Other Works:

Hatsu’s first work to appear outside of magazines was Mimizu Tenshi* (ミミズ天使), based on Fredric Brown’s short SF story The Angelic Angleworm, in the anthology Fredric Brown wa Ni-do Shinu (フレドリック・ブラウンは二度死ぬ), published by Asahi Sonorama under Asahi Sonorama Comics and Sun Comics - Strawberry Series.

In addition to contributing the short piece Yume no Zankou* (夢の残香), she also edited the ladies’ title Yuurei Comic Anthology:  Nemurenu Yoru ni (幽霊コミックアンソロジー　 眠れぬ夜に), published under Kisoutengai Comics (奇想天外コミックス) by Tairiku Shobo (大陸書房).

Hatsu has written a number of romantic comics under Shogakukan (小学館)’s Petit Flower Comics.

  reprinted under Shogakukan Bunko (小学館文庫)

  reprinted under Shogakukan Bunko
• Ikoku no Hanamori (異国の花守) and the sequel Ikoku no Hanamori:  Hana no Koe (異国の花守　 花の聲)
  a single volume of Shogakukan Bunko has been released (I don’t know whether this contains both volumes of the original release or just the first)

One ladies’ title appeared under Hakusensha’s Jets Comics:  Yoru no Yasashii Te (夜のやさしい手).  It has now been rereleased under Hakusensha Bunko.  And Hatsu also did one romantic girls’ comic from Shinshokan (新書館)’s Paper Moon Comics:  Sazameku Kin no Nami (さざめく黄金の波).

She has illustrated many books.  A quick summary, not including those cases where apparently only the cover illustration is by Hatsu:
