Talk:Kozue Amano

Fun for all, giant for fun?
> The legend about a giant remains in every place in Okinawa. For example, there is a tale about a giant "Amanchu" who pushed and divided the heaven and the ground as God of creating the world in the Ryukyu myth. On festive days, youth stand on the shoulders of each other to create a 3 meter tall giant, who is dressed up to resemble the "Amanchu" figure. <

Looks like the new manga naming is a bit more complicated than simply "amansan" + "uminchu" = (lady diver + shell fisher) = amanchu. Maybe this alternative naming gives some insight to the future relation between Hikari and that creepy looking Adams-family sccoter girl. 82.131.210.162 (talk) 17:51, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Aria Kedavra
Ms. Kozue Amano is a well-known HP fan, and she co-authored a series of at least three Harry Potter themed 30-40 pages doujin-shi booklets (HP and the Secret Flower Garden, HP and the Nearby Stone, HP and the Azkaban Clique). The nominal publisher, a doujin circle named "Office Akujo" consisted of her and Saint Seiya author Mr. Teshirougi Shiori. It's no secret it was her, each chapter contains dedications to her fat cat, named Pokoteng.

Strictly speaking, such commercial fan art violates HP copyrights, but in practice no-one cares a damn about that aspect in Japan. Doujin-shi based on any literary or movie theme are very widespread and being sold at conventions near self-cost of production.

Ps: According to a notice in Comic Blade 2010/6 (July issue), Ms. Amano is ill. If anyone knows anything more, please please chime in at http://amanocentricscans.blogspot.com 91.82.169.73 (talk) 20:19, 4 July 2010 (UTC)

 * Sayaka Ohara-san (Alicia Florence voice actor) confirmed in her personal blog that Ms. Kozue Amano was contacted and she and her baby are safe following the huge earthquake. 91.82.242.12 (talk) 22:23, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

Animations.
ARIA saga veteran director Junichi Sato is said to be leading an anime adaptation of Mrs. Amano's currently running Amanchu manga. Unofficial Twitter leak from 06 Jan 2015: あまんちゅアニメ化するな、監督は佐藤順一さんでよろしく

Otherwise, it seems ARIA was not the first work by Mrs. Amano to be animated. If I understand correctly what Mr. Sato tweeted, there a "Warrior postman witch TAI" manga or something like that from her, which got an OVA circa 1995: 『魔法使いTai!』は『ARIA』の天野こずえ先生も好きだと言ってくれて、それで監督のオファーをいただけたんだと思うのですが、作品って終わってもこうして新しい縁を生んでくれたりするんですよね. ずっと生きてるんだなって思います. www.bs11.jp/anime/3291/
