Anyone like Yoshiyuki Sadamoto?

Post by Kaze »

Nadioshiyuki Sadamoto (貞本 義行 Sadamoto Yoshiyuki) (born 1962, in Yamaguchi Prefecture, Japan) is one of the founding members of the Gainax anime studio. The first work as character designer of Sadamoto in Gainax was Royal Space Force: The Wings of Honneamise, released in 1987. He also worked as animator in Gunbuster and Nadia, and he came back to this work for the first episode of Diebuster (also known as "Gunbuster 2" or "Top wo Nerae! 2").

He is also the character designer for the anime series Neon Genesis Evangelion, as well as the author of the Neon Genesis Evangelion manga series, which is also Sadamoto's first full manga work.

In addition to his work on Neon Genesis Evangelion, Sadamoto did character designs for Nadia, FLCL, .hack//SIGN and Diebuster. His first artbook is entitled Alpha, and it shows a collection of works of Sadamoto that were made before Evangelion (including Nadia and The Wings of Honneamise). In 2003, Viz published a collection of his works, entitled Der Mond. Other artbooks that include some of Sadamoto's works are Die Sterne and Groundwork of FLCL.

Sadamoto is also the author of a short manga named Route 20 that was derivated from an anime project. As mangaka he was also author of the two short novels named Dirty Work and System of Romance. He is currently serving as co-creator and character designer for the .hack game franchise.

Yeah, I like his style...he's truly good.
I particulary love the way he designs the female characters :love:

But I hate him too 'cause he's sooooo slow making the Eva's manga XD

Hahaha, yeah. I like his art but if he keeps up at this pace it'll be 2015 by the time the manga ends.

Not that I like the Evangelion manga but that's a different topic entirely. :heh:
