Sui Ishida
b. 1986
Sui Ishida was born on December 28, 1986, in Japan. He is best known as the creator of the dark fantasy manga *Tokyo Ghoul* and its sequel *Tokyo Ghoul: Re*, as well as the ongoing series *Choujin X*. Ishida’s path into comics began with a passion for drawing and storytelling, leading him to develop his signature style—a blend of intricate linework, expressive character designs, and a moody, atmospheric aesthetic that perfectly suits his often grim narratives. His work is noted for its psychological depth and visceral action sequences. Ishida is the sole writer and artist for his major series, making him the primary creative force behind their worlds. He co-created *Tokyo Ghoul* as a standalone work, which quickly became a global phenomenon, spawning anime adaptations, films, and merchandise. Later in his career, he launched *Choujin X*, a series that explores similar themes of transformation and identity. Ishida’s contributions to manga have earned him widespread recognition, though specific major awards are not documented in available records. He remains active in the industry, with his most credited work spanning from 2014 to 2023 across 17 issues in our catalog.
