 * Comment. Not sure if it merits a stand-alone article but certainly not a hoax. Look at the group's article Ikimono-gakari and you see the title of the album and four sources, including one that asserts it a million seller, though all of them are in Japanese. I have expanded the article a little bit accordingly. --Kusunose 04:29, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep It is not a hoax, only a badly formatted new article. It is the lastest album by notable Japanese band Ikimono-gakari. I have added an infobox, reformatted/copyedit the article and added a couple more references. Hopefully it should meet notability as per WP:NALBUMS. BTW I have also taqgged the article with the deletion tag as it wasn't tagged when the AfD was created on 4 April 2011.--Michaela den (talk) 11:54, 21 April 2011 (UTC)
