This should be a in a faq somewhere...

based on my personal investigation into the matter, I'd say that there's 80%-90% chance he's a guy. It saddens me but that's how the dice rolled. The sex of a manga-ka is usually not a secret; you can see it most of the time by their names. But there are often times when manga-ka deliberately tried to hide their sex to sell the series, like the manga-ka for Kindaichi intentionally wrote her name in a masculine way to hide the fact that she's a female writer of a shonen mystery manga. I think Yoshimizu is hiding for the same reason as well... by writing his name the way he did, he could have fooled people into believing he's female.
