Weak Keep - I'm not sure with this one, I see major roles bolded on ANN which leads me to believe the article is incomplete. I also found a source on ja:wiki which is tied to this book: [1]. The source appears under her biographical info, with research this could yield more results. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 13:20, 24 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Those "bolded" roles are from really, really non-notable titles. Even JAwiki is a stub for this one. That's why I nommed the article for deletion. Sk8erPrince (talk) 12:33, 25 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete stub-level article even in JA wikipedia, which has very little biographical information and is a credits dump. The book reference might confirm a little bit of her profile, but I don't see much referencing there either, only to her agency 81 produce. None of her roles are in notable productions. No news to discuss her in ANN. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 19:46, 25 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - The condition of the Japanese page should not seal this article's fate. Knowledgekid presented a scenario where further research can offer more reliable coverage. Simply because the nom does not have access to such sources is no excuse for an outright delete at this point.TheGracefulSlick (talk) 07:24, 26 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The Japanese page shows its potential for development. Unless the actress is new, an empty credits only listing means there isn't much hope for finding more research about the actor. The JA Wikipedia article body says that she went to some high school and voice training school and signed with 81 produce. The two references provided, one is from a voice actor directory, and the other in Animage 1994 is potentially an interesting up and coming article about her, but doesn't say stuff that shows she meets WP:ENT.
