I guess it helps if your an anime character.

Between anime and pop music I am not sure which has more pages dedicated to it. You can find page after page about individual episodes of an anime series just as you can find many individual pages for one song off an album.

So what quantifies notability? I would love to know how an obscure; at least to me; anime or song qualifies versus some of what does get deleted.

The bias of individuals play a major role in the historical and biographical accuracy of the articles they write, not so much in obscure songs. Also the credibility reduction in the public eyes is virtually none for mistakes in such things as obscure songs.
