Associated Tropes:
- Anti-Villain: With the exception of Magiquone/Arfoire, most of her antagonistic roles do come off sympathetic. She has at times branches out for more blatant bad guys like Omiko or Holly
- Ms. Fanservice: Many of her roles are attractive women with seducing personalities and/or Stripperific outfits. Litchi from BlazBlue is a notable example.
- Playing Against Type: While she's mostly playing usually good girls, or sympathetic villains, Magiquone/Arfoire is devoid of them.
- Star-Making Role: By default, it would be Azusa. However, considering that it never left Japan, she remained mostly unknown by the Western audience, until she got the role of Litchi.
- Woman of a Thousand Voices: Really, she goes from your resident Cool Big Sis, to an utter flirt, to a Tsundere, to (Occasionally Hammy) Villainesses... to robots.
Ufufu... it was such a fun description, Troper-san. I'll see you tomorrow then... *Beat* Ara? Aren't we supposed to be at The Other Wiki?
