If you don't know, he's the creator of Slayers and Lost Universe. He wrote the novel series that both animes are based off of. I'm wondering if he's been up to anything else recently. Does anyone know? I really love his work. Thankfully the Slayers novel series that begat it all is going to be released in the US via Tokyopop.

Not according to the Encyclopedia, though it does say that he wrote two other manga (and did the art for one of them).

No ofense to the ANN encyclopedia, but most of the creator cagalogues are some what incomplete. Also, I imagine that he's wrote alot more novels, which I don't think the encyclopedia covers.

The Encyclopedia is based on user input, so if you know something that should be added, it's not really ANN's fault that it isn't there.

Calm down. I wasn't attacking you or anything. And your statement that the creator catalogues were incomplete suggested that you might have known something to add.

I have added stuff in the past. I just know due to past experience that most of them will not be complete because there are many animes, mangas, etc. that are unknown in America. Its just a general fact. However, my knowledge isn't that great to know everything that is missing. Its just I know when you have a career in the anime/manga industry you eventually build up a pretty decent body of work. I'm just surmising many of them are still probably not complete. It becomes even harder when most creators don't have a web resource as good as say Tezuka Osama World, which I have used to add in 12 different missing animes (none of which have been accepted yet, but from what I understand is they have a backlog of over a 130 something entries to work through).
