Japanese manga artist
Yoshihiro Tamogami (田母神 慈宏, Tamogami Yoshihiro, born May 15, 1959 in Tokyo), better known by his pen name Hiroshi Aro (あろ ひろし, Aro Hiroshi), is a Japanese manga artist. He is mostly known for being the author of Futaba-Kun Change!, Morumo 1/10 and Yuu and Mii.
Aro worked as an assistant to manga artist Osamu Akimoto.[1] He admitted that Futaba-kun Change! was created to be his version of Ranma ½ by Rumiko Takahashi, just as Yuu & Mi was his version of Takahashi's Maison Ikkoku.[1] Aro makes guest appearances in his own comics, drawing himself as an alligator wearing glasses.
