ⓘ About Yuto Tsukuda
Yuto won the 34th Jump Juniketsu Newcomers’ Manga Award for “Kiba ni Naru, a one-shot story. While he was working on Food Wars, he hit a bit of a road block at one point, and one of the editors encouraged him to take a short break and write another story. He asked Yuto to write a one-off, but he had more ideas and ended up writing a second part. Then, while he wrote part two, the editor asked him to write a third part, assuming he had more ideas. This is how Ao no Rettou came about, which was just supposed to be a one part story. Food Wars is actually the manga artist Saeki-sensei’s brainchild. He had the idea of a girl eating food, and she expresses herself about the food with ecstasy.
