هیروهیکی آراکی (荒木 飛呂彦, Araki Hirohiko) متولد 17 خرداد 1339 در شهر سندای استان میاگی[4] مانگاکا و نویسنده‌ی مجموعه‌ی ماجرای عجیب و غریب جوجو است که این پروژه‌ی ویکی بر اساس آن بنا شده است. او اولین اثر خود، وان-شات پوکر مسلحانه، را تحت نام مستعار توشیوکی آراکی (荒木 利之, Araki Toshiyuki) در سال 1359 به چاپ رساند و فعالیت حرفه‌ای خود را با بی تی پسر شیطانی، بائو و آیرین زیبارو آغاز کرد.
بزرگترین اثر وی، ماجرای عجیب و غریب جوجو، در پارت‌های متعددی نوشته شده است و پس از 30 سال همچنان در حال انتشار است. تا اردیبهشت 1400 در مجموع 130 جلد از مجموعه منتشر شده است و تا تیر 1398 صد میلیون نسخه به فروش رفته است.[5] سبک او به عنوان «رویکرد تجربی اما متمایزکننده» توصیف شده است.[6][7]
آراکی در طول سالیان به داشتن ظاهر جوان و تغییرناپذیرش معروف است. او شنا و تمرین در باشگاه ورزشی و استفاده از برنج هیتومِبوره را به عنوان روش‌هایی برای سالم ماندن بعد از 50 سالگی ذکر می‌کند.[9] در مصاحبه سال 1386 یوریکا، او توسط روانشناس و منتقد ژاپنی، تاماکی سایتو، تمجید می‌شود اما آراکی اظهار می‌کند علت اصلی که در پارت هفتم ماجرای عجیب و غریب جوجو به برنامه‌ی انتشار ماهیانه روی آورده است، عدم توانایی او در مدیریت چاپ و برنامه‌ریزی هفتگی مانند گذشته بود.[10] آراکی آشکار کرده است که به علت داشتن عمل جراحی دستگاه گوارش، دیگر نمی‌تواند خود را مانند گذشته کاملا به مانگای خود اختصاص دهد و تصمیم گرفته است بیشتر از زندگی لذت ببرد و فعالیت‌های دیگری مانند مسافرت و آشپزی انجام دهد.[11]
آراکی به داشتن سبک زندگی سالم زبانزد است. او از پیاده‌روی و دوچرخه‌سواری، به ویژه به زیارتگاه‌های ژاپنی لذت می‌برد. او این کار را به عنوان روشی برای رفع خستگی کار توصیه می‌کند و ورزش کردن را روشی عالی برای نظم بخشیدن به خود می‌داند. او ترجیح می‌دهد چیزهای زیادی با خود حمل نکند و فقط یک کت، آب و یک iPod را با خود به بیرون می‌برد.[12]
آراکی خانه‌ی اجدادی‌اش در شهر سندای را در زلزله‌ی 9 ریشتری توهوکو در سال 2011 در طی سونامی پس از زلزله از دست داد که باعث بهت و شوک آراکی شد.[13]
آراکی با آسامی آراکی (荒木麻美, Araki Asami, ملقب به چامی) ازدواج کرده است و دو دختر دارد. چند سال پس از آغاز فعالیت حرفه‌ایش، آراکی با آسامی در یک دورهمی آشنا شد و پس از سه ماه با هم ازدواج کردند.[14]
آراکی در شهر سندای همراه با والدین و خواهرهای دوقلوی کوچکترش بزرگ شده است. او اشاره کرده است اذیت و مزاحمت‌های خواهرانش باعث شد تا دوست داشته باشد تنها در اتاقش مشغول به خواندن مانگاهای کلاسیک دهه‌ی 70 میلادی مانند Ai to Makoto و کلکسیون آرت بوک‌های پدرش شود که باعث شد علاقه‌اش به رسم مانگا را کشف کند. به طور ویژه وی تحت تاثیر آثار نقاش فرانسوی پال گوگن قرار گرفت.[15]
Araki drew his very first manga while he was in fourth grade. He attended a prep school through junior high and high school, which was where a friend complimented him on a manga he drew for the first time. Ever since, he began to draw manga in secret of his parents.[16]
He began submitting work to publishers during his first year at Tohoku Gakuin Tsutsujigaoka High School;[17] however, all of his submissions were rejected.[16] Araki also applied his works to the Tezuka Awards, having at one point been nominated in the 14th edition in 1977 for a one-shot named "The Bottle" then submitted under the name Toshi Arakino (荒木之利, Arakino Toshi).[18] At the same time, other artists who were around his age continued to make big splashes with their debuts (Ex: Yudetamago, Masakazu Katsura). Araki could not understand why he was being rejected, so one day in 1979, he decided to pay a visit to an editorial department in Tokyo for direct feedback on his most recently finished work. At first, he intended to visit Shogakukan, which published Weekly Shōnen Sunday, but was intimidated by the size of their building, and decided to take his submission into the smaller Shueisha (Publishers of Weekly Shonen Jump) building next door. It was noon when he visited, but one rookie editor named Ryosuke Kabashima happened to be there. Kabashima, after reading the first page, promptly quipped "your white-out's leaked (You haven't fixed it)": he was criticized every time the editor flipped through each page. Araki, exhausted from having been up all night, felt like he was going to pass out, but was told to fix it up for the Tezuka Awards. Months later, Araki would submit a one-shot by the name of "Poker Under Arms", which won the runner up prize at the Tezuka Awards.[16][19]
Araki left Miyagi University of Education before graduating, and made his debut in 1980 with the aforementioned one-shot Poker Under Arms. He did graduate from the Sendai Design College. His first serialization in Weekly Shonen Jump was Cool Shock B.T. in 1983,[19] with his works Baoh the Visitor (1984) and Gorgeous Irene (1984) following soon after. His next series would become his magnum opus, 1986's JoJo's Bizarre Adventure.
