* GenreAdultery: ''Penguin Highway'' is very different from his most well-known works. It is not set in Kyoto but in a [[WhereTheHellIsSpringfield deliberately vague area of Japan]], features an emphasis on sci-fi tropes rather than ones associated with Japanese folklore, and focuses on a prepubescent child and his peers rather than a young adult.

!!Morimi's works provide examples of the following:
* AuthorAppeal: Being set in Kyoto or even more specifically Kyoto University and talking up the various locales in Kyoto and cultural attractions, protagonists with NoNameGiven or NoFullNameGiven, MagicRealism, BoyMeetsGirl, and coming of age stories are frequently recurring elements in Morimi's stories.
* GenreAdultery: ''Penguin Highway'' is very different from his most well-known works; it's not set in Kyoto but in a deliberately vague area of Japan, features an emphasis on sci-fi tropes rather than ones associated with Japanese folklore, and focuses on a prepubescent child and his peers rather than a young adult.
* MagicRealism: Humans can casually come into contact with the magical and fantastic in several novels set in contemporary Japan, but very rarely deign to ponder on it beyond how it personally affects their lives.
* WriteWhatYouKnow: Morimi graduated from Kyoto University, hence the very specific recurring setting of Kyoto and the university in several of his novels.
