Possible Article Expansion:
Masamune Atsuo: His page contains one paragraph and zero semblance of a talk page. I feel like this could be easily expanded to include names of his works, poems and possible awards received while serving at Notre Dame Seishin.

Japanese City Pop: This would be an expansion on the cultural phenomenon of 80's japanese city pop section of the Jpop page. It has only a paragraph as is, and I could easily expand on it listing any songs that made it onto any top 100 lists, or best selling albums.

Hiroshi Nagai: He doesn't even have a page on Wikipedia! He was one of the greatest pop/surrealist artists of 80's Japan, even going so far as to do album art for Eiichi Ohtak who was ranked as one of the greatest japanese artists/pop artists of all time.

Hisashi Eguchi: This page is lacking some sources. Especially for the part about his characters being the inspiration for the characters in perfect blue. Which is true but I don't see the source listed.

Article Evaluation
The article (Cat Shit One) is a generally well written article, and contains several sources. One of these sources are blogs and/or promotional material. The main one being "Ain't it cool news" which does not get linked to the actual article about Cat Shit One, but the home page. The section that this backs up it the paragraph about the animation trailer for the release. Maybe this could be linked to the publishers official site if they also have the trailer shown there?

Finalization
MY final topics include Hiroshi Nagai, City Pop and Hisashi Eguchi. I feel like each topic definitely has room to add to it, but sources are lacking so I don't think it is even possible to add enough to just one. For City pop I will add artists who classify under modern versions of the genre. Eguchi Hisashi has exhibitions that aren't listed on his page yet.

Draft Article
The Hiroshi Nagai article was buried as a possible wiki page, but was flagged for no decent sources. I recopywrote the page, adding correct headers and in text citations. I also added a new source from a Japanese magazine. I have resubmitted it for review. The Japanese version of the page had no trouble being cleared with only 2 sources, so I feel good about this page. I also added an infobox for him and a picture. A couple Japanese sources are giving me reading trouble but I should be posting more on city pop as I read a bit further.

Peer Review
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Hiroshi_Nagai

--->Krystyn Review Response: So far everything is looking good, I went in and edited a few misspellings and changed some words from past tense to present tense. You can see it in the edit of the draft part of your actual draft. It will be interesting to see more information come about Hiroshi Nagai since I have never heard of him. I did look him up though and looked at his art which looked interesting in an oil painting style. They looked so pretty, but they also looked so fake at the same time. Hopefully your review comes through from Wikipedia though and more can be seen of what you have contributed. Just curious I didn't see a picture, which you mentioned above, so I am assuming that the picture may be under review also? I am also curious if you plan to add some of his art on this page with pictures or links to his art or not at all? I think it might be nice to be able to click or look at his art from the Wikipedia page.

I had looked into that, but all of the pictures of him I had added got taken down so I figured that his art would be removed just as quick.
