==Biography==
Noda was born in [[Kitahiroshima, Hokkaido|Kitahiroshima]], [[Hokkaido]], Japan.<ref name="Natalie"/><ref name="Name"/> His great-grandfather was a military settler in Hokkaido and veteran of the [[Russo-Japanese War]]; Noda named the protagonist of his manga series ''Golden Kamuy'' after him.<ref name="Asahi"/> After moving to Tokyo at the age of 23, he entered the manga industry as an artist assistant.<ref name="Natalie"/> Noda was an assistant to [[Mitsurou Kubo]] for two years, and later worked under {{ill|Yasuyuki Kunitomo|ja|国友やすゆき}}.<ref name="Natalie"/> He made his debut as a manga artist in 2003, with the [[One-shot (comics)|one-shot]] {{nihongo||恭子さんの凶という今日|Kyōko-san no Kyō to iu Kyō|"Kyoko-san's Bad Day"}} published in ''{{ill|Monthly Young Magazine|jp|月刊ヤングマガジン}}''.<ref name="Konomanga"/><ref name="MangaTies"/> His second one-shot story, 2006's {{nihongo||ゴーリーは前しか向かない|Gōrī wa Mae Shika Mukanai|"The Goalie Always Faces Front"}}, won a {{ill|Tetsuya Chiba Award|ja|ちばてつや賞}} in the Young Artist division.<ref name="MangaTies"/><ref name="Chiba"/> 

After working as an artist assistant for nearly a decade, Noda made his serialized manga debut in 2011 with ''[[Supinamarada!]]'', serialized in ''[[Weekly Young Jump]]''.<ref name="Asahi"/> After ''Supinamarada!'' was a commercial failure, Noda took a year before developing his next series, 2014's ''[[Golden Kamuy]]''.<ref name="Asahi"/> The series would become a widespread critical and commercial success, and won the [[Manga Taishō]] in 2016<ref name="Taisho"/> and the [[Tezuka Osamu Cultural Prize]] in 2018.<ref name="Tezuka"/> Following the conclusion of ''Golden Kamuy'' in 2022, Noda announced that he would relaunch  ''Supinamarada!''.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Pineda |first1=Rafael Antonio |title=Golden Kamuy's Satoru Noda Relaunches Supinamarada!

Little is known about Noda's personal life.<ref name="Asahi"/> Though he maintains an online presence and is interviewed by the press about his work, he does not make public appearances; upon winning the Manga Taishō in 2016, the award was accepted by his editor, with Noda delivering an audio-only acceptance speech.<ref name="Speech"/>

==Style==
Noda draws using [[digital illustration]] exclusively.<ref name="Konomanga"/> While Noda is noted for conducting in-depth research on subject material that appears in his manga,<ref name="Natalie"/> he has stated that he is not interested in maintaining strict historical accuracy in his work, citing historically inaccurate elements in ''Golden Kamuy'' such as [[skiing]] and certain firearms that were added for dramatic effect.<ref name="Konomanga"/>

Noda cites ''[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure]]'' creator [[Hirohiko Araki]]{{efn|In the official ''Golden Kamuy'' fanbook, when asked which writer influenced him the most, Noda answered [[Hirohiko Araki]], who is the creator of ''[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure]]''. However in the same interview, he states that he doesn't intend to include ''JoJo's'' parodies in ''[[Golden Kamuy]]''. In chapter 145 of the manga, the main character, Saichi Sugimoto, rapidly releases a fast barrage of punches followed by after-images of himself. The page itself resembles panels from chapter 46 and chapter 69 of ''[[Stardust Crusaders]]'', which is the third part of ''JoJo's Bizarre Adventure''; however, Noda notes that this was actually a reference to ''[[Fist of the North Star]]''.<ref name="Fanbook"/>}} and the manga ''[[Keiji (manga)|Keiji]]'', ''[[Kinnikuman]]'', and ''{{ill|Bloody Stumps Samurai|jp|血だるま剣法/おのれらに告ぐ}}'' as among his influences.<ref name="Konomanga"/> Hallmarks of his work include visual references to [[pop culture]], and narratives that juxtapose [[Gag cartoon|gag comedy]] against violent or dramatic moments.<ref name="Natalie"/> Handsome and muscular men are a recurring element of Noda's work; he has voiced his distaste for {{transliteration|ja|[[bishōnen]]}}-styled manga, and has stated that he "draw[s] without compromise the beautiful bodies of men."<ref name="shimbun"/>
