Crowning Moment of Heartwarming: In her very last Sailor Moon art book:

The people of the world, all of them, whether it is the wrong race or the wrong language or the wrong lifestyle, tend to only think about what we cannot share. But our brains are all the same. We are the same people. With everyone's strength, we can all share the same feelings. That much is obvious. But it won't come easily. My dream is (and I have many dreams), someday, to go out into the cosmos and gaze back at the Earth. Right now, even while at my desk (or lounging in my bed), I picture myself looking at the Earth while piloting a spaceship from far above.
We only have one Earth.
To be able to feel such joy is true happiness.
For being able to draw Sailormoon, I am truly grateful. To everyone, my deepest thanks.
In this book, to all the fans of Sailormoon around the world, I enclose my love.
Please accept, in the name of happiness everywhere.

Tough Act to Follow: The popularity of Sailor Moon was absolutely explosive, but it overshadowed her following manga.
