Naoko Takeuchi

Takeuchi Naoko

Takeuchi Naoko (武内 直子) (born March 15, 1967) is a manga artist who lives in Tokyo, Japan. She is the original creator of the famous manga/anime Pretty Soldier Sailor Moon. Naoko is currently living in Tokyo with her husband, Togashi Yoshihiro.

(Bishoujo Senshi Sera Muun) Takeuchi-sama graduated from Kyoritsu Chemical University, where she received a degree in chemistry. Planning to become a pharmacist, her senior thesis was entitled "Heightened Effects of Thrombolytic Actions Due to Ultrasound."

Contrary to popular belief, Ms. Takeuchi never used the phrases "Inner Senshi" and "Outer Senshi" in her manga. The anime sources never mention such phrases, either. Fans created both of those phrases, and we should not hold Ms. Takeuchi accountable because of the erroneous ideas that they entail.
