Life

After graduating from Kagoshima Prefectural Ibusuki High School, she attended Tsuru University from where she graduated with a degree in Japanese literature. While still attending Tsuru University, Nishi made her professional manga debut in 1988 with the short story "Matteiru yo" in Shogakukan's manga magazine Petit Flower.[1][2] After her debut, she stopped publishing manga and was working as an elementary school teacher. Eventually, she took up manga again because of financial reasons.[3] Her definitive works include Sanban-chō Hagiwara-ya no Bijin and Love Song.

Style

Nishi was inspired by manga artists Fusako Kuramochi and Yoshikazu Yasuhiko.[3]

After completing a draft with pencil, she starts the inking process of her pages using a G pen also for thin lines. She then adds more detailed lines with a Maru pen.[3]

Legacy

Rachel Thorn described her in the mid-1990s as "one of the most popular and respected artists of her (twenty-something) generation."[4] Her former assistants include Peppe.[5]

Her manga series Otoko no Isshō was nomininated for the Manga Taishō in 2010 and, in the same year, was among the jury-selected works at the Japan Media Arts Festival. She herself has been in the festival's jury for manga from 2019 until 2021.[2]
