Biography

edit

Takahashi first learned about screenwriting when she was just entering middle school. Takahashi herself was a fan of drama and anime series and learned how to do screenwriting through them.[1] Later in middle school, she read a book by a scriptwriter whom she admired, which inspired her to become one herself.[1] While she was attending university, Takahashi submitted a scenario in a writing contest. She did not win because the story she wrote did not match the required theme, but despite this, the examiners were sufficiently impressed that they gave her a position working on television dramas.[1] Takahashi herself was an anime fan, so she leveraged this experience to get a position working on anime series instead.[1]

Around 2001, Takahashi started working on anime titles, specifically with the role of head screenwriter for Zaion: I Wish You Were Here.[2] In 2005, Takahashi did screenplay for Gankutsuou: The Count of Monte Cristo, which won the award for best TV series at the Animation Kobe that year.[3] In 2010, Takahashi was the head screenwriter for the anime adaptation of Nura: Rise of the Yokai Clan, based on the manga serialized in Weekly Shōnen Jump.[4] In 2021, Takahashi was the head screenwriter for the anime adaptation of Naoshi Arakawa's Farewell, My Dear Cramer.[5]
