Unnecessary to have a list article for Pokemon Manga when the category "Manga_based_on_Pok%C3%A9mon" serves the same purpose1292simon (talk) 03:45, 16 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep - but change it from being a list to being a proper article on the Pokemon manga. Note that the presence of a category does not mean that a list on the same thing should go - but this article could be a lot more than just a list. Lukeno94 (talk) 16:41, 16 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep - Way too popular and well known to not have an article. Although it should be about the manga not just a list. --Mrmoustache14 (talk) 19:25, 16 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep and make it into an article that's about the manga rather than just a list. Lugia2453 (talk) 00:56, 17 December 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep Proper parent article for the diffrent manga. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 23:35, 18 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Gotta keep em all! - There has been lots and lots of coverage, especially in Japan, for the different Pokémon manga. As a Pokémon fan myself, I believe that they're so popular and influential that they are notable. I agree that it should be changed from a list to a proper article about the different manga instead. Note that there's plenty of Pokémon manga out there, not just one. There's Pokémon: The Electric Tale of Pikachu, Pokémon Adventures, etc. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 11:23, 19 December 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm happy to withdraw this AfD. Can I request that people improve article as per the suggestions above please? It needs some love, and has been in a poor state for over 5 years. Cheers, 1292simon (talk) 12:01, 21 December 2012 (UTC)
