Tohjoh Asami's art

This has been bothering me for quite a while. When I read her work, sometimes it feels like more than one person is working on it. The style isn't really consistent.
For example, in chapter one of Love Prism the art seems to shift into an older style after the er, sex scene. Then in chapter two, the style changes after a few pages and then it changes again.
AND THEN, in Haginokouji Seiya-Sama No Ran, there are once again differences in the art style from chapter to chapter.
Am I the only who notices this? 😢
Asami Tojoh is dead...

Those were written before she died, though.
I try to avoid these kinds of BL, but Tohjoh was pretty popular for a while, and nearly all popular mangaka have assistants. I'm sure someone else was drawing some of the other pages, and the person wasn't good enough to imitate her style very well.
