Initial comments

 * "Later, Shueisha collected the chapters and published them in 18 tankōbon volumes" - is Shueisha the publisher? Would be worth mentioning who they are to unfamiliar readers (like myself)
 * Yeah. "its first chapter was published by Shueisha in the Japanese magazine Margaret in January 1973." Isn't this sentence enough to clarify it? If not, do you have a more specific suggestion? Gabriel Yuji (talk) 01:47, 4 January 2015 (UTC)


 * I would thinking that the lead could summarise the article better. For instance the last paragraph could contain more content from the "Reception and legacy" section. It could expand a little from "It is considered a classic by anime and manga critics" - what did critics really think about it?
 * This part summarize the only three English-language critics which I could find (which is the last paragraph of "Reception"). As a summary, I've tried to give readers somewhat a consensus of them. What would you include? Gabriel Yuji (talk) 01:47, 4 January 2015 (UTC)


 * "It was directed by Osamu Dezaki and lasted 26 episodes" - were all the episodes directed by Osamu Dezaki?
 * He is the credited as the general director. Individual episodes have not its directors specified. How should I put it? Gabriel Yuji (talk) 01:47, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Maybe something like "Osamu Dezaki served as the general director of all 26 episodes", or leave it alone? ☯ Jag  uar  ☯ 13:36, 4 January 2015 (UTC)


 * "it was broadcast by Nippon Television from April 10, 1978, and March 31, 1979" - should this be it was broadcast by Nippon Television from April 10, 1978 to March 31, 1979 or am I wrong?
 * Yep. My bad. Gabriel Yuji (talk) 01:47, 4 January 2015 (UTC)


 * I would consider renaming the Games section to Video games, if it does not include any pre-1980s games
 * I'd prefer it to. In the last review by Zanimum, however, he pointed out that pachinko games are not video games.


 * "The anime was considered a hit on Japanese television and though aimed toward girls" - curious, what age group might this be?
 * schoolgirls, per Clements. Gabriel Yuji (talk) 01:47, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

On hold
This was interesting to read. It looks like this could be a worthy GA, so I'll put this on hold for at least seven days until everything has been addressed. Thanks ☯ Jag  uar  ☯ 12:25, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Many thanks for the review, . I would like that you take a look at the article after my changes and my commentaries here. Gabriel Yuji (talk) 01:47, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

Close - promoted
Thanks for your fast response, I'm happy with the way this article is written and I think it's safe to say that this meets the criteria now. Well done ☯  Jag  uar  ☯ 13:37, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
