A lot of his newer one shots were more tragic type based, but that was the only indicator I can think of. But since most of those were in the TMOHS universe, and some were from Kyon's standpoint...
He left a lot of good stories unfinished, but they are still good reads, even some of his older works. Like Process of Elimination, or Diamonds in the Rough, or even the lesser known Rursus Iterum.
His newer stuff included mostly The Meloncholy of Haruhi Suzimiya. and included Kyon Big Damn Hero.
