Kapo-n! Hacchake Onsen Love-come

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Unnotable short unlicensed manga series. Fails WP:BK and WP:N. No significant coverage in any reliable, third-party sources, no awards, no high sales, etc. -- Collectonian  (talk · contribs) 22:05, 2 February 2009 (UTC)

 * Comment. Searching for sources is complicated by the fact that the article gets the title wrong. The official title really seems to be either Kapo~n (>_<)! or Kapo-n (>_<)! (かぽーん（＞＿＜）！) (see publisher's site), with Onsen Love Comedy being either the subtitle or tag line. Any way you spell it, though, I'm not finding much. That the original English scanlation group dropped it for lack of interest says a lot, though. —Quasirandom (talk) 23:08, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
 * All I'm finding in Japanese is sellers, some of whom have the drama CD -- the existence of which is the first indication of notability I've found. In English, there's scanlations generating even less buzz than ye average Sho-Comi series (and there's a lot of really average Sho-Comi series). Author is, as well, not notable, so there's no merge target. All that adds up to not meeting WP:BK = delete.
 * Arguments that the series is notable for having (one of) the first title with an emoticon in it will be met with a :-P —Quasirandom (talk) 00:28, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete A general search for reliable sources isn't turning up anything substantial. All we can really do is write plot and character summaries, but that would be in violation of WP:NOT. --Farix (Talk) 23:50, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
