Shinji Wada

Zodiac: Aries

Birthplace: Kure, Hiroshima, Japan

An old-style action mangaka. His main characters are women, and he draws for a shoujo audience. Debut in 1971 in Margaret.

When the Crown project came along, and he was notified that his co-collaborator would be You Higuri, he knew there would be "hot guys" involved. Although leery at first, according to him, he soon found his pace!
