He was a member of the conservative Rokujō school of poetic composition, and Donald Keene has called him a "mediocre poet".[9] Suzuki et al., however, say that his brilliant poetry scholarship put him at the top of the waka world in his day.[10]
He was one of the first to apply rules of choosing themes, participants and judges in the uta-awase poetry gatherings.[11] His standards of judging poetry, made him a rival of Fujiwara no Shunzei.[12]
About 1165, Emperor Nijō commissioned him to compile a waka anthology, which became the Shoku Shika Wakashū (続詞花和歌集, "Continued Shika Wakashū", also called Shoku Shikashū).[6][13] He compiled twenty books of 998 poems, a much larger anthology than its namesake, and submitted to the emperor expecting for it to be recognized as the seventh imperial anthology.[13] The emperor died before its completion, and it remains consigned to the status of a private collection.[6][13] Ultimately ninety-four of his poems were included in imperial collections.[6]
