The Comic Artist and his Assistants (Manga)	comment	Aito Yuuki is a newcomer comic writer who has just started his own work. However, he is still new to conveying character expressions, so he frequently asks his long-suffering assistant, Ashisu Sahoto, to volunteer for this purpose, even as they frequently try to make their deadlines and keep their manga afloat. Except Aito has to learn to tone down his incredible perversions, forcing Ashisu and Otosuna Mihari, the editor of their manga, to try and keep his mind on the task.Much Hilarity Ensues.The Comic Artist and his Assistants (Mangaka-san to Assistant-san to) is a gag manga written and illustrated by Hiroyuki, which was serialized in Square Enix's Young Gangan magazine from 2008 to 2012 and compiled into 10 volumes.

He then doesn't like the "new" Mihari that's in front of him, though she tells him she's probably only going to ever be an A-cup anyway. He then cheers because of that, and she cheers because her breasts grew slightly.

The Comic Artist and his Assistants (Manga) / int_25b5600	comment	Captain Ersatz: Aito's manga is part of a whole sub-genre of panty fanservice manga, but it bears the most resemblance to Strawberry 100% (a scene Aito's drawing of a boy asking the girl he likes to lift her skirt and show him her panties is drawn almost identically to a similar scene in the other manga). Whether this is a Shout-Out or a Take That! isn't quite clear. The magazine his manga serializes, GonGon Comics, is a clear stand-in for Young GanGan, the magazine this manga serializes.

EIC Minano is actually a fair bit older than Sena, and looks like she's around eight. In fact, the first time we see her in Chapter 5, she was telling to tell Aito what exactly was his problem with his manga—too much fixation on Panty Shot and—by pretending to be a random reader. For the whole time, Aito thought she was a little girl, rather than a women supposedly older than he is.

The best example is chapter 56, when Minano knows Aito hasn't recognized her yet and only sees her as a child. She actually suggested Aito will try to molest her. Aito spent several pages clarifying despite how perverted he is, doing a little girl is plainly squick. In episode 11, while a drunk Sena visits him, she starts stripping down to give the cats Aito was watching for some neighbors a bath. He calls Branya to provide a convenient censor as she strips. He also doesn't peek at her while she's attempting to bathe them.

He later forces one out of her in the sequel by threatening to burn his manuscript for the next month of his manga. Though whether or not he took it as an actual confession is debatable.

It doesn't stop Mihari from misinterpreting the situation however, and she punches him while he's sleeping.

Aito may be an absolute pervert, but Ashisu and Otosuna both begrudgingly admit they like his manga, although it is frequently on the lower half of the rankings. Then again, many people who have appeared have admitted that they like it, and it also has a large and dedicated fan-base despite its ranking; Aito seems to be an Almighty Janitor when it comes to manga. The series itself points out in one chapter that Aito being in the lower half of the rankings is still a pretty decent accomplishment. For all the criticism Ashisu gives him about how he should write his manga, when she submits her own, it doesn't even make the runner up list. It's also been shown that Aito is actually brilliant when he has the right motivation, managing to create a second manga with consistently high popularity (burning himself out in the process) when he thought that maintaining his popularity would allow him to create his own harem. Super-Assistant Sena could also count as one, as she works at exorbitant rates and only then if she's in the mood. But she is really good at drawing at insane speeds. Meisei chases away any and all assistants he gets, leaving himself to handle everything, including extra projects, alone. Despite this his quality has apparently never slipped, he doesn't request extensions to his deadlines, and consistently holds the number two rank in popularity. Apparently GonGon Comics actively hires people like this, the Chief Editor claiming they need interesting people to make an interesting magazine.

Fortunately for Aito, Mihari is pretty forgiving, although they argue a bit on how much time he should get to spend on video games.

Lampshaded by the official character sketches by calling him a "mangaka of love and courage." 音砂みはり（おとすなみはり）, Otosuna Mihari: Otosuna means, don't drop it, but in context of deadlines for manga-ka, it means, don't miss (the deadline). Mihari means someone who watches over. She watches to make sure Aito doesn't miss his deadlines. 兎美都冥聖（とみとめいせい）, Tomito Meisei: Tomi to meisei (富と名声) means fortune and fame... which Tomito has achieved. 皆野まとめ（みなのまとめ）, Minano Matome: Min(n)a no matome means governs everyone. She's the chief editor, you see.

While the series is clearly sympathetic towards Aito and his fetishes, there's no doubt it made a point of satarizing how contrived and Pandering to the Base are those. Mihari and Ashisu like to remind that those plots don't conform with Real Life romance mechanics, and it was explicitly stated Aito's manga only sold well amongst otaku. However, that itself already brought Aito a small but stable and adequate level of income.

It doesn't help that she is easily the flattest of the three. Also doesn't help that Aito unintentionally reminds her from time to time. In episode 11, Aito is Genre Savvy enough to realize Mihari's breasts grew 2 millimeters simply by looking at her. He then doesn't like the "new" Mihari that's in front of him, though she tells him she's probably only going to ever be an A-cup anyway. He then cheers because of that, and she cheers because her breasts grew slightly.

The Comic Artist and his Assistants (Manga) / int_e68b72	comment	The Load: Having only recently learned how to draw note at least in the anime, the manga is never very clear on whether or not she possesses any skill, Rinna is useless as an assistant. She is however, good at being Aito's personal cheerleader.

The Comic Artist and his Assistants (Manga) / int_f63e468f	comment	Terrible Artist: In Mihari's Backstory, she actually wanted to be a mangaka, despite only having this level of art skills. Sahoto feels like this at times, due to her work not being good enough on its own and getting constantly rejected. In Chapter 99, Rinna showed Ashisu her first attempt in manga. While the story is fine, the art was terrible. In an odd example Aito actually likes his student's terrible art better than Ashisu's because, while Ashisu can draw better they lack character and personality, while his student's were plain but expressive.

He hasn't slept in three days when Mihari comes over, and the deadline is in three days. He literally looks like a zombie during much of this scene as a result, and then she accidentally spills ink on his manuscript the night before the deadline...

The Comic Artist and his Assistants (Manga) / int_fbd285b7	comment	Comically Missing the Point: Often, as Aito usually sees things through the lens of his Panty Shot fetish. In Panty Wars, Ashisu told him instead of worrying over what kind of panty shot he should draw, he should not draw it (i.e. tone down the fanservice). Aito sees that as giving the reader the imagination of the panty shot. Doubled up in A New Assistant Arrives. Mihari assigns Rinna, who has little or no art skills, as Aito's assistant. Aito furiously called Mahari to ask why is she sending him The Load. Turns out he forgot he had told Mihari he is fine with anyone as long as she'd hot—and Rinna sure is hot.