Published in Weekly Shonen Jump between 1987 and 2004 and from 2004 to the present in Ultra Jump, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure represents Hirohiko Araki's primary brand and body of work.
The JoJo's Bizarre Adventure series brought fame to Araki as its popularity skyrocketed during the publication of Stardust Crusaders and Araki kept working on the series even after the end of the third part, which was the end of what he had planned for the stories beforehand.[20]
The dust jacket of every volume of JoJo contains a note to the reader; a relatively great source of Araki's direct opinions.
In terms of cartooning, a comparison can be drawn between Phantom Blood, Battle Tendency, and Stardust Crusaders (1987 - '92) and the hypermasculine (and highly dimorphic) anatomical ideals applied by Tetsuo Hara in Fist of the North Star, and referenced by Araki in relation to action heroes of the 1980s.[21] Diamond is Unbreakable ('92 - '96) marks a transition to a more intersexual model; while Steel Ball Run (2004 - '11) sees greater realism, along with further incorporation of ideals of beauty consistent with the mode in fashion design. When he started JoJolion (2011–present day), Araki expressed a will to draw in a looser style and things he never drew before. Hence, he says, he bust shots and increased the amount of white panels and included more white elements in his drawings, in contrast to the darkness of his style present in previous works.[22]
Reference to illustrations by artists including Antonio Lopez and Tony Viramontes informs a number of individual illustrations and character poses in Araki's work from 1987 - 1992; decreasing from then along with increased use of photographic references.[23] Limited examples of costumes borrowed from contemporary fashion design have been identified.
As a film fan, In the 1980s Araki noted the popularity of action movies and the muscular physiques characteristic of their stars (such as Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone). By this example, Araki would ponder; "Who is the strongest person in the world?". Subjects such as immortality and justice occurred to him as things that humans innately value and seek. Araki had also been on a trip to Italy two years prior to the creation of Part 1: Phantom Blood, where he identified the exaltation of overt human beauty characteristic of renaissance art. Araki was particularly struck by the aesthetic of the sculpture Apollo and Daphne by Italian sculptor Gian Lorenzo Bernini. The baroque sculpture's striking figures and realistic yet idealized bodies stuck in remarkable poses inspired Araki to heavily incorporate poses in his art and develop his own style.[24] Araki would combine these examples in the formulation of the basic plot and visual style of Phantom Blood.[21]
Araki has named Paul Gauguin and his approach to color theory as an influence.[25]
Araki has described his drawing method as "classical".[21] He has indicated admiration for Leonardo da Vinci in the text of the manga and otherwise; and in a video feature in JOJOVELLER, he is seen making visual reference to a book of Michelangelo's work[26] during the construction of a piece.
Manga that Araki has named as admirable or having had particular influence on him include Ai to Makoto by Ikki Kajiwara and Takumi Nagayasu, the most significant of his youth;[27] Ore wa Teppei by Tetsuya Chiba, which inspired him while in middle school to join the kendo club;[27] and Babel II by Mitsuteru Yokoyama, particularly influential for the concept of combat defined by special rules or laws.[21]
Araki has authored a book on the subject of Horror film and its influence on his work.
Araki has described his habit of naming characters and Stands after musicians and their works as "a simple hobby", and has indicated a strong preference for Western popular music.
