27	* TalkingAnimal: Her earlier animal-themed manga didn't feature talking animals. This started with ''Pukupuku Natural Circular Notice'' back in 1999. Her more recent animal based works such as ''One Day A Letter Arrives from the Dog Kingdom'' don't feature animals talking due to having a more realistic setting.
28	* SliceOfLife: She loves this genre as seen in ''Pukupuku'' and ''Happy Happy Clover''.
