Hiro Arikawa, (in Japanese: 有川浩; Kōchi, June 9, 1972) is a Japanese writer of light novels or ranobe, that is, pulp literature.
She won the tenth annual Dengeki Novel Prize for new writers with Shio no Machi in 2003, which was published the following year. It is a love story between a heroine and a hero separated by age and social position in a Japanese military setting. Her subsequent titles have been incorporated into more prestigious literature. She achieved great success with Toshokan Sensō / Library War (2006), a dystopia in which, inspired by Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451, she imagines a Japanese society divided and confronted over issues of tolerance to censorship and freedom of speech; it was the first novel in a series on this theme, Toshokan Sensō, and won the Seiun Award in 2008.

She often writes about the Japan Self-Defense Forces and her first three novels about them formed a trilogy called Jieitai Sanbusaku / The Self-Defense Forces Trilogy.

Her work has been widely adapted into manga, television, and film, and Chronicles of a Traveling Cat / 旅猫リポート, has been translated into five languages, including Spanish, with the title A cuerpo de gato (2017). It is the autobiography of a cat in the first person.
