Mamoru Tsuchiya
Writer (born 1936) of books on bullying, school refusal and children's mental health. Tsuchiya provided the original concept for the anti-bullying manga Genki Yade (1995), scripted by Ryūji Tsugihara and drawn by Junji Yamamoto; the story was based on "Watashi no Ijimerare Nikki" (1993), an account of the bullying suffered by Tsuchiya's eldest daughter, which the two co-authored. Other books include "500-nin no Ijimerare Nikki" (1994).
