Information About

Moto Hagio




Little of her work has been translated from the original Japanese. Following is a short list of those which have been translated:
  • '' A, A' '', which is currently in print and includes three stories entitled ''A, A' (A, A Prime)'', ''4/4 (Quatre-Quarts)'', and ''X+Y'' parts one and two.

  • ''They Were 11'', which is part of a compilation entitled ''Four Shojo Stories'' (currently out of print) which includes three other stories by two other artists. ''They Were 11'' is available on VHS as an Anime , in both Dubbed and Subtitled formats. Like most anime based on manga, there are various minor changes and omissions.

  • ''Hanshin'', a short story, which was published in issue 269 of The Comics Journal alongside an interview with Moto Hagio conducted by Matt Thorn .


'' A, A' '' and ''They Were 11'' have Science Fiction settings, and both ''They Were 11'' and ''X+Y'' include Transgender elements. The science fiction aspects in particular have led to Hagio's work appealing to manga readers who do not generally like shoujo manga.
