Gekko learned the painting techniques by himself from the design work of the painting on the ceramic and lacquer. After the study, he started self-publishing in 1877, and it made him known little by little. From 1882, he started the work of Kuchi-e and illustration. After that, he became one of the most famous artists.
Also, he was rated in the 7th place of the Ukiyo-e artist on "Guide of the vogue of Tokyo" in 1885. Considering that he was a newcomer in the Ukiyo-e field, and also, the rank at the time was generally related to the connections between the teacher and pupils, it was an unusual reputation.
