* HistoricalFantasy: As a sub-genre of UrbanFantasy, a common theme for Takahashi's works, several of her stories involve versions of historical Japan where magic and/or {{youkai}} are real. TimeTravel is a common plot for these, usually bringing a female protagonist from the modern world to the past; see ''Manga/FireTripper'', ''Manga/InuYasha'' and ''Manga/{{Mao}}''.

She is noted for [[PuniPlush a distinctive stylized rounded style]], sometimes [[OnlySixFaces to an excessive degree]], [[LoveDodecahedron intricate relationships]] among the characters, [[WeddingFinale happy-ending weddings]], [[PrefersGoingBarefoot barefoot characters]], lots of BelligerentSexualTension, and an ability with puns and allusions on both visual and verbal levels. One example would be a character from ''Manga/RanmaOneHalf'' whose name, depending on whether the reading is Chinese, Japanese, or English (not to mention ''which kanji'' you're using), means "hair care product", "unpolished gem", "mountain girl", "she whose breasts are as mountains"… all of which describe the character in some way. (Oh, and she also happens to be a master of WhatDoYouMeanItWasntMadeOnDrugs when it comes to certain elements in her mangas).

* WardingGestures: Most notably in ''Manga/RanmaOneHalf'', but they also appear in UrbanFantasy: Whilst she has done purely mundane slice-of-life stories like ''Manga/MaisonIkkoku'' and ''Manga/OnePoundGospel'', her other works.works generally take the real world and add fantasy, science fiction, or both to it. This started with ''Katte na Yatsura'', or "Those Selfish Aliens", her first published work, a one-shot about an ordinary guy who ends up being kidnapped and turned into a human bomb by aliens, fish-people and a secret government conspiracy.




to:

* {{Youkai}}: Takahashi is a big fan of traditional Japanese myths, legends and monsters, and whilst perfectly happy to both invent her own critters (especially in her earlier science fiction stories) or to put unusal spins on the myths for RuleOfCool or RuleOfFunny, she usually bases her fantastical elements on youkai myths. ''Manga/UruseiYatsura'' includes both traditional youkai and AncientAstronauts versions of the {{Oni}} and YukiOnna, and ''Manga/RanmaOneHalf'' has a depiction of the Yamato-no-Orochi as a giant disembodied dragon's head with seven smaller dragon's heads sprouting from it, for example.

* ArtEvolution: Her style ranged from being rounded and cartoony (Both ''Manga/UruseiYatsura'' and ''Manga/MaisonIkkoku'', to various degrees), to less-cartoony rounded (''Manga/RanmaOneHalf''), to more angular looking (''Manga/InuYasha'' onward)

* HandsomeLech: Works featuring a CasanoveWannabe may also include other lustful characters who are much more successful with the women, to the point of their attentions being seen as actively desirable. These characters tend to be the antagonists to some level, contrasting the usually more sympathetic treatment of the CasanovaWannabe.
