He is best known for his long-running series ''[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure]]'', which was first published in ''[[Weekly Shōnen Jump]]'' in 1987 and has sold over 100 million copies as of 2016 in Japan alone. ==History of Araki== ===Early life=== Araki grew up in Sendai, Japan with his parents and younger identical twin sisters.<ref name="lecture" /> He cites his sisters' annoyances as the reason he spent time alone in his room reading manga, naming ''[[Ai to Makoto]]'' as the most important one to him.<ref name="lecture3">{{cite web |title=Hirohiko Araki Lecture Part 3: Questions and Answers with Araki-Sensei |url=http://comipress.com/article/2007/04/29/1896 |work=comipress.com |date=2007-04-29 |access-date=2013-01-19}}</ref> He supposes that his father's art books were his motive for drawing manga;<ref name="lecture">{{cite web |title=Hirohiko Araki Lecture Part 1: His Past & Motives |url=http://comipress.com/article/2006/06/30/387 |work=comipress.com |date=2006-06-30 |access-date=2013-01-19}}</ref> he was particularly influenced by the work of French artist [[Paul Gauguin]].<ref>{{cite web |title=Hirohiko Araki Lecture Part 2: Drawing Manga, Araki-Style |url=http://comipress.com/article/2006/07/25/516 |work=comipress.com |date=2006-07-25 |access-date=2013-01-19}}</ref> After a school friend praised his manga, he began secretly drawing manga behind his parents' backs. He submitted his first work to a magazine in his first year of high school.<ref name="lecture"/> All his submissions were rejected while other artists his age or younger were making successful debuts. He decided to go to the publishers' offices in Tokyo to find out why in person, taking a manga, ''Poker Under Arms'', that he stayed up all-night to finish.<ref name="lecture"/> The [[Shueisha]] editor he met highly criticized the work, but said it had potential and to clean it up for the upcoming [[Tezuka Award]]s.<ref name="lecture"/> ===Debut and ''JoJo's Bizarre Adventure''=== Araki left [[Miyagi University of Education]] before graduating, and made his debut under the name {{Nihongo|Toshiyuki Araki|荒木 利之|Araki Toshiyuki}} in 1980 with the [[wild west]] one-shot ''Poker Under Arms'', which was a "Selected Work" at that year's Tezuka Award.<ref name="lecture"/><ref name="1000manga">{{cite web |title=Jason Thompson's House of 1000 Manga - Jojo's Bizarre Adventure |url=http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/house-of-1000-manga/2010-12-23 |work=[[Anime News Network]] |access-date=2012-04-15}}</ref> His first serialization was ''Cool Shock B.T.'' in 1983, about a young magician who solves mysteries.<ref name="1000manga"/> But the first series to display his signature amount of [[Graphic violence|gore]] was 1984's ''[[Baoh]]''.<ref name="1000manga"/> It tells the story of a man who is implanted with a parasite by an evil organization, giving him superhuman powers, and follows as he fights against them. It was adapted into an [[Original video animation|OVA]] in 1989, the manga was released in the US by [[Viz Media]] in 1990 (in ''[[tankōbon]]'' form in 1995), but the OVA didn't get a stateside release until 2002. It wasn't until ''The Gorgeous Irene'' in 1985, that he really developed his signature art style of buff, muscular characters (it would later become more flamboyant).<ref name="1000manga"/> His next series would become his [[Masterpiece|magnum opus]], 1987's ''[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure]]''. The series begins in 1880s [[England]] and follows [[Jonathan Joestar]] (JoJo) and his adopted brother [[Dio Brando]], who eventually tries to kill their father in order to obtain his share of inheritance.<ref name="1000manga"/> When confronted, Dio puts on an ancient mask that turns him into a [[vampire]]. JoJo then learns a breathing technique called ''hamon'' which grants JoJo various powers to combat Dio. He then travels to Dio's castle to kill him. Subsequent arcs of ''JoJo'' follow the descendants of the Joestar family, and many are set in different parts of the world. [[Stardust Crusaders|Part 3]], which would become the most popular part in the series, downplays the vampire story and hamon technique and instead introduces the power of [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure#Stand powers|Stands]], which continues in the series today.<ref name="1000manga"/><ref name="MikeToole">{{cite web |title=The Mike Toole Show - Jojo's Mojo |url=http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/the-mike-toole-show/2014-06-01/.75101 |work=[[Anime News Network]] |access-date=2014-06-01}}</ref> Still being serialized over 30 years later, ''JoJo's Bizarre Adventure'' has been adapted into numerous other forms of media and the manga had 100 million collected volumes in print by December 2016.
