comics and illustrations

Do you love pets? We like pets and love Jiraiya. Jiraiya (Child of thunder in Japanese traditional culture), born in 1967, is a commercial illustrator; in his 20’s he wanted to be a cartoonist but it was uncongenial for him to draw cartoon in weekly or biweekly basis, so he once gave up becoming a cartoonist. In 1994 he sent some illustrations to G-men and began immediately to collaborate with the magazine; from 2001 to 2006 he drew all the covers (the previous artist was Gengoroh Tagame). His favorite type of guys, masculine and muscled, are common policemen, fishermen, agriculturists, musicians, salesmen, sportsmen, Jiraiya draws them with affection and tenderness appropriating Japan's cultural history as a way to explore homosexuality. His bara mangas have a great amount of fans. (Thanks to 5election).
