1* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: Lots of it, with ''Music/ShosoStrip'' and ''Music/KarukiZamenKuriNoHana'' being perhaps the most frequently cited examples. ''Heisei Fūzoku'' and ''Sanmon Gossip'' are no slouches either.
2* BrokenBase: The work up to and including ''Sanmon Gossip'' and ''Sports'' is generally quite well loved, but her output in more recent years has somewhat divided the fanbase, particularly after the split of Tokyo Jihen. Some fans feel that she's just treading water stylistically and compositionally, while others still like her recent output just fine.
3* GrowingTheBeard: Shiina Ringo's early work is very good Japanese rock music, but it is almost universally agreed among fans of Japanese music that ''Kalk Samen Kuri no Hana'' is the album where she graduated from being "very good" to being "genre-defining". Its leading single "Stem", which is featured in a different arrangement on the single release, is generally considered to be where she first established this level of quality.
4* HilariousInHindsight: Shiina looking an awfully lot like {{Music/Kyary Pamyu Pamyu}} on the album cover for ''Shōso Strip'', which also doubles as bait of sorts for any new listeners who expect something similar to Kyary only to end up with something completely different.
