Morgan695: The article is new and long enough and QPQ was done. The page is fully cited inline, but all the references are in Japanese. I've used Google Translate to verify at least some of the information, such as sales and dates, but I'm assuming good faith that all the information was correctly introduced to the page and nothing was copied. I'd just recommend expanding the lede with a couple sentences about the group's fame and last appearance.
With regards to the hooks, they are both pretty good, but I'd say ALT1 seems much more interesting, and I'd recommend using that one over the other. As a new reviewer, I'd appreciate a second opinion before closing this review. Thanks!
