Old School FE Artist Spotlight #2: Tetsu Matsudaira (松平徹)
FE World Tour scan credits: MrTalkingDinosaur
Previous artist: Ryou Kitakami
WARNING: There's gonna be a few mentions of [18+] titles... Keep that in mind!
I guess this is a series now! On today's episode of the "Old School FE Artist Spotlight" we have; Tetsu Matsudaira!
Tetsu Matsudaira is a Boy's Love (BL) mangaka, as well as an illustrator and character designer that has been active since ~1990. He did character designs for the BL visual novel, Lしたいね！(2002). And for any old school BL fans, he illustrated a manga adaption of Sukisho (2001).
According to his defunct website, one of his favourite characters was Shinon. He even had a page dedicated to FE9 where he also mentioned that his favourite ship with him was Gatrie/Shinon. He also liked Ike/Shinon and Janaff/Shinon. (His homepage at the time even had a cute little GIF banner with Gatrie and Shinon!). At one point on his website, he used to have... FE5 ringtones? I'm guessing he recreated sound effects from the game.
Here is a list of his artist credits for the FE series:
Fire Emblem Genealogy of the Holy War: Gag Battle (Holy Warriors of Light)
FE World Tour (Vol. 1, 2, 3, 4)
But before he worked as artist in the FE series... He made doujinshi for it! Many of them, in fact. Here's a list of those titles, their dates and the topics they focused on (English titles are machine translated):
PON PON (1992) [General]
Sex, Lies, and the Devil Sword (1992) [Ogma/Navarre] [18+]
Navarre Returns (1994) [General]
HOFHOF (1994)
A Silver Night When Stars Fall (1995) [Marth/Navarre] [18+]
We'll meet in our dreams (1995) [Marth centric]
Children's Crusade (1996) [Finn centric]
It seems I've fallen in love (1996) [General]
Children's Crusade 2 (1996) [Finn centric + General]

Children's Crusade 3 (1997) [Finn centric]
Children's Crusade 4 (1997) [Finn centric]

His titles Ready Yet, You Chicken? (2025) [18+] and Drowning in Sweet Kahlua Milk (2025) [18+] are available to purchase in English if you'd like to support him. He has no active social media accounts, as far as I know.
I hope you enjoyed this post on one of FE's many contributing artists!
