His career started a long time ago, but he has chosen to keep a low profile in the background, releasing oneshot on oneshot self-contained chapters which have then been released in two collections in recent years. Then comes his time with Fire Punch, but he’s in it chainsaw man which is making itself known all over the world.
The reference is, of course, to Tatsuki Fujimoto, one of the up and coming mangaka in Japan who is wowing and astounding the whole world. Crazy choices, chaos, lots of personality and unique proposals in the world of manga. But today we are talking about him because it is an important day for him: Tatsuki Fujimoto is celebrating his birthday. It was born on October 10, 1992 or 1993, with conflicting sources between Oricon, Shogakukan and Shueisha editor Shihei Lin giving different numbers.
So Tatsuki Fujimoto will be 29 or 30 years old, but we may never know as it is a non-public person. In any case, with Chainsaw Man and the following individual volumes Look Back and Addio, Eri has proven to be one of the most popular authors who, above all, always has something to tell or to say, unique in recent generations.
One can only wish the mangaka continue on this path for many years to come.
Congratulations to Tatsuki Fujimoto, the madman behind Chainsaw Man, Fire Punch, Look Back and Goodbye Eri. He turns 30. pic.twitter.com/01g6ExK7B2
