Daisuke Igarashi

Birth Place: Saitama Prefecture, Japan

Birthday: Apr 2, 1969

Family name: 五十嵐

Given name: 大介

Zodiac: Aries

Gender: Male

Debuted with Ohayashi ga kikoeru rear (お囃子が聞こえる日) in 1994.

Igarashi is known among manga fans for his bold, detailed art style and innovative storytelling. While his works are often described as fantastical, they can hardly be categorized as traditional fantasy stories; instead, Igarashi draws inspiration from folklore and nature combined with surrealism and spiritual themes to create a style that has earned comparisons to the films of Hayao Miyazaki (Igarashi himself stated in an interview that Miyazaki's film My Neighbor Totoro was a key influence on his decision to become a manga artist).

Official Announcement

Hi everyone,

As you may have known, our team is working hard on a new digital comics platform that lets you enjoy comics & officially support the creators & publishers that you love. Once it’s launched in the near future, you will not be able to read content anymore on mangarock.com.

MR Comics Membership still works normally & it will be carried over to the new platform. Your reading data (such as Favorites & Recent) will also be migrated over to the new platform. We will have more details once it’s available.

However, please expect that more titles will be removed from this site as we comply with all content takedown requests in the upcoming periods.

Thank you for supporting us,

The Manga Rock team
