Yasuhiro Nightow
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Yasuhiro Nightow (内藤 泰弘 Naitō Yasuhiro) is a mangaka who created the anime and manga Trigun. Nightow was born on April 8, 1967 in Yokohama, Japan. He moved to Yokosuka when he was in elementary school, and spent the junior high and high school years in Shizuoka. Before the release of the popular manga, Trigun, Nightow studied Roman Catholicism, and converted, while retaining many Buddhist principles[1]. Nightow has been a manga artist for about eleven years, and is recently popular in the US thanks to the US release of Trigun. Trigun, the TV series, had a limited broadcast run in 1998 yet proved to be quite popular. Yasuhiro reportedly enjoys toy collecting, nori (in all its forms), and abhors avocados.
Nightow also created the characters and story for the Sega/Red Entertainment anime and video game series Gungrave.
He attended Anime Expo in 2000 and Otakon in 2002.
