Johji Manabe

Johji Manabe (真鍋譲治, Manabe Jōji^?, born 18 December 1964 in Japan) is a Japanese manga artist.

He is not to be confused with an animator of the same name (but written differently, 真鍋譲二), who worked mainly in the 1970s for Oh! Production: A Dog of Flanders, Genshi Shōnen Ryû, Marco, Dokonjō Gaeru, King Arthur, Galaxy Express 999,^[1] Lupin the 3rd: Season 1, Lupin the 3rd: The Castle of Cagliostro, Future Boy Conan (episodes 8-17^[2])...

Best known in the English-speaking world for Caravan Kidd, Outlanders and Capricorn, his later works are often pornographic in nature, though he was never exclusive to either adult or non-adult material.^{[citation needed]}
