Nao Yazawa is a manga artist from Japan who is best known for “Wedding Peach”.
Her first work as a professional illustrator was Gengorō mairu! Yazawa later decided to draw shōjo manga for a female readership and created several works for Pyon Pyon, such as the magical girl manga Mahō Shōjo Chūkana Paipai! based on the TV series of the same name.
The breakthrough for the illustrator came when she published the manga series Wedding Peach from 1994 to 1996.
In addition to her work in the commercial manga market, Yazawa also publishes dōjinshi. Her Dōjinshi Shinkū Chitai, published by the German publisher Egmont, has become particularly well known.
The illustrator takes her ideas for her stories from her knowledge of Chinese history, but also from books, films and her own experiences.
