Since writing her debut short story "Pajama de Ojama" ("An Intrusion in Pajamas"), Watase has created more than 80 compiled volumes of short stories and continuing series. Because of her frequent use of beautiful male characters in her works, she is widely regarded in circles[which?] as a bish?nen manga artist.[citation needed] In October 2008, Watase began her first sh?nen serialization, Arata: The Legend in Weekly Sh?nen Sunday.
