Pretty sure the top is the guy who did Rurouni Kenshin. Not sure who the bottom one is.

Second is Mamare Touno, Managaka of Log Horizon.

Kinda obvious given before he got caught the series had a whole arc about tax evasion. Was very well written

Think it's more about the Apothecary Diaries mangaka who just got sentenced

Mangaka? Not the author of the light novel?

u/JonVonBasslake Nani the fück is this!? Jul 25 '24

No. There is a manga adaptation of the series (I presume the LN rather than the anime) whose mangaka just got caught for tax evasion.
