Maki Kusumoto ( jap. 楠 本 き き , Kusumoto Maki, July 15, 1967, in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan) is a Japanese manga artist.

Early life

Kusumoto started her manga art work at the early age of 16. Following a two year break from drawing to study for her entrance exams to university, she studied philosophy at the Ochanomizu Women's University in Tokyo. She eventually quit her studies there because to make time for her manga work. She takes some of her inspiration from her studies of philosophy and the work of British illustrator Aubrey Beardsley said to have worked closely with Oscar Wilde. Her first professionally released manga was published in 1984 in Margaret, one of Japan's most popular Japanese manga magazines (shōjo). She lives in London.

Kusumoto's works are known for being psychological dramas focusing on death and romance between androgynous characters. Her minimalist aesthetics, darker themes, and preference for abstraction are all a big draw to her manga. She portrays willowy and long-limbed characters with unclear gender characteristics, who struggle with their inner demons in the harsh reality of everyday life.

Dolis

Dolis is one of her most famous works featuring a female protagonist named Mitsu who is known as the ideal girl. The male protagonist, Kishi falls for her in a classic romance but quickly learns there is more to Mitsu than meets the eye. The protagonists take a slow descent into mentally taxing and darker realms that display the realities of love, heartbreak, and obsession. Dolis is considered a Josei manga or one shot.
