• ... that Toko Furuuchi's songwriting involves making everyone a protagonist? Source: 古内「人の話とか映画を見てインスパイアされて書くということもなくて、最初は自分が主人公。曲になっちゃえば皆さんが主人公なんですけど。そんな書き方です」/Furuuchi: "I don't write based on other people's stories or inspiration from movies; I start with myself as the protagonist. Once the song is finished, though, the listeners become the protagonists. That’s how I write."
  • ALT1: ... that Toko Furuuchi once said she would quit songwriting if it "starts to feel like a chore and stops being fun" only to receive more than a hundred songwriting credits? Source: たとえば、もっか出演中のシンガー・ソングライター古内東子はデビューが決まった当時、「（曲作りが）仕事っぽくなって面白くなくなったらやめる」と心に誓ったそうだ。これがずっと心の中にあるという。/For instance, singer-songwriter Toko Furuuchi—who is currently active in the industry—vowed to herself when her debut was confirmed: "If songwriting starts to feel like a chore and stops being fun, I’ll quit." She says this resolve has remained with her ever since. + both uta-net refs credit 164 compositions and 179 lyrics to Furuuchi
  • ALT1b: ... that before receiving more than a hundred songwriting credits, Toko Furuuchi once said she would quit if it "starts to feel like a chore and stops being fun"? Source: Same as ALT1

• Article was expanded from 122 words on 19 June to 708 words on 25 June and hence is eligible. Earwig shows no issues and I cannot see any unreliable sources being used/any paragraphs uncited. All three hooks are interested and verified in their sources. The three hooks are also written and sourced in the article, though @Miraclepine: if you could write and source in the article the year she said the statement about quitting songwriting if becomes a choir it would be really helpful as it would strengthen the "before receiving more than than a hundred songwriting credits" :) QPQs have been done and hence this is eligible. Well done! :) DaniloDaysOfOurLives (talk) 10:54, 26 June 2026 (UTC)
