* [[Author Appeal]]: [[White-Haired Pretty Boy|White Haired Pretty Boys]]s, racing cars (her favorite is a Ferrari 512M) and figure skating, namely. ''[[Sailor Moon]]'' was inspired by ''[[Wonder Woman (TV series)|Wonder Woman]]'', which gives the inspiration of most of the senshi having [[Combat Stiletto|combat stilettos]]. [[All Women Love Shoes|She likes drawing shoes.]]
* [[Author Avatar]]: Usagi is stated to be this in ''[[Sailor Moon]]''.
* [[Creator Breakdown]]: Naoko admits that she was burned out after finishing the final chapter of ''[[Sailor Moon]]''. She said that she needed a break, according to her ''Punch!'' memoirs; her body was breaking out in hives from five years' worth of stress that required multiple injections. While the manga company gave her five months, she had to spend those five months doing supplemental ''Sailor Moon'' material and planning ''another'' series. Her editor made her start a new story under contract before changing jobs to a shounen company. That's why although ''PQ Angels'' started strong, she didn't have the energy to finish it after Kodansha lost seven pages of the manuscript.

* [[Fanfic]]: Naoko loves reading ''[[Sailor Moon]]'' fanfic and encourages different interpretations of her work heartily.
* [[Hot Mom]]: She's pretty cute and has had two kids with Togashi-san.
* [[I Was Just Joking]]: When she came to her boss one day in 1990's1990s and said that she would like to draw a manga about a female superhero, the editor remarked: "Right. A female superhero. Maybe a schoolgirl at that, who is a crybaby, and yet saves the day?" And thus, ''Codename Sailor V'', and by extension, ''Sailor Moon'', was born.
* [[Lap Pillow]]: Says of [https://web.archive.org/web/20111201120357/http://mangastyle.net/book1/1-44.jpg this cute drawing:] "I love sleeping with my head on someone's lap. I also love having someone's head on my lap. Since both really put me at ease, I can be happy."
* [[Left Hanging]]: After Sailor Moon concluded, most of her next few series have lacked conclusions:
Line 25:
* [[Shout-Out]]: She makes one of them as part of an artbook drawing, since she loves when fans homage her works, and compliments it back as she can.
* [[Tender Tears]]: In an artbook she comments that "[[Third Person Person|Naoko]] is prone to tears,". She cries when she is overwhelmed by something beautiful and from touching letters from fans.
* [[What Could Have Been]]: A lot of the elements she wanted to include in ''Sailor Moon'' can be found in her artbooks, but most especially the ''Materials Collection'' she released as a [[Doujinshi]]. Tuxedo Mask was supposed to play a much larger part (and would have been named Mysterious 2098 Face!), Makoto would have been a smoker and sukeban leader... the list goes on.
* [[Write Who You Know|Write What You Know]]: She did [[Miko]] work in a shrine, using this experience as the basis for [[Sailor Moon|Rei Hino's]] character.
