Ah, one of the most famous Manga and Anime artists in the world today. And apparently, champion of long hair. Woot woot. -HunterKiller360 —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 4.245.75.239 (talk • contribs).

[edit] "One of the wealthiest women in Japan."
"Takahashi is one of the wealthiest women in Japan." Is this verifiable? I'd like to see a source for that. (ButteredToast 18:22, 19 March 2006 (UTC))
- In the tax payers ranking of 2005, she is 1st women writer, but UTADA Hikaru earns more. For Details see [[1]] --RedDragon 14:48, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Will she continue the inuyasha anime?
Will she continue the inuyasha anime?
- That's the network's decision, not hers.--Filby 08:29, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Later career
I'm impressed how much this article has grown recently! I hope someone can expand on her later career, including Ranma 1/2 and Inu Yasha. -- Seitz 05:40, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Another Section
Hello, I've been the one working on this page recently, due to its rather underwritten state. I'm wondering, does anyone feel that a section detailing her impact on anime/manga popularity and fandom in the Western world would be necessary? I touched on it in the first section and in Criticism, but if anyone believes that it needs to be expanded upon I'll get to work on it. Dranxis 22:17, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
- Absolutely, I think this would be a good addition. -- Seitz 04:48, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Needs Neutral Point of View
Lots of talk about popularity, and the section on Criticism doesn't have any sources at all. Needs to be rewritten or removed entirely. Gohiking 15:18, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
I totally agree. Where is the neutral viewpoint? "Maison Ikkoku is often considered to be one of the all-time best romance manga" by who? You? The Japanese? Westerners? No citations and the Criticism section is completely uncited.211.125.219.40 03:59, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
- needs to be sourced, however her popularity is evident since she is one of the richest women in japan. --AlexOvShaolin 01:40, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
- The criticism has its points, many fans have point out that some her longest and best known series have poor endings or do not end conclusively (ranma 1/2, ureisei Yatsura, Mermaid Saga). It only needs a source.Angel,Isaac 22:14, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Her husband?
I could've sworn her husband was Kazuki Takahashi, from Yu-Gi-Oh! fame. I read it somewhere, but it's not in the article. Did I read it wrong? CureHeart 21:54, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
Takahashi isn't married they just share the same last name. Plus, she's been famous much, much longer than him. Dylan Acres 07:28, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Criticisms
I am a longtime fan of Takahashi's and I must admit that I am unfamiliar with a lot of the criticisms that are listed here. Seeing as most of them are unsourced and don't add anything to the discussion of who Takahashi is as a person or mangaka I think they should be removed. What do you guys think?
