Japanese screenwriter with a prolific career in anime television. She penned four episodes of the original Dragon Ball series and worked extensively across other major anime titles spanning multiple decades.
Miho Maruo contributed screenplay work to four episodes of Dragon Ball, helping to shape the narrative pacing and dialogue that brought Akira Toriyama's manga to life. As a screenwriter, she was responsible for adapting the manga's comedic timing and action beats into the natural flow of television episodes, a critical task during the early years of anime production when adaptation standards were still developing.
Her work on Dragon Ball coincided with an explosion of anime production in the 1980s, when series like Hamtaro, Kodocha, and various other titles were competing for airtime. Despite the demands of weekly television, Maruo maintained the charm and humor that made Dragon Ball beloved by audiences.
Beyond Dragon Ball, Maruo's career spanned dozens of anime and manga adaptations. She contributed to Dr. Slump, Chibi Maruko-chan, Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam, and the Gundam franchise more broadly. Her filmography also includes feature films like Colorful and Miss Hokusai, demonstrating range across comedy, drama, and action genres. Maruo's contributions helped establish television anime as a viable medium for complex storytelling.
