Sen Takatsuki (b. March 25, 2050) is a Japanese-born author and former programmer, best known for her award-winning manga series Black Hole Girl. Originally born in Boston, UCAS, and an Ex-NeoNet SINner, as part of a NeoNET corporate program, Takatsuki was trained from a young age to become both a software developer and a public-facing ambassador for the corporation. Throughout her early career, she balanced technical work with a role as a spokesperson, reflecting NeoNET's vision of blending innovation and personality.
 
After NeoNET's collapse,  Takatsuki moved to Japan, where she found her true calling as a Mangaka. She studdied under Junji Ryuuji and Ishida Amiya at Studio ShoeDensha. Her unique blend of storytelling and art quickly earned her acclaim. In 2081, she received the Naoki Prize for Black Hole Girl, which became a cultural phenomenon. Her works are noted for their distinctive style and narrative depth, blending humor, horror, and complex themes of identity.
 
In 2084, a severe earthquake struck, leading to the loss of Takatsuki's left arm and right leg. Despite the physical and emotional toll, she moved to Seattle with her friend and publicist, Nishioka Nishiki to recover and continue her creative work. The duo has not since returned to Japan or ShoeDensha, citing Takatsuki's recouperating as an artist after her injuries.

Background

Takatsuki Sen, originally created in a NeoNET lab as a prototype test human, began her career as a programmer and 'mascot' for the megacorporation after reaching the age of 18. Until then, she was schooled and trained to be as charismatic as possible. Day to day she would do basic coding structure, bug testing, and buddy-coding at night, and during the day She'd go on to sit next to her bosses' boss during press conferences. She was designed to be a public facing brand ambassador as part of a future-proofing initiative, though the program ended when the company eventually went under. She was one of only three designed for this program. 'Soaring over the competition! Innovation starts and ends with NeoNET!".

All during her work meetings and trainings, she would always draw and doodle. She started an online webcomic in the style of her favorite Manga, [Fire!kick], and gained moderate success. When NeoNET collapsed, she had a few choices on what to do with her SIN. Many corporations wouldn't touch her, but she applied to both Ares and Horzion. She was neither technically proficient enough for ARES nor flashy enough for Horizon. Given her status as a SINner, she was granted permission to find somewhere to live, and after applying to and being granted SIN status for the Japanese Imperial state, she moved to Japan to pursue her passion for manga.

Quickly rising to international fame with her groundbreaking work [Black Hole Girl], afording her the prestigious Naoki Prize in 2081, Nib found her calling, and true passion within her field. Her career thrived until a devastating earthquake left her with severe injuries, including the loss of her left arm and right leg.

Her friend and publicist, Kurukuru, joined her on the move to Seattle, where they both sought a fresh start.
