Nisio Isin frequently written as NisiOisiN to emphasize that his pen name is a palindrome, is a Japanese novelist and manga writer. He attended and left Ritsumeikan University without graduating. In 2002, he debuted with the novel Kubikiri Cycle, which earned him the 23rd Mephisto Award at twenty years of age.

He currently works with Kodansha on Pandora, the Kodansha Box magazine, and Faust, a literary magazine containing the works of other young authors who similarly take influence from light novels and otaku culture. He was also publishing a twelve volume series over twelve months for the Kodansha Box line; Ryusui Seiryoin was matching this output, and the Kodansha Box website stated that this is the first time in the world two authors have done twelve volume monthly novel series simultaneously from the same publisher.

In February, 2008, his novel Death Note Another Note: The Los Angeles BB Murder Cases was released in English by Viz Media. Del Rey Manga has already released the first volume in his Zaregoto series. His Bakemonogatari and Katanagatari novels have been adapted into anime.

Bakemonogatari, Nisemonogatari and Medaka Box is masterpiece.

Worst writer ever

Not necessarily best person for plot or character development but he is a genius in creating amazing dialogue between characters and clever wordplay.


tsudecimo | 03-18-13, 5:23 AM
Genius.

A man who made a career out of writing cringingly bad and rambling dialogue and having a pretty good artist to be paired up with for his novels and manga. Knows how to write unique and distinctive fan service scenes and that's about it, other than that his stories have no flow or internal logic and his characters are all loathsome and irritating in the extreme.

His talent in writing smut could be put to legitimately good use in writing scenes for eroge though.

I've never had an idol, but right now Nisio-sensei became one. I really think that Nisio-sensei is world best psychologist and absolutly the best great-and-deep-characters creator.


Ducat_Revel | 12-31-12, 11:48 AM
The Monogatari series is his most popular work.
Katanagatari is his best work.
But Medaka Box is his masterpiece.

katanagatari is the best he wrote
