Works

Anno draws inspiration from the fashion world, and her work is noted for its detail which gives it a broader appeal than just the demographic it is aimed for.[1] She delves into the psychology of her characters.[2] Her manga and books have attained considerable popularity among young women in Japan. Though she primarily writes manga of the josei demographic, her most popular series, Sugar Sugar Rune, (serialized in Nakayoshi) is targeted at primary school-aged girls. In a recent Oricon poll, she was voted the number eight most popular manga artist among females and thirteen in the general category. Her manga Happy Mania was made into a television series in 1998, followed by Hataraki Man in October 2007.Script error: No such module "Unsubst". Sakuran was made into a movie in 2006.[3] More than 3 million copies were sold of Happy Mania.[4]

In the movie Japan Sinks, she has a cameo role alongside her husband; their characters were also married. The movie was directed by Shinji Higuchi, who, like her husband Hideaki Anno, is a co-founder of Gainax.[5]

Anno took a career hiatus in 2008, citing health reasons.[6] During this hiatus, Anno published essays in manga form about her life with her husband.[7]

In October 2020, it was announced Anno's manga Memoirs of Amorous Gentlemen will be adapted into a Broadway musical. It will be the first Japanese manga to be adapted into an American musical.[8]
