Toshio took me to akihabara on the Saturday in Tokyo, it was so intense! At first we visited an action figure shop, the figures they had had to be the most awesome toys I have ever seen! I cant describe how much that place blew my mind! The shop was swarming with male and female otaku alike just as many female otaku as there are male now… perhaps more! After we went to asakusa, which catered mainly for the tourists- selling pretty much every traditional Japanese souvenier you can think of… everything from ninja costumes, authentic Japanese swords to… you name it they had it! You really need to visit that place… when you walk through it, you are bombarded with pretty much everything Japanese! It is only a short ride from shin yokohama station, and is a great place to kick back and chill out, with lots to do including siteseeing and visiting temples, etc.

Toshio Maeda began reading manga when he was 5 or 6 years old, as well as American comics such as Mighty Mouse , Spider-Man and Batman. He was also a reader of all genres of literature and has said that he read more than 10, books before he was 20 years old. At 16 Maeda left Osaka to go to Tokyo as an assistant to a professional cartoonist. He became interested in manga for adults to avoid all the sexual, political and religious restrictions that were placed on manga for children. Early in his career, with the likes of Evil Spirit Island and Ashita-e Kick Off , he only provided the illustrations while someone else wrote the text for the manga. He worked as an assistant to fellow manga artist, Kenji Nanba, who himself was a disciple of Takao Saito and helped mentor Maeda into becoming a mangaka. Maeda is credited with the proliferation of the tentacle rape genre. Maeda's first usage of tentacles in his manga was in , in an experimental short story published in the magazine Special Young Comic titled SEX Tearing. The reason for drawing tentacles in the story was that Maeda was not allowed to draw male genitals. The Erotic Anime Movie Guide claimed that "No other title apart from Akira has been so influential in the English-language market". Maeda has mentioned that since portraying genitals was illegal in Japan, artists would use any trick they could to get by the censors and he could say that a creature's tentacle was not a penis. An ANN writer covering the story praised him as "the most influential erotic manga artist in Japan" and called Urotsukidoji "the foundation for the entire 'erotic-grotesque' genre of Japanese anime". A motorbike accident in left Maeda with limited ability in his drawing hand but he continued to use his computer to create characters and write scripts.
