About me:





Misako Rocks! developed a love for comics and manga at an early age and drew her first comic at the age of 13. She moved to New York in 2001 and worked as a a puppeteer, face painter, animal balloon maker, and art teacher while still developing her own work. Her first break came when the Onion decided to use her illustrations for their now famous "Savage Love" column, which runs every week. Shortly thereafter, Misako scored a two-book deal with Hyperion, a three-book deal with Henry Holt and a writing gig for Archie comics.

Misako has been featured in many magazines and newspapers, including Elle Girl and the New York Times. The BBC also featured her in a documentary about comic book creators. On top of that, she has recenctly received the Venic Beach, LA Playwright award!

Misako currently lives in Brooklyn, New York and spends her free time riding her vintage bike, making hip hop, kissing babies, shaking hands, slam dunking and eating lots of Onigiri!!!







"Many times, Misako Rocks has encouraged me with the phrase 'Ganbatte' - roughly translating to 'Go for it!' in Japanese. Her characters - especially Jermain - impart this same inspiring energy... take-charge girls that don't wimp out in the face of adversity!" - Craig Thompson

Detective Jermain is a fresh-faced Nancy Drew for today's manga generation, a sassy teen sleuth with multiple mysteries to solve: why are her teachers behaving so weirdly? which of her two childhood playmates should she choose as her boyfriend? and toughest of all, can she become as great a detective as her ex-Dad? Misako Rocks! will hook you with her blend of intriguing detective thriller with warm- hearted high-school romance. - Paul Gravett

"a fast-paced and well-executed story..." - Booklist

"Manga with a heavy dose of cute...this should find a ready crowd of action-oriented shojo fans." - Kirkus Reviews

"An appealing mix of adventure, female empowerment and romance brought alive by Takashima's vibrant illustration" - Publishers Weekly

"It's great for younger manga readers." - School Library Journal

I wanted to go so badly but it seems I'll have to work on Sunday. I'm hoping my boss tells me I don't have to go after all, but the probabilities of that are close to 0 T_T

BTW, I finished reading Biker Girl and Rock and Roll Love, they were great. Detective Jermain still my favorite of your works though, needless to say I'm looking forward to what happens next.
