Benkyo Tamaoki (real name Sumi Toshihiko) makes hentai manga. But not "just" the kind of hentai manga that features as much overt sex as possible and little realistic storyline. Tamaoki's stories display a great sense of psychological detail and usually end in a refreshing way. He says about his work: "I want to create hentai manga that convey a feeling of everyday life". His first collection was 'Ero-i Hon' ('Erotic-ish Book') in 1995. His manga has been published in many magazines and also been published in the USA. One of his best-known​ manga is 'Blood: the Last Vampire'.
