A difficult one to assess. Possible ATDs are redirect to creator ( Mineko Ohkami ) or publisher ( Wings (manga magazine)). I couldn't find the coverage to establish it is WP:NOTABLE - it definitely exists but most sources are primary or unreliable. I'm aware I may be missing something from Japanese sources.

- Keep. Anime News Network is considered a reliable source by WP:ANIME. I also found coverage in Natalie: 1 2 3 With that said, the article is full of unsourced WP:FAN and WP:ORIGINAL that needs to be cut down. lullabying ( talk) 09:55, 6 July 2020 (UTC)

- Comment. In the current state it is pretty bad, but I'd hesitate to delete it without input from Japanese speakers. -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 01:47, 14 July 2020 (UTC)

- Keep per the sources already on the article and the sources found by Lullabying. If two different reliable sources cover this manga in six different articles, then it seems to meet WP:GNG. The "Characters" section would, however, need some heavy clean-up. Not a very active user ( talk) 16:27, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
