Kazuo Wakihara (脇原 一雄) is a programmer at Sega of Japan, possibly former. He is best-known for his early work as one of the 4 people who made Columns, as one of its 4 developers, for both System C and Mega Drive[1]. Due to the name Takosukezou appearing the game's code, it may indicate this was a pseudonym of his at the time. He was later a main programmer for Sega CS2's various tactical games like World Advanced Daisenryaku and RPGs like Skies of Arcadia, and a recurring programmer for the Sakura Taisen franchise. When Sega WOW split into 3 different department in 2005, Wakihara ended up at Mobile Phone Contents Development Dept., where he remained until at least 2009[3].
