Keiichi Arawi (1977-) is a professional comic artist and
illustrator. Originally from Gunma, Japan, he was raised in the
city of Maebashi. By the time he was 19 he entered the world of
comics drawing short stories for Media Factory's Comic Flapper (My
Neighbor Seki, 7 Billion Needles). While his first series KazeMachi
was short-lived it caught the attention of one of the bigger
publishers in Japan, Kadokawa Publishing.
His short Nichijou won Kadokawa's 22nd ACE Award for New Artists
and by November 2006 Nichijou was regularly serialized in
Kadokawa's flagship magazine Shonen Ace. Nichijou has since then
sold more than a million copies and has seen cartoon and video game
adaptations.
It was also selected by Guillermo del Toro as one of the top comics
out of Japan today for Asahi News' SUGOI Japan project.
"nichijou is a silly and fun book that works great as you can gobble up a whole volume and love it or spread out the chapters as little morsels of humor that delight over a few weeks. definitely recommended." - Fandom Post
