Chinese mangaka Xià Dá (夏達, or Ka Tatsu as it is rendered in Japanese) has amazed Japanese manga fans by dint of sheer cuteness.
She lives in the city of Hangzhou in the Zhejiang province of mainland China; despite her face and school uniform, she is 28-years-old.
A number of her works are currently available in Japanese, and currently she is serialised in Ultra Jump. A sampling seems to demonstrate she is not lacking in talent either:
Reactions, unanimously approving, range from “She’s a mangaka? Impossible” to “She’s certainly got the kind of face you creepy otaku are into.”
She seems to have a very promising career ahead of her, especially if she keeps wearing a schoolgirl outfit.

This has to be the best article about China in this site.
Moe Mangaka ftw! :D
This is not cute, Do not want more.
Xia Da moe moe
Do not want.
Goddess tag?
Wait, what? She's only three months younger than ME? Either these are some old pictures, or she got a double-dose of the of the asian girl youth genes. :P
If that's the case, she'll probably look loli until she hits mid-30s, at which point she'll start looking like she's in her 20s. :P
MUST BE NICE!
Oh well, at least I don't have to feel like a pedo thinking naughty thoughts about her. :3
She's 28..? By the Old Ones...
If "Lucky Star" was made into a real-life movie, she could totally play Konata and her mom, Kanata...
ew, look at her witch's nose
Do...I smell a jealous femanon?
i also dont like that nose
she could fix it...
(i am not first anon and i am male)
no, just someone disappointed in ugly 3d pig.
picture 14...
the difference between ps'ed photoshoot and real life is too much for me :(
wtf
she's 28??
I hate myself. T_T
Don't sweat it. It can't be helped.
Chinese version of Yui Horie =)
hi, i'm photoshop nice to meet you
apparently this loli is also a top pvp wow player (ranked 3rd on whatever server she is playing on)
Wow, a manga character has become alive. She is a half-elf.
Her artwork is fantastic!
...oh yeah, she is, too.
OMG. I almost fell for her. X3
I am not one that is into asian girls but DAMN i'd hit that!
What kind of badass suit is Snake wearing this time?
LOLI SITH!!
still can't believe that she's already 28 years old...
“She’s certainly got the kind of face you creepy otaku are into.”
Sounds like a statement by jealous women of similar age who are looking like they a dried up old bag in their 40s...
“She’s certainly got the kind of face GUYS are into.”- fixed.
interesting enough in picture 15 she looks more mature
combo win
I hope she'll grow up to be an av idol
But she's already grown...
mai waifu~
I'd say she looks a lil bit "Uighurish".
Maybe she's a Uighur.
How about no.
28? She looks like 14
show tits lil bitch or GTFO!
*fap fap fap fa-*
What? You're all thinking it.
I can't comprehend that she's 28, man. show me some proof. D:
Loli Milfs ftw.
WHAT. THE. FUCK!?
I know a Chinese girl around the 22 years and she looks older O_O
What some photoshop, a kiddy face and a seifuku can do... kinda like Kusumi Koharu, in her Koi Kana video she looks like a teenager :S
She's 28, I'm like...WTF!!
作为中国人 我表示毫不知情
Welcome to the HIGHLY UNFAIR WORLD :D
Beauty + Talent
Haha. I feel bad for the Aussies.

Translation:
Hyped by the media. Get a few random artist and draw a few works then throw in a pretty faced girl to boost her popularity.
1st epic win of china in loooong time
I am in LUV
she very cute for 28 years old....
whaaaaaaaaaaa
kaswaaaiiiii
loli looks
so perfect
28 haha xD
looks like a 7th grader <.<
wooaa... with a kind of face and her skill as mangaka like that.... she's so scarry man... she's beyond our world, time cant affect her, maybe she's manga herself, lol
This is china we're talking about, she's probably a stand in like that singing girl from the olympics.
The little bit of grey hair around her ears is cute.
I'd hit it.
she's just saying that to get publicity, stupid bitch, now i will Dl your shit translate it and throw it on the internet....
Reminds me of Kanata... Epic Wins
I bet she can take a whole fist!
DAMN CUTE!!...... like an idol. maybe she rather become an idol than mangaka.... ups...sory being mangaka is chosen like samurai ways...kakakaka......(but she's damn cute....ehe-he)
I thought she was 8 but she is 28, great scott she is the perfect woman she is absolutely perfect.
She is 28 years old and she looks 8. Also super adorable and has the cutest face I've seen, I can't really find anything wrong to criticize about her no fucking flaw.
Oh, and her works do look good too, she has style.
Well she just won a new fan.
Is it wrong that I am only interested in the model of the PSP that she is holding?
If it's held by her hands, I want it....
My soul enraptures in thy Heavenly sight!
O cursed spite, that ever was I born to witness such delight.
Too old.
In soviet China, loli is arrested for JB hitting on YOU!
(yeah, I know that'd be Russia, but still)
She's a pedophile's dream come true.
Hopefully the man that marries and has sex with her is arrested for committing such a horrible sin of defiling that face.
I MUST MAKE HER MINE!
so beautiful. :)
Times like these I'm glad I'm asian. One of the good asians, mind you, none of that scum cambodian/filipino shit. xD Almost inevitable that I'm going to end up with an asian girl. C: Whether I like it or not. :3
nice troll
>none of that scum cambodian/filipino shit
Excuse you?
look at his id first, then comment. Yeah, it's pretty tough for us good looking asian guys.. all good looking asian girls are either attracted to bad boys, or really rich bad boys..
God damn, she looked 14!
Her cuteness was beyond the edge of the human mind to process when she was 14...
Hence, they had to wait until she was 28 so the human mind can endure her cuteness...
...
...
Damn, her family bloodline must be 300% kawaii...
Attention Japanese: Reboot the live-action Jigoku Shoujo tv series and cast HER as Ai!!!

this is.... IMPOSIBBLe!!!
goddamnit i'm in love
fuck you internet, fuck you
lol ... I just can't believe that she's 28 years old no matter how many times I look at her pictures. It's just so hard to believe.
Darn she's my friend n she's 30 years old now.....
I know I play bad, but you can learn from me as a person who is not into a do, let's join the clan did not just want to make progress together DOTA do, are filled with love for the game of DOTA, right? I would like to, and we called him a good friend
pic 15 reminds me of nelly furtado
her nose is kinda odd on side angle parrot?
"she is 28-years-old."
..... *cries in the corner*
She is like the Otaku holy grail.
She is amazing pretty! *o* I am dazzled
28? i thought she was 16. fuck.
Another win from great china.
There're cuter fake lolis here in China, supposing you won't go for the real ones.
and why wouldn't we...?
Is it just me or am I the only one to notice the huge hump in her nose? The side views are less than flattering despite the gorgeous view from the front.
Still not enough to convince that 2d loli are less preferable to 3d.

Now that's real loli in school uniform.
Damn.. why can't they make them here? 28 here is worn out and past warranty.
Holy shit, she looks even younger than that fake, plastic surgery 20-year old girl.
Well, actually, no, that girl looked somewhat like a 10 year old, albeit a fake, synthetic, and somewhat freaky 10 year old.
@_@---sugoi
Good marketing move using a Japanese style sailor uniform. For those unaware, Chinese students wear tracksuits for their uniforms here in China :)
;_;.....that sounds aweful boring for guys...
ooo if you are in china can you tell us if you have many 15 year old looking 28 year olds...?
Well...
Not many,at least far less than the number of lolicons we have here in China.
汉奸!
Punishment for Traitors.

为什么?
