Ooya Kazumi:
-Betsucomi Magazine official page (Japanese)

Welcome to the unofficial page of:

Ooya Kazumi is a well-known artist in Japan. She is probably also one of the biggest deceptions for the yaoi fans since, even though she draws really cool (or cute!) guys, her mangas are most of the heterosexual romance type ;)
She usually works for Shogakukan, publishing manga in magazines like Betsucomi or Deracomi and making illustrations for several novels. Even though she has some long-runing series in her backlist, she usually goes around making shorter yomikiri or one-chapter manga.

Ooya-sensei's art is very "shoujo-ish" in the "stylistic" way. Her art looks carefree and un-detailed at times, but it's very effective and her characters trasmit a very wide range of emotions. However, her "cool" guys usually stay "cool" and you wonder at times if they have something in them aside "coolness"... ^^;;; (but I digress...)

Please, use the menu at the left or the list below to move between this pages! ^^ (Note that there is mostly information about her works for Betsucomi and Deracomi in this page, not about her novels or shounen ai manga)
Coments, corrections and contributions are always very welcome! ^_-

About Ooya Kazumi, the author:
B-Day: [ 20th Mar. ]
Blood Type: [ A ]
Debut: Milk*Boy Sugar*Girl (in Dera-Comi), 1988.

Besides her manga works, Ooya has illustrated a wide variety of novels and designed characters for some animations.
[Ooya vs. Ohya : Japanese can be written in several ways into romaji. Both versions are correct, while Japanese usually choose the harder way to romanize words and sometimes do it wrong, I decided on "Ooya" because it's a litteral romanization that can't be misread (in hiragana= o+o+ya)]
