Her works provide examples of:

- Typecasting: In the early 2000s, especially around 2000-2003, she was usually cast as the main character of anime series for girls airing on Mediaset (Kodocha, Mizuiro Jidai, Ojamajo Doremi, Hamtaro) often dubbing the main Stock Shoujo Heroine. While she has been an active voice actress for decades, she rarely dubbed this type of character in the 80s and 90s.
