Mitsuyoshi Sonoda

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mitsuyoshi Sonoda (園田 光慶, Sonoda Mitsuyoshi, December 7, 1940 – July 1997) was a Japanese manga artist. During the time in which manga was often distributed through lending libraries, Sonoda used the pen name Hidekazu Arikawa (ありかわ 栄一, Arikawa Hidekazu).

His best known works are Akatasuki Sentōtai, Sangokushi and Akakichi no Eleven. Akatasuki Sentōtai ran afoul of Japanese sentiment in the 1960s against military manga and has since fallen out of circulation.
