Looks traced or what? This somehow looks similar to Ken Akamatsu's style, whether it's in Magi-Negi or in the earlier Love Hina.

For example, Cirno's expression looks like Ku Fei and Marisa's looks like Asuna.

They seldom appear but there are a lot of animals, pets and also youkai with animal forms. I could see Orin as a cat, carrying a glass on her head or at least Marisa's Tsuchinoko doing the same.
