She excels in character writing and keeps plot/story to a minimum to prioratize the characters, Timeranger is ambitious and mature while Ryuki changed the landscape both for anime and toku forever. Very solid writer and has barely any dips in quality, Den-O however I would argue has some problems but mostly due to her main trope

Love your work on jojo. She's a superior to Mari okada when it comes to script writing.

OOO was the series that really got me into Kamen Rider. Ryuki and OOO are amazing, Den-O is not that good for me but I freaking enjoyed it as well.

Now watching Timeranger and Shinkenger and those are very good as well.

And JoJo anime is amazing as well.
