[edit] Otaku no yen

Another webcomic, found [1] by a group called Guardian Sun Studios. You can also take a look at their swanky Unencylopedia page at Uncyclopedia:Otaku no Yen. Googling "Otaku no yen" -emulator brings up 130 links (otaku no yen seems to be a gameboy emulator also). 130 links is not a lot, and many of these links are to japanese language pages. I can't read japanese, but looking at the links on these sites, they didn't seem to refer to this webcomic as I couldn't find a relevent link. Alexa returns figures of 1.6 million. Contrary to The History section of the article, I doubt somewhat that this has reached levels of "international fame" - Hahnchen 00:38, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

• As a professed deletionist, I'm surprised to find myself saying this, but weak keep. The Japanese links I can find are, in fact, almost all about the webcomic in question. And as for international fame, here is an interview with the webcomic's creators on Excite News; it's not exactly fame, but it is verification that this webcomic has been noticed in Japan. — Haeleth Talk 17:50, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
