Hitoshi Ashinano (芦奈野ひとし, Ashinano Hitoshi, born April 25, 1963) is a Japanese manga artist. He is most noted for Yokohama Kaidashi Kikō, for which he won Afternoon magazine's Four Seasons Award for debut works and the 2007 Seiun Award for Best Science Fiction Manga. Another notable work is Position. He has also been known to create dōjinshi under the name "suke". Prior to his debut, Ashinano worked as an assistant to manga artist Kōsuke Fujishima.

His work also usually has a rather laid-back, nostalgic feel with undertones of mystery; there are frequent stretches with little or no dialogue.

@pluvia33@ doesn't matter who picks it up, YKK deserves an american release, one of the best manga's i've ever had the pleasure of reading.

Oh god, I hope Viz never gets their hands on YKK. I mean, it could work, but I don't know if I'd really trust them with my favorite manga of all time. Now Yen Press on the other hand, that would be nice. ^_^

Viz seriously need to bring YKK over to North America. I WANT TO BUY THIS!

I would gladly give up any of my organs to this guy.

Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou is probably the best manga ever, but PositioN, Kabu no Isaki and Kumabachi no Koto are amazing too. Even with short stories, you can see his artistic and narrative genius. I especially loved PositioN chapter 5 with the fog.

Overall, my favorite mangaka and my favorite artist too !
