Biography edit
Mizukami was born in Osaka on February 20, 1980. He decided to become a manga artist at a young age and began drawing manga while in middle school. During this time, he was influenced by the anime Mashin Hero Wataru, the manga Ghost Sweeper Mikami, and light novels such as Slayers. Later influences include Gainax works, particularly FLCL.[1] Mizukami graduated from the Osaka Technical School of Integrative Design's Department of Manga.[2] In 2004, during the serialization of Angel Onayami Sōdanjo, he moved to the Kanto region and established a workplace in Funabashi, Chiba Prefecture where he currently resides. Mizukami often depicts himself as a frog or wearing a frog mask.
