Matsumoto Reiji was a mangaka born on 25.01.1938 in Kurume, Fukuoka. His bloodtype was B.
Matsumoto's art might take some getting used to, but he is renowned for coming up with great stories and brilliant new concepts. Debuting in 1953 with a 16 page manga "Mitsubachi no Bouken" in Manga Shounen, he authored nearly thirty manga series.
His big break came in 1971, in the years between 53 and 71 he mostly produced Shoujo manga, much to his displeasure. In the late '70s and the early '80s, there was a big Matsumoto-boom when he drew his best known series. After that, things became more quiet around him, but the late '90s show a revival.
The trademarks of Matsumoto are his unusual artstyle, the space opera and the manly romance stories.
In 1997, Matsumoto began to create new adventures of Captain Harlock which can be admired on the Web in Japanese and in English.
One of Matsumoto Reiji's former assistants is Sen'nou Knife 千之ナイフ, who was also an assistant of Maki Miyako 宗美智子. He went solo in the mid-80s and enjoyed modest success with Yami no Silhouette 闇のシルエット (published by Akita Shoten, 1987-92, 4 volumes @ Y390).
His real name was Matsumoto Akira. Reiji is a pseudonym and means something like "Zero Warrior". His name is often rendered in romaji as "Matsumoto Leiji". Matsumoto was married to Maki Miyako.
