Mutsumi Inomata (いのまたむつみ) was a Japanese illustrator and animator. She was born in the Kanagawa Prefecture on December 23, 1960, and passed away on March 10, 2024.
Works
Mutsumi Inomata worked in a good deal of anime and video games since the 80s as a freelance. She is best known for her work on the characters and cover art for the "Tales of" series from Bandai Namco.
Inomata's paintings had a very bright, distinct, colorful watercolor style.
Inomata and Dragon Quest
Inomata drew multiple illustrations for the Dragon Quest series. Her artworks served to illustrate the CD Theater dramas for the first six games in the series, as well as for some of the novelizations. She also illustrated the Rubiss novel series, giving the goddess a bright red hair color.
One of her most notable influences on the series as a whole is her portrayal of Psaro, giving him a bishonen look with wild long silver hair, an appearance close to that of Jareth, the character David Bowie portrayed in the movie Labyrinth (1986).
