• Gonna be claiming this for review but due to IRL busyness it may take a bit to complete it. In the meantime, I think the first hook is the best option here, with ALT3 being a close second. Otherwise I can confirm that it was promoted to GA on time from the date of the nomination. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 11:33, 6 December 2022 (UTC)

Continuing review: The first hook and ALT3 are the best options here and would probably intrigue even non-anime fans the most. I have verified the first hook in the source: ALT3 is cited to a French source so AGF, although Google Translate seems to confirm it. QPQ has also been done.

• @Onegreatjoke: Apologies for the delay in approving this. This is almost good to go, the only remaining issue is that ALT0's supporting sentence is lacking a footnote (which instead is found in the following sentence); that will need to be addressed for DYK purposes.

@Narutolovehinata5: Is it good now? Onegreatjoke (talk) 18:59, 2 January 2023 (UTC)

Yes, this is good to go now. I have a slight preference for the original hook but I will leave the final decision to the promoter (I'm leaving ALT0 and ALT3 for consideration, I've struck ALT2 as it assumes familiarity with TPN, which not all readers may have). I have to note that Phil81194 revered your adding of the footnote; I've reverted that edit, and I'd like to point out to Phil that per WP:DYKCRIT, footnotes need to be duplicated for any sentence that mentions or discusses a DYK hook fact even if they're not required otherwise.
