My Neighbor Seki is a high school comedy manga in the vein of Yotsuba and Azumanga Daioh.
Takuma Morishige was born in Miyazaki prefecture back in 1978. A
professional comic artist, he earned an engineering degree from the
University of Hiroshima. While Morishige has been working as a
comic artist since 2001, he is best known for his work on My
Neighbor Seki and for being the brother to the award-winning comic
artist Akiko Higashimura. Morishige even appears as a character in
Higashimura's autobiographical comic Himawari...
In 2000 Morishige's debut project, Life Arts, was a finalist
selection for the Chiba Tetsuya Comic Award. He would then turn his
attention towards manga creation full-time in 2001. He has since
developed six series, most of them being comedies.
In January 2014, My Neighbor Seki was adapted into an animated TV
series, further expanding his footprint globally as the series was
available in Asia, North America, Europe and Brazil.
