07th expansion

History
Started off producing original cards for the trading card game called Leaf Fight as a way to present their work. They would sell their works at various events including Comiket where they met BT who later became the manager of their homepage. After two years of selling cards they began thinking about switching to another genre. During this time, Tsukihime by Type Moon rose in popularity opening the door for many aspiring doujin circles including 07th Expansion as co-founder Yatazakura began learning how to use NScripter. Along with Ryukishi07, they began their attempt at making a visual novel using a scrapped stage play written by Ryukishi07 called Hinamizawa Bus Stop as the main part. This would later be turned into their first work Higurashi When They Cry.

Ryukishi07
Founder of 07th Expansion. Began drawing manga in Junior High School in order to express his creativity. In high school, he started to notice the difference in artistic abilities with his peers leading him to quit drawing manga. During this time, he would become interested in doujin activities but due to not having his own circle, he would help out other doujin circles with coloring illustrations. Later studied at a vocational school.
