## Career

She made her debut as a professional manga artist with three [yaoi](/source/Yaoi) collections after being scouted in art school. She was a student of [Rachel Thorn](/source/Rachel_Thorn), who provided translations for some of the English licenses of her work.[4] Her work has been praised as having unusual maturity and depth, both for yaoi and for manga in general. She is currently working on non-yaoi manga.[4]

Two of her first manga have been released in English by [Aurora Publishing](/source/Aurora_Publishing_(United_States)), which was a direct subsidiary of the Japanese publishing company [Ohzora Shuppan](/source/Ohzora_Shuppan),[5] the original publishers of one of the works in question. A third has been licensed by [Net Comics](/source/Net_Comics). In addition, her work Tableau Numbero 20, has been released by the [Viz Media](/source/Viz_Media) imprint Sublime.
