• I'd swing towards a merge of this article to Histeria!, but I'm a bit perplexed. The nom created the article from an apparent fork or merge of the individual characters, yet s/he's putting up for AFD. Not protesting, I just think it is weird. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 23:14, 13 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep, definitely. If you ask me, I'll bet TTN just hates Histeria! and wants people to forget all about it. As the person who wrote the original articles (which I still say shouldn't have been taken down), these characters deserve to have information about them made available. -- Nintendo Maximus
