Insignificant presence for this record that I can determine. Appears to fail GNG. Andre🚐 22:57, 20 December 2023 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Akino (singer) as is the usual solution for a non-notable album by a notable artist. As for this album specifically, it made the official Oricon chart in Japan and that's nothing to sneeze at, but a shortage of informative articles from reliable music media (at least in English) gives us little material with which to build an encyclopedic article. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (TALK&#124;CONTRIBS) 16:46, 21 December 2023 (UTC)

 * Keep This album hit on the Oricon chart. There's some coverage about it on the Japanese Wikipedia articles  . While my brief search did not bring up additional articles (searching for articles in Japanese from the early 2000s can be difficult), I believe that making being an album from a notable artist that made the charts in what was then the world's second largest economy (+ coverage we have) means that this is notable and simply more time needs to be invested in finding additional sources in order to build out the article. I don't think anyone would suggest that an album from a major U.S. artist that makes the U.S. charts isn't notable. DCsansei (talk) 00:16, 22 December 2023 (UTC)
 * People redirect charting albums all the time, and indeed WP:NALBUM notes that a standalone article is only appropriate when there is enough material to warrant a reasonably detailed article. Mach61 (talk) 01:11, 22 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Redirect to artist article - Impressive charting but reviews from secondary sources to build an article exceeding stub size do not seem to exist.--NØ 17:08, 22 December 2023 (UTC)
