Search for reliable third-party source doesn't come of with much, but given the title, it's hard to separate the wheat from the chafe. Fails WP:BK and WP:NOTE. In fact, I'm having a hard time verifying that the series ran in Comic Bunch, especially since the manga allegedly started in the magazine when it ceased publication. —Farix (t | c) 01:55, 7 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Try these hits? This page appears to be a case of WP:CRYSTAL - at present it does not seem to meet WP:BK or WP:GNG. --Malkinann (talk) 02:27, 7 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete Not much for references have been added since this was first put up for AfD, I do not see any WP:Notability to be had here. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 01:11, 14 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - Apparently it's notable enough to have a movie adaptation made of it according to the Japanese Wikipedia entry: ギャングスタ (映画). But, that doesn't necessarily justify an English entry and I couldn't find a comparable entry for the manga itself in the Japanese pages. But then again, I'm just searching by copy-pasting kanji. --NINTENDUDE64 03:14, 14 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
