Nothing written here convinces me that this person is notable: no awards, no national recognition, etc. The references may indeed support claims made in the article, but that does not make the subject notable. KDS4444 (talk) 15:53, 28 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep - I'd rather err on the side of keeping when the references are mainly in a foreign language. This person has had one, two articles written about her, has received the Japanese equivalent of a screenwriting Emmy (see the second name at number 54 here), and has been mentioned many times by various people on Twitter in the last 24 hours. - Richard Cavell (talk) 16:10, 28 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Twitter mentions? Really??  Oh, how low thou has fallen...   KDS4444 (talk) 09:45, 29 June 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep The Japanese references already in the article are reliable sources, with a few having significant content. Here are a few more:, , , etc. She won a Drama Academy Award for best screenplay for "Papa to musume no nanokakan" in 2007. She's written the screenplays for over a dozen prime time, major network drama series. Most importantly, she was the screenwriter for the NHK Asadora Beppinsan, which was a hit with ratings over 20%. I should add that the NHK Asadora is one of the prime slots on Japanese television, and only established and well-known screenwriters are selected. Passes both WP:GNG and WP:AUTHOR.
