The success of "Teito Monogatari" provided him the necessary financial resources to fund his various natural history related compendiums. In 1987 he began publishing the "Atlas Anima", which introduced the works of Conrad Gessner and Georges-Louis Leclerc, Comte de Buffon to modern Japanese readers. Subsequently, this work is credited with eventually leading to a rediscovery of Western Natural History in Japan.
