Who is he?

Takamiz is a magic creator in Japan. In 2013, he published the groundbreaking DVD, ‘The Cube”, in which the one hand solving technique (Takamiz Move) was shown for the first time in the history of Rubik’s Cube magic along with a number of effects applying this move. Takamiz can be attributed to the current trend of using the Rubik's cube within the magic community as many new releases are based on the (Takamiz Move) technique. Takamiz continued to push Rubik's cube magic forward by publishing the DVD, “The Cube Plus”, in which ‘any chosen color effects’ were described. He had a standing ovation at the 4F Convention in 2016 and 2017, whose world class performers are "invitation only".
