Lua error in Module:Infobox at line 235: malformed pattern (missing ']'). Fumiyo Kōno (こうの 史代 Kōno Fumiyo?, born 28 September 1968[1]), commonly romanized Fumiyo Kouno, is a Japanese manga artist from Nishi-ku, Hiroshima, known for her 2004 manga Town of Evening Calm, Country of Cherry Blossoms.

Biography

She was born in Hiroshima in 1968 and began drawing manga when she was in junior high school.[2] She states that she began drawing manga because her parents would not often buy her manga.[3] Kōno studied science at Hiroshima University and moved to Tokyo, becoming an assistant to Katsuyuki Toda, Aki Morino, and Fumiko Tanigawa. Kōno made her commercial debut in 1995 with Machikado Hana Da Yori.[2] She feels that Osamu Tezuka and Fujiko Fujio were among her early influences, but then she was inspired by Sanpei Shirato's literary style and at present, she takes inspiration from Yu Takita's versatility.[3] She graduated from University of the Air in 2001 with a major in Humanities.[2]
