Takahashi Tsutomu
Takahashi Tsutomu is well-known for his debut work, "Jiraishin" and his rich seinen portfolio featuring unrelentingly dark, cynical, Film Noir storylines. His signature art utilizes thin lines and large, deep areas of black, creating a "calculated chaos" that takes full advantage of manga's grayscale nature. Takahashi Tsutomu's work has been evolving over the years - he isn't really pigeonholed into one particular genre or subject matter, having written crime thrillers, sports, supernatural horror, and even slice of life.
