Script error: No such module "Nihongo". (born 1961 in Mie Prefecture) is a Japanese science fiction writer.
After a career as a CAD programmer and game designer, he was first published in 1992, the Creguian game novelization.
He admires Arthur C. Clarke, and his own works are classified as hard science fiction, favoring planetary science as a theme. His Rocket Girls series deals with human spaceflight in a light novel form with hard SF backing; the reason that only girls are hired as astronauts in the novels is for their light weight.
