Shungiku Nakamura (中村 春菊, Nakamura Shungiku, born December 13, 1980) is a Japanese manga artist. She is most famous for creating Junjo Romantica: Pure Romance.^[1] Nakamura's distinct style of manga has been identified largely throughout Japanese and English yaoi fanbases. Her works usually include large age gaps between the seme and uke and characters with careers in the publishing industry (as depicted in Junjo Romantica and Sekai-ichi Hatsukoi). She often cowrites with Fujisaki Miyako, who authored the novels of Yoshino Chiaki no baai in Sekai-ichi Hatsukoi.
