 * Note: The corresponding article in Japanese (which I have just linked in the article) has a list of awards which Google Translate apparently translates quite comprehensibly; perhaps one of these is an indicator of notability (it did not win any international film festival awards, though it competed in several). הסרפד  (call me “Hasirpad”) (formerly R——bo) 23:44, 6 January 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep. The film was one of the most highly regarded Japanese films of 2003, as evidenced by being selected in the long-standing Kinema Junpo Best Ten and in the Best Ten of the Blue Ribbon Awards. The director was given an award by the Japanese Minister of Education and the lead actor won several best actor awards. These are just some of the recognitions it received. I have added an awards section to the article to that effect. It also got a lot of press in Japan, as well as reviews in foreign media like Variety. Michitaro (talk) 02:29, 7 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep - It won awards, so obviously it is notable. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 11:35, 7 January 2013 (UTC)
