I am a game designer and representative of the Japanese publishing label “Saashi & Saashi”. I started making board games and card games in my childhood. Although I had been away from game design for a long time, since my mid teens, I resumed game design after receiving a German board game from a friend in 2009.

In 2015, I established “Saashi & Saashi” with my wife and illustrator Takarai Takako. I’ve been working full-time since 2016. My motto is to create new appealing games that are born from a strong connection between mechanics and themes.
