Akinobu Uraku (有楽 彰展, Uraku Akinobu, born September 22, 1977) is a Japanese manga artist best known for creating Tokyo Underground. Uraku won one of two grand prizes (the other winner being Diachiken Ise) at the 4th Enix 21st Century Manga Awards in 1997 for his work Yojō Mahō Shoriban.[1][2] This story was later published in the February 1997 issue of Monthly G Fantasy.
