 * Chief editor for one of the biggest publishers in the world; actively pursuing the publication of the lines he supervises in English through Del Rey Manga. Needs expansion, but most definitely notable. Doceirias (talk) 05:37, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

 * Keep - it appears notability can be asserted. However, given how few edits the nominator has, as well as the extremely minimal deletion rationale, this nomination itself is highly questionable. Sephiroth BCR  ( Converse ) 05:40, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

 * Keep and expand. Looks like he's a notable person. --Malevious Userpage •Talk Page• Contributions 23:53, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep as per everyone but the nominator. Edward321 (talk) 15:49, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep, allow time for expansion and full notability establishment.  The short bit in the article now indicates notability can be established, however no one seems to be bothering with the article since its creation. I've put it in the biography project as well and hopefully someone will finish what the creator started. Collectonian (talk) 14:05, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
