    Damn I loved that manga too

    Edit:

    Yeah, looks like the copying was with Yuki’s early 2000’s manga, Flower of Eden. Chihayafuru is completely unrelated to the plagiarism accusations. The author even fessed up and apologized.

    That's false lmao.

    Yuu Kamiya only used poses, but designs and everything else are totally original from him.

    And, how the fuck can be a fucking pose subject to copyright...?

    Japan has no fair use. Plagiarism is a social outcasting taboo. I don't agree, but you’ll have to take it to the Diet, not I.

    I'm not saying that it doesn't exists or that isn't not a problem in Japan either.

    I agree with you, but we should still have our right to fight against it, at least.

    Anyways, actually there's at least a recognized form of fair use: doujinshis, but these are a totally distinct matter, I have to say.

    I hope that gets better there.
