Shotaro Ishinomori (石ノ森 章太郎, Ishinomori Shōtarō, 25 January 1938 – 28 January 1998), né Onodera (小野寺 章太郎, Onodera Shōtarō), was a Japanese manga artist and cartoonist. Known as the "King of Manga" (漫画の帝王 (Manga no Teiou) or マンガの王様 (Manga no Ousama)),[2][3] he is regarded as one of the most influential manga artists of all time.[4] Outside of manga he is also one of the most prolific creators in the history of anime, tokusatsu, and Japanese superhero fiction,[5] creating several immensely popular long-running series such as Cyborg 009, the Super Sentai series (later adapted into the Power Rangers series which Ishinomori has also been credit for co-creating), and the Kamen Rider series. He was twice awarded by the Shogakukan Manga Awards, in 1968 for Sabu to Ichi Torimono Hikae and in 1988 for Hotel and Manga Nihon Keizai Nyumon.[6]
He was also known as Shotaro Ishimori (石森 章太郎, Ishimori Shōtarō) prior to 1986, when he changed his family name to Ishinomori by adding the no (ノ) character in katakana.
