Her debut as a manga artist was a one-shot called Fu Junai that was published in 2004 in the special issue of April of the Japanese josei manga magazine Petit Comic published by Shogakukan. Since then, she published all her works to date in this magazine. Fu Junai was also the first manga of the author published in Germany, where the title was translated as “Private Love Stories”, in April 2009.[2] Enjōji is currently working on the story Dear Brother!, released in October 2011.[3] Her hobbies include cats and traveling.
