Kuniko Tsurita was a pioneering figure in alternative manga, defying gender norms and aesthetic conventions within the male-dominated “Garo” magazine scene of 1960s Japan. Her work, introspective and existential, explored identity, alienation, and feminism through stylized experimentation and poetic abstraction. Unlike the dominant gekiga realism of her peers, Tsurita’s panels often merged surrealist imagery with philosophical reflection, creating atmospheric narratives that challenged linear storytelling. As the first woman regularly published in “Garo”, she broke open space for female voices in underground manga. Her legacy continues to influence a new wave of manga artists embracing interiority and formal innovation.
