Not finding any signs of independent notability. Her name comes up in articles about Maximum the Hormone but only in passing, and certain search terms bring up more results for the fluffy mascot who took her place one time a few years ago than for her. Unless she's getting more coverage in Japanese media that I don't have access to, I think this page should be redirected to the band's. QuietHere ( talk | contributions) 05:39, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
From now on, please leave your comments on this discussion page where they're meant to go. And if you have access to those Japanese sources you mention then please provide them here. I couldn't even find coverage that identified Kawakita as Nyango Star so if such a piece exists, it would be very helpful. QuietHere ( talk | contributions) 11:39, 21 April 2023 (UTC)Nao Kawakita is relevant, but the sources aren't haven't been provided. Therefore, I feel that as long as more information is added to the article, the article should stay. Most of the sources and relevant news stories about her are in Japanese, and probably haven't been added as they are less likely to appear in English search results. I did also see, however, that even a simple English-based search on news about Nao Kawakita that there were articles about her involvement with the city of Kuroishi City, Aomori-ken in the north where farming is common. According to the articles, including this one by Vice, Nao Kawakita has been performing under the name Nyango Star, a cat-apple hybrid mascot (known as yuru-chara in Japanese) who is working to fight the decline in agriculture in Japan by performing songs and getting children excited about farming and food. I would say that is at least one example of a few other articles she could be linked to. And there's not to mention, much of Maximum the Hormone's history and influence on Japanese Nu Metal culture isn't detailed or linked to as well. MichaylaGussler ( talk) 11:18, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
