Unable to find reliable sources to establish notability:
All three web sources (1,3,5) contain only trivial mentions of the article subject and it is dubious that these are reliable sources to boot.
Reference 2 is not directly about the article subject at all, but instead used for background on scarification in general.
Reference 4 is a 187 page book, no page numbers are provided, and although there is one subsection of the book on body modification in general is devoted to scarification the TOC does not mention hanabira specifically but does specifically mention other techniques. (I was unable to verify the actual prose as I don't speak german nor have a full copy of the text available)
Additionally failed to find alternative sources either in English or searching in Japanese for a variety of derivative terms.
