Inagaki was born in Osaka, moved to Akashi in Hyōgo Prefecture while he was in elementary school, and spent much of his childhood in Kōbe.
He graduated from Kwansei Gakuin Junior High School.
Inagaki"s works often dealt with themes including flight, astronomical objects, and erotic and romantic relationships among beautiful adolescent boys. His stories on the later topic, and his essays in Shōnen"ai no Bigaku, were an influence on early writers of the yaoi genre such as Keiko Takemiya.
