What is Kirioka Sana's style like?

https://twitter.com/otome_otogi/status/1425852005122154497 The cute deformed characters are lively and the style is characterized by a heartwarming and heartwarming style. In addition, the background depictions of the era and the state of things at the time, as seen in Taisho Maiden Fairy Tales, are drawn after careful research. I think the character design matches the nostalgic feeling of the Taisho era very well. On the other hand, the story structure is solid, with a clear beginning, development, twist and conclusion, so I felt that I could read it from start to finish without getting bored. I also felt that it was distinctive that the story is livened up by a bomb-like story in a heartwarming development.
