He is the representative member of the group 07th Expansion. His pen name originated from Reina of "Final Fantasy V" — "07" in Japanese can be pronounced as "reinana", and "Ryukishi" means "dragon knight", referring to Reina's wyvern. The character Rena Ryugu from his work, "Higurashi no Naku Koro ni", comes from Reina of "Final Fantasy V" as well. His illustration style is recognizable from the large, four-fingered hands he draws to people.
