Takehito Harada

Ever heard of Disgaea, Phantom Grave, or Makai Grave? Well, Takehito Harada is the artist and character designer whose hands brought these to life with his illustrations. Although he is known for having a wide repertoire ranging from cute to straightly bizarre, his mascot character Pleinair Allaprima is definitely on the cute side. She appears in a number of Nippon Ichi games and is often accompanied by a stuffed rabbit and a stuffed shark named Usagi-san and Same-san, respectively.

Harada is also the CEO of Studio ToOefuf and publishes doujinshi under the name Haradaya, such as his Pleinair Handbook.
