Takuboku Ishikawa (石川 啄木, Ishikawa Takuboku, February 20, 1886 – April 13, 1912) was a Japanese poet. Well known as both a tanka and "modern-style" (新体詩, shintaishi) or "free-style" (自由詩, jiyūshi) poet, he began as a member of the Myōjō group of naturalist poets but later joined the "socialistic" group of Japanese poets and renounced naturalism. He died of tuberculosis.
His major works were two volumes of tanka poems plus his diaries:
Ishikawa wrote some of his diaries in a Latin script transliteration of Japanese so that his wife could not read them.[1]
A fictionalised Ishikawa appears in the anime Woodpecker Detective's Office.
Ishikawa is summoned as a Pseudo-Servant in the body of Makidera Kaede in the Fate/Grand Order X Himuro's World crossover episode.
Ishikawa also appears in Golden Kamuy, as an ally of Hijikata Toshizō.
