Misaki

Description
Misaki is the original creator of the light novel series A Gentle Noble's Vacation Recommendation, which began serialization online in January 2014 on the user-generated novel publishing website Shōsetsuka ni Narō. The series was later acquired by TO Books, who have published it as a light novel since June 2018, with illustrations provided by Sando. As of October 2024, the light novel series comprises nineteen main volumes and two short story collections. The story follows Lizel, a man who finds himself transported to an unfamiliar city and, rather than panicking, hires an adventurer named Gil as a guide while he searches for a way home, treating his situation as an extended vacation. This premise emphasizes leisurely exploration and a laid-back approach to the isekai genre.

A manga adaptation of A Gentle Noble's Vacation Recommendation, with composition by 8Key and art by Momochi, began serialization on TO Books Comic Corona service in December 2018 and has been collected into eleven tankōbon volumes as of October 2024. The manga is licensed for English publication in North America by Tokyopop. An anime television series adaptation produced by SynergySP, with production cooperation from Ascension, has been announced and is scheduled to premiere in January 2026. The series is directed by Kenta Noda, with scripts by Yōsuke Suzuki and character designs by Akito Fujiwara. As of October 2024, the franchise has over 1.5 million copies in circulation across its light novel and manga releases.

The creator Misaki is not to be confused with other individuals who share similar names in the entertainment industry, such as the product designer known for Furrybones figurines, the Chinese doujin artist MAISAKI, the manga artist Misaki Saitō, or the writer Masato Fujisaki who created Misaki, Number 1!!. The available publication records for A Gentle Noble's Vacation Recommendation provide clear documentation of Misakis role as the original author, but no biographical details about Misaki as a person such as their real name, gender, age, or personal background are available from the verified sources.
