After graduating from Oita Prefectural Hitarinkou High School, he matriculated in the cartoon design program of the cartoon arts department at Kyushu Designer Gakuin. After graduating, he moved to Tokyo and started drawing his manga works.

In 2006, he applied for the Magazine Grand Prix known as MGP promoted by Kodansha Ltd. and his work Attack on Titan was given the "Fine Work" award. Originally, he offered his work to the Weekly Shonen Jump department at Shueisha, where he was advised to modify his style and story to be more suitable for Weekly Shonen Jump. He declined and instead, decided to take it to the Weekly Shonen Magazine department at Kodansha Ltd.

In 2008, he applied for the 80th Weekly Shonen Magazine Freshman Manga Award, where his work ["Heart Break One"]( was given the Special Encouragement Award. His other work "orz" was chosen as a selected work in the 81st Weekly Shonen Magazine Freshman Manga Award.

In 2009, his first serialized work [Attack on Titan](https://anilist.co/manga/53390/Attack-on-Titan/) appeared in Bessatsu Shonen Magazine, a monthly magazine. It later was awarded the Shonen category of the 35th Kodansha Manga Award in 2011.
