From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia
Hirohiko Araki (è’木飛呂彦 Araki Hirohiko, born June 7, 1960 in Sendai, Japan) is a manga artist.
Araki is best known for his long running series JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, published in Weekly Shonen Jump starting in 1987. The story is full of references to Western music and Italy, both of which Araki is reportedly very fond of. Many of Araki's creations have been translated and released in Europe but he is virtually unknown in the United States. One popular theory is that Araki's frequent references to Western music may violate American copyright laws.
