67 Tony Takezaki $@%H%K!<$?$1$6$-(B
(a pseudonym)
A graduate of an Osaka design school, Takezaki is a versatile manga-ka with a
gross sense of humor. Major artistic influences include Otomo and Umezu Kazuo
(there are also many homages/parodies of their work in his manga). Takezaki
used to draw doujinshi based on Sonoda's work, and got his big break when he
was comissioned to do the AD POLICE mangas. Takezaki also contributed to volume
2 of the Ariel manga anthologies.
(born 15 July, 1963)

AD POLICE 25:00 - published by Bandai, 1990, Y880.
AD POLICE Ultimate City $@#A#D!&#P#O#L#I#C#E=*_aET;T(B - published by Bandai,
1990, Y880.
Various stories inspired by the AD Police anime; there's some serious
stories, and some extremely flippant ones. Unravelling brains, Leon in
Osaka, perverted boomers, it's all there. 25:00 reads left to right, is
bilingual (English/Japanese, with a wild English translation), and even
has a hilarious Western-style `comic'. The anime bears little resemblance
to the manga.

Dr. Kishiwada's Scientific Affection $@4_OBEDGn;N$N2J3XE*0&>p(B - currently
serialized on Afternoon, 1991, 6 volumes @ Y530.
The hero is Dr. Kishiwada, a brilliant but demented scientist, who creates
bizarre mechs, battles the forces of evil, or just mucks about. There are
many parodies of B-grade SF movies and TV. Crazy, slick and very funny.
Genocyber $@%8%'%N%5%$%P!<(B - serialized on Comic Self, 1992, Y780.
Bio-weapons on the loose. Perfunctory, run-of-the mill story cranked out
as raw material for the anime industry.
