## ● Aspiring to be a “Source Material Manufacturer” that handles everything from stage, drama, to film adaptations
Eichisha Co., Ltd. is a 'one-person publisher' run by its representative, Masayo Uemura. As a book writer, she has been involved in writing over 40 books for 20 years and established Eichisha in 2019. To date, Eichisha has published 17 books.
Meanwhile, she studied as a 69th term student at the Scenario Writers Association's Scenario Writer Training Course and has been providing scripts for plays, musicals, films, reading dramas, and radio dramas since 2014.
The bookmaking that this one-person publisher, Eichisha, aims for is 'bookmaking that doesn't end with publication but is premised on media development.' This is because they envision a future where they can create books that become the source material for manga, anime, plays, and films, and handle the entire media mix process seamlessly.
Among these, our company is particularly focused on the media development of books in the business and practical fields, which have not been extensively developed for media until now.
