Under what name does Mikiyo Tsuda write Yaoi?
Mikiyo Tsuda Mikiyo Tsuda (つだみきよ , Tsuda Mikiyo , born on January 10) is a manga writer and illustrator from Japan who has been writing manga since 1998. This name is one of her two pen names that she writes under when drawing manga, the other being Taishi Zaō (蔵王大志 , Zaō Taishi ) . Under the name "Taishi Zaō", she writes boys love and girls love manga while under "Mikiyo Tsuda" she writes comedy-shōjo manga. Her reasons for doing this mainly had to do with keeping the fact that she drew manga centered on homosexual relationships from her family but they eventually found out anyway. Many manga artists often adopt artistic personas for themselves in order to represent themselves in sections of their manga not attributed to the story, as in an author's note section. Mikiyo Tsuda's persona is that of a teddy bear wearing a red bow tie with a bell at its center.
MediaWorks (publisher) MediaWorks, Inc. (株式会社メディアワークス , Kabushiki-gaisha MediaWākusu ) was a Japanese publishing company in the Kadokawa Group known for their "Dengeki" (電撃 , meaning "electric shock") brand magazines and book labels. These included such well-known magazines as "Dengeki Daioh", and "Dengeki G's Magazine", along with MediaWorks' main light novel publishing imprint Dengeki Bunko. The company was merged with ASCII on April 1, 2008, and became ASCII Media Works. They mainly catered to the Japanese male otaku crowd, covering such topics as anime, light novels, manga, plastic modelling, and visual novels. However, MediaWorks had published three magazines targeted towards females—"Comic Sylph", "Dengeki Girl's Style", and "Character Parfait"—but each one was a special edition version of another magazine. MediaWorks ran yearly contests for original novel and manga submissions, such as the light novel Dengeki Novel Prize contest.
