    • Yoshiki Takaya (Japanese: 高屋 良樹, Hepburn: Takaya Yoshiki, born February 21, 1960) is a Japanese manga artist best known for creating the manga Guyver.


      Career


      Takaya began as a hentai manga artist under the pen name Moriwo Chimi (ちみもりを, Chimi Moriwo), with several works printed in the adult manga magazine Lemon People, published by Kubo Shoten. The best known of these is Hades Project Zeorymer, which was adapted as a four episode original video animation (OVA) by AIC. He also had stories published in the manga anthology series Petit Apple Pie under this pen name.
      Takaya was contributing to Ochazukenori's doujinshi anthology Pen Touch. The work of Ochazukenori was an inspiration to him: "The kind of stories that Nori was drawing weren't what you'd call 'popular.' Our fanzine was the only place where he could create his own ideal manga."
      His most successful series Guyver has been adapted into multiple anime features as well as live-action films. Guyver was serialized in Monthly Shōnen Captain (published by Tokuma Shoten) for the lifetime of the magazine from February 18, 1985, to 1997. When Captain was cancelled, the manga moved to Shōnen Ace, published by Kadokawa Shoten, who also reprinted the collected volumes from the beginning. There are 32 tankōbon available.
