Yoshiko Tsuchida (Japanese: 土田よしこ, 26 February 1948 – 15 September 2023) was a Japanese manga artist and writer. Often described as a "unique" figure among Japanese manga artists,[1][2] because of her style she has been referred to as "a female Fujio Akatsuka".[2]
Life and career
Born in Musashino, Tokyo, since her childhood Tsuchida was a keen manga reader, and especially a fan of Shigeru Sugiura and Osamu Tezuka.[2] After her high school graduation she started her career as an assistant of Fujio Akatsuka at Fujio Pro.[2] She made her debut as a manga creator in 1968, with the series Harenchi-kun, published in the magazine Shōsetsu June.[3]
Specialized in nonsense gag cartoons featuring parodies of traditional shōjo manga heroines,[4] Tsuchida is best known for her manga Tsuruhime-ja! ("It's Princess Tsuru!"), which ran from 1973 to 1979 in the magazine Margaret and in 1990 was adapted into a Nippon TV anime series with the same name.[5][6] The manga was awarded the Excellence Award at the fourth Japan Cartoonists Association Awards.[7][8] Tsuchida died on 15 September 2023, at the age of 75.[7]
