During this period, he expressed his ideal of transforming the countryside in the form of literature and created a large number of unique poems and fairy tales. However, its value was not recognized at that time, and only one of its fairy tales received a manuscript fee, and almost no one cared about other self-published fairy tales. It was after his death that his fame rose and his works came out one after another. People finally found his messy manuscript in his hospital bed during his lonely years of living alone. What is displayed in front of people is a colorful fairy tale world. Since then, his works have attracted the attention of literary circles and the attention of the whole world. Now they have been translated into 14 languages.
Most of his fairy tales are set in a romantic and fantastic fictional world, full of idealism, but with a strong religious color. His masterpieces include Night on the Galaxy Railway, Hotels with Various Rules, Crossing the Snow, etc. Among them, The Wind and Saburo and Night on the Galaxy Railway have been made into movies.

At the age of 37, he left a lot of manuscripts and bid farewell to his short life.
