I contributed enough to the article to be considered a co-author so I'm not fit to review this. An alternate hook I suggest would be:
- ALT2: ... that The Tale of Genji, The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter, and The Tales of Ise are all examples of kishu ryūritan stories? (Commons 2009, p. 40; Stockdale 2015, p. 20.)
Perhaps giving examples of well-known stories might get people interested in reading more about the archetype. RoseCherry64 (talk) 18:48, 21 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: Interesting:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: Everything meets the necessary requirements. I have no preference on which hook to use as they all seem good, but I'd probably lean towards either the first or ALT2. Brojam (talk) 22:52, 25 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
