About the author
Mitsuru Adachi
684 books219 followersMitsuru Adachi (あだち充 in Japanese) is a Japanese manga artist. After graduating from Gunma Prefectural Maebashi Commercial High School in 1969, Adachi worked as an assistant for Isami Ishii. He made his manga debut in 1970 with Kieta Bakuon, based on a manga originally created by Satoru Ozawa. Kieta was published in Deluxe Shōnen Sunday (a manga magazine published by Shogakukan).
Adachi is well known for romantic comedy and sports manga (especially baseball) such as Touch, H2, Slow Step, and Miyuki. He has been described as a writer of "delightful dialogue", a genius at portraying everyday life, "the greatest pure storyteller", and "a master manga artist". He is one of the few manga artists to write for shōnen, shōjo, and seinen manga magazines, and be popular in all three.
His works have been carried in manga magazines such as Weekly Shōnen Sunday, Ciao, Shōjo Comic, Big Comic, and Petit Comic, and most of his works are published through Shogakukan and Gakken. He was one of the flagship authors in the new Monthly Shōnen Sunday magazine which began publication in June 2009. Only two short story collections, Short Program and Short Program 2 (both through Viz Media), have been released in North America, though Viz is scheduled to begin publishing Cross Game in October 2010.
He modeled the spelling of あだち (rather than 安達) for his family name after the example of his older brother, manga artist Tsutomu Adachi. In addition, it has been suggested that the accurate portrayal of sibling rivalry in Touch may come from Adachi's experiences while growing up with his older brother. Adachi did the character designs for the OVA anime series Nozomi Witches, so he is sometimes incorrectly given credit for creating the original series.

Good storytelling, but too much fanserv.

Perkembangan cerita cukup baik khas Adachi. Namun masih terkesan biasa saja. Alurnya lambat dan chara developmentnya belum membaik.

Membaca manga ini membuatku merasa gemas sendiri. Bukan karena kejenakaan cerita. Tapi lebih karena rasanya seperti ditipu mentah-mentah. Manga ini seharusnya diterbitkan setelah diedit begitu banyak bagiannya, karena ternyata dari 200 halaman yang dimiliki, setidaknya 25% dipergunakan hanya untuk menampilkan gambar-gambar kosong tanpa cerita. Bisa-bisanya satu halaman penuh didedikasikan hanya untuk panel-panel bergambar jendela, rumah, pagar, papan nama dan lainnya; dan ini dilakukan Adachi beberapa kali. WTF?!
Bahkan tanpa tedeng aling-aling, disiapkan 4 halaman khusus untuk “Project Special Adachi Mitsuru Mengisahkan Empat Musim” yang sama sekali tidak ada kaitannya dengan cerita utama!!
Komikus pemalas dan editor yang sama saja tidak kreatif. Aku tidak akan membeli lanjutan manga ini.
