Ryo-Ohki[edit]

Article reads in full: Ryo-Ohki is a character in the Japanese anime series Tenchi Muyo, a cute and furry intelligent animal who can often be found in the company of Princess Sasami. Ryo-Ohki is commonly referred to as a cabbit, and is widely considered to be the definitive example of such. Preteen fancruft. Kawaii! (If you don't know what "Tenchi Muyo" [Muyō, actually] is about and have a strong stomach, try the Flash intro to the official website.) -- Hoary 10:24, 2005 Jan 17 (UTC) ..... PS: The write-up for this character given within the article on Tenchi Muyo isn't so saccharine and indeed is moderately interesting; it's both longer and considerably more informative than is this new article up for VfD. -- Hoary 11:03, 2005 Jan 17 (UTC)

Keep. Pains me to say it (not a fan of Tenchi Muyo), but with a bit of work this would compare favorably with other articles on fictional characters. Unless this one in particular is minor, I don't see why it should go. Khanartist 10:56, 2005 Jan 17 (UTC)

  • Keep hasn't had a chance to prove it's worth yet. Kappa 11:27, 17 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep "Ryo-Ohki" gets 50,000 Google hits. It might not be your cup of tea, but obviously somebody cares about it. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 12:40, Jan 17, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep but improve. Clearly notable. — Asbestos | Talk 13:10, 17 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. Samaritan 13:45, 17 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep for reasons stated above. 23skidoo 19:54, 17 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment: I don't know that I'd have called it an article-worthy character, but since consensus seems to be to keep it, I'll work on it at some point in the next week. I suppose that's another keep vote. Shimeru 23:09, Jan 17, 2005 (UTC)
    • Okay, initial expansion's done. Shimeru 10:32, Jan 19, 2005 (UTC)
  • Weak Delete, borderline notable. As it stands I don't think it deserves an article. Megan1967 00:39, 18 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, no less "notable" than main characters on Charmed. Ryo-Ohki is also used by the Pioneer corporation as a mascot for its line of anime releases. Inky 01:49, 18 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Kiddie-cruft at present, but a one-two punch of 50,000 Google hits and its use as an advertising mascot for a major electronics firm makes me want to say keep and clean up. - Lucky 6.9 23:51, 18 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, there is cruft and there is cruft. This is crufticity of the sublime kind. Wyss 05:24, 19 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Edelkruft, perhaps? -- Hoary 10:38, 2005 Jan 19 (UTC)
  • Keep, article's been expanded nicely. Bryan 22:12, 22 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep Relatively major character of a television & movie series popular in many countries (esp. Japan). Xaliqen 23:51, 22 Jan 2005 (UTC)
