or '''redirect''' to Kaiketsu Zorori.  Normally, a person who creates a best selling book series would be expected to be notable (The Kaiketsu Zorori series has sold 23 million copies according to List of best-selling books, which includes a source for that number).  Furthermore, as the series was apparently adapted into a feature-length film and two TV series totaling around 150 episodes, that further suggests that it is notable.  It seems he ''should'' pass  criterion 3, as what is apparently a major franchise in Japan would be expected to have reviews and other coverage.  However, given that no one seems to have found such coverage so far and the article really says nothing about him right now, redirecting to Kaiketsu Zorori might be appropriate.  I don't understand why anyone would suggest this should be deleted instead of redirected, given that there is such an obvious redirect target
