, fun, colourful. I would love some more artbooks with art by this artist.
Arte, arte, arte. Alma, alma, alma. Preciosas ilustraciones en un formato lujoso para los fans de las buenas ilustraciones en general y de Soul Eater en particular.
