Hiroya Oku is a Japanese mangaka who has been producing manga as a profession since 1995. He is most famous for his work on the manga Gantz which runs weekly in the magazine Young Jump. His first work was HEN (Strange Love) which was hentai material. He is known for creating 'tit-motion trails' in HEN which were blurs that showed the movement of female character's breasts as they had sex or were engaged in otherwise ecchi situations. Many other authors have since used this technique while producing hentai manga. His least well known production is Zero One, which lasted only three volumes from 1999 to 2000 and never recieved an anime adaption like his other works have.
