Masakazu KatsuraMasakazu Katsura (桂正和 Katsura Mazakazu, December 10, 1961 - ) is the manga-ka of several works of manga, including Dream Fighter Wingman, Shadow Lady, DNA², Video Girl Ai, and I"s (Aizu). He has also worked on the character designs for Iria: Zeiram the Animation, which was based on the movie Zeiram. He was born on December 10, 1961 in the prefecture of Fukui in Japan. The turning point in his life was an illness for which he was bedridden, during which time he taught himself a different way to draw. Many say that he draws the most beautiful girls in any cartoons anywhere. He is also reputed to be a huge fan of Batman, something which has influenced his work, most clearly seen in Shadow Lady. Video Girl Ai was made into six anime episodes of Original Animation Video, starting with the first volume. This has been made available for North Americans. A live-action movie was also made of the story. The main action of the five-volume series DNA² was made into an anime television show that did not sell well enough to finish, so the story was concluded in a few Original Animation Videos. This has also been made available for North Americans. I"s was made into at least two anime episodes of a side story. Katsura Masazaku
