Adachi Mitsuru: not just a comic master

9 Feb 2019 was Adachi’s 68th Birthday. I wish him great health and a forever youthful heart!

Just read someone comment about Adachi Mitsuru’s  drawing style: fine lines, without over-done, beautiful.

yes I agree. When I had a look at his early works, at those Miyuki eras, I can tell he is a great artist. In the chapter open pages you will see many nicely drawn pictures of Miyuki. 

I personally think that he is a good pencil and ink illustrator, and has excellent skills with watercolours, he has created a watercolour style of his own.

Adachi would also be a good film director, if he ever become one! I believe he knows every skills artisticly when he zoom/pan in and out, the silence, the atmosphere and the broken of silence, the things that he wants to draw your attention, the unspoken... there are many ways, too many, that you can explore and to enjoy in his comics.
