3 | Yoshihiro Togashi (born April 27, 1966) is the creator of ''Manga/YuYuHakusho'', ''Manga/LevelE'', and ''Manga/HunterXHunter''. Married to Creator/NaokoTakeuchi, with whom he has two children. He is also known for taking several long hiatuses for undisclosed reasons, but poor health, CreatorBreakdown mixed with editor attempts at ExecutiveMeddling and/or a focus on home life are the most frequent guesses. His art has also gotten a history of being serialized in a rough and unfinished state, requiring extensive revision when compiled in tankÅbon. Although he had gotten better in that regard since 2014, which results in the revisions becoming much less extensive. |

5 | Strangely Togashi is the highest-paid mangaka in Jump's payroll, and has the ability to take the hiatuses which he's famous for without consequence. This has been referred to as "Togashi-ism", and the only other person employed by Shueisha who has such favorable contract conditions is Kyosuke Usuta, author of ''Pyu to Fuku! Jaguar''. |

7 | The ''other'' thing Togashi is famous for is his gratuitous amounts of HoYay in his work...and not [[PanderingToTheBase because he sells more manga that way]]; [[AuthorAppeal LGBT topics are one of his personal interests]]. He also likes ''VideoGame/DragonQuest''. [[MemeticMutation Maybe.]] |

11 | To put most rumors to rest, his former assistant, Kunio Ajino published a biographical manga titled ''Sensei Hakusho'' in recalling the days of working with Togashi from the beginning of ''[=YuYu=] Hakusho'' through to the end of ''Level E''. |
