Life

Takashi Hashiguchi won a prize from the 1987 Kodansha publishing house for best young artist. This award meant that he was able to publish his first manga as a professional artist in 1988. The titled as Combat Teacher short story appeared in directing himself to young adult manga magazine Young Magazine in which, among other things, Ghost in the Shell by Masamune Shirow, Katsuhiro Otomo of Akira and published. Shortly after the release of Combat Teacher he wanted to start a career as an entertainer and a friend. Since the two had as Takeshi Takashi no success, Hashiguchi the manga - drawing turned back to 1991.

While his debut work was published in a magazine of his Kodansha publishing house, he created from then on mainly mangas that were aimed at primary school children and the Shogakukan publishing house published. For the Coro - Coro magazine he drew Kinniku Kurabu and Chie - bā - chan no chiebukuro and the style similar to the video game Street Fighter 2 Yonkoma manga Suto II Bakusho!
