Dengeki Still At It

The detectives at 2ch never cease to amaze us.

I don't really hate it though, since I actually want to see Haruka wearing Rio's costume... lol

That's a little bit stupid; Just because the pose and the clothes are the same doesn't mean is plagiarism; tell me that when you see exactly the same image only with a change of hair and color design...I just see the pose and the clothes are the same....big deal. It's not like the clothes were made by a designer and the pose is utterly property of someone with intelectual rights....

Sometimes NEET's have way too much free time...

I drew someone of standing once... then someone accusing me of plagarism...

LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNND !!!

Well, no, thats not the same picture.
I mean, check the left Picture.
At first they seem to look the same, but.
The Left Hand on the Left Picture doesnt match with the right Pictures Hand.
And the Head doesnt look the same, its just different at the left Pic.
Btw, there isnt much another way to draw a person sitting on a table.
So?

My question: so fucking what?

''despite the usual Japanese theatre of bowing and scraping little has changed''

Oh yes, let's a sue each other to hell instead of a demaning a formal apology.

Too bad that Shaa does better picture overall.

isn't that Rio chick in that crappy DOAX game for PSP?

well, i don't care about that, but what i want to know is where can i find that haruka picture in HQ??

So same poses is now considered as plagiarism? Seriously, is 2ch running out of actual plagiarists to bust?

That reminds me, there should be more doujinshi from that series . . ..

Can't Dengeki just fire this artist and be done with it?

I'm going to create a manga and the main character will be female, have 2 boobs, 2 legs and arms and 1 head. The promotional picture will show her sitting down in a clasroom as head of the student council in her school. She appears tough and is a tsundere.

As you can see with what I typed, even an innocent idea turns into plagiarism when this logic is applied. The tools for which manga itself is made is "knock-offs" to whoever is accusing the artists.

The killing news will probably be: Mangaka plagiarizes school manga!! Must be stopped at all cost before he makes any money from making manga!!!

How can people draw, if what they draw turns to "copying" even when it's unintentional? I cannot see how this can be stopped if it were true.

Hm, obvious simmonsing is obvious ( second pic ) however the picture in question doesn't seem as plagiarism to me...And so the third as well...

There are hundreds of popular poses that have been re-used during the history of illustrating especially in the anime/manga industry since certain poses are expressing a certain emotion or state...

Reference usage and inspiration are very close to plagiarism, the difference is how the original is used...
I don't say the artist isn't a copycat but there is the chance he/she just thought : Oh, I wanna do something similar too! or Wow, that's cute, I wanna try that with my characters!

So is that plagiarism, reference or inspiration?

In what freaking way is this plagiarism? The poses are similar, but that's about it, there's more than enough differences and originality to make up for any similarities. I can't even begin to count how many times I've seen the "girl crouching with sword" pose in pic 3... and "sitting in slutty clothes", that one is VERY original...

Then again the rtards at 2chan screamed plagiarism because they found a cloud in K-ON that looked similar to a cloud on a photo, so I guess crap like this isn't that surprising.

Guess you could hope that it's more of a "look at me I'm such a geek I remember every pose and every frame from every obscure anime/manga!" rather than "This guy needs to burn in hell because he copies!!!!!!".

I don't like artists or companies Simmonsing, but... I love the looks of _both_ the characters in the topmost image in this article!

Looks more like a coincidence rather then blatant plagiarism to me...
