The Manga of Ryuusuke Mita
Introduction
Ryuusuke Mita may not be a very well-known name outside of Japan, but
the anime based on one of his manga has been very well-received. Most
western fans are familiar with Dragon Half, the two-part OAV that
has been commercially translated by ???. Some fans may also have
actually read the manga that had been serialized in Dragon
magazine up until the Spring of 1994, when the series ended. However,
very few people are aware of the follow-up series that Mita created for
Comic Dragon -- Dark Hair Captured.
I had created a character guide for Dragon Half, and had summarized some
of the manga chapters. In January 1997, I did the same for Dark Hair
Captured. And, because of the growing number of files associated with
Mita, I gave him his own page on my web site.
If you liked Dragon Half, I hope that you find this page useful. As
always, I am happy to give credit to anyone that can help me add
information to these pages.
