All of Asada's manga were serialized in the monthly shōnen anthology ''Monthly Shōnen Jump'' (which has since been discontinued; ''Tegami Bachi'' now appears in its replacement ''Jump Square''). He made his debut in 1986. He acquired a fanbase with ''Mint: Sleeping Rabbit'', ''Renka'' by degrees, and his popularity improved with ''I'll''. In his personal life, he is part of a unit with Shou Tajima (best known for ''Psych'') and Takeshi Obata (best known for ''Hikaru no Go'' and ''Death Note''), and his creation activity with "AQUARIOS 3".
