カルロ・ゼン

Zen released 'Youjo Senki' the 31th of October 2013, which jumpstarted their career due to the success of the light novel. The series would later be adapted to manga, anime and a movie. The novel and manga are being translated into English by Yen Press.

The author also participated in scenario writing for the game adaptation of 'Chaos Dragon: Chaos War' and the original story creator of 'Jyūma no Reza Nation'.

They love Humanities and Social Science, especially when associated with International Relations and History, which might have played a huge role in the creation of Youjo Senki in the first place. They're a huge fan of simulation and strategy games, especially Paradox Interactive's. They're also a Toshiya Wakabayashi fan, the original creator of Tsurezure Children.

The author often jokingly says they're not good at deadlines or they're a pastafarian and caffeine addict.
