Takizawa Bakin was a prominent writer of [[Edo period]] fiction. His most popular works are likely ''[[Hakkenden|Nansô satomi hakkenden]]'' ([[1814]]-[[1842]]), and ''[[Chinsetsu yumihari tsuki]]'' ([[1807]]-[[1811]], a tale of [[Minamoto no Tametomo]]).<ref>William Fleming, “The World Beyond the Walls: Morishima Chūryō (1756-1810) and the Development of Late Edo Fiction,” PhD dissertation, Harvard University (2011), 96.</ref>

Bakin also wrote the first widely distributed Japanese-language version of the ''[[Suikoden]]'', published serially from [[1805]] to [[1835]], with illustrations by [[Katsushika Hokusai]].
