: Delete. Could quite easily be redirected to Nurikabe though. -Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 18:32, 3 January 2011 (UTC)

::The similarity to Nurikabe is only in the logical process involved in solving and not something that would make a redirect to that specific puzzle make sense. DreamGuy (talk) 18:46, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

:Keep Nomination is part of a (certainly unconscious) cultural bias against significant Japanese topics. Searching for an English rendition of the word won't find any the Japanese sources. Per Wikipedia policies on cultural bias and notability we are supposed to give a global view to topics, not just what some English speaker with little familiarity with the topic can pull up with a basic Google search.

Delete. Unsourced and non-notable. Re the comment above about this being a "significant Japanese topic", the fact that no Japanese Wikipedia article exists on the subject that would seem to suggest that it is not at all significant. --DAJF (talk) 08:45, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
