Just though I would share this because this is amusing/rage.  

Basically artist tracing Bleach manga in his new comic.  The resemblance is so obvious it's almost like a recolour.  Orohime with blond hair anyone?

Gene Simmons isn't a famous comic artist.

My bad xD

lmao, that's pretty funny, the comparisons are so obvious too.

I saw this a little while ago on a different community. o_O It's a bait sad really... Cant people use their own creativity?

oh good, we've needed a new internet meme that isn't terrible. Gene Simmons son copying japanese manga seems random enough to work. We just need an overrated 80s or video game song and A NEW MEME IS BORN

You know, that song wasn't as safe as they said it was.

From the news on MH, looks like the Japanese side (Kubo Tite, and the publisher there) has taken some action regarding this issue...

And the aforementioned Comic Books was stopped from being distributed and printed...

That's great news. :3 Justice has been served. Let the legit artists prevail!

That was action by the publisher itself, not anything from Viz, Kubo, or Shueisha.  There's a potential legal problem, so the obvious action is to halt any potentially illegal activities until it can be investigated thoroughly.

Lol looks like the copycat didn't only copy Bleach but got "inspiration" from artist on deviantart as well.
*facepalm*

Ah well, glad to hear publishers are doing something about it

Yeah one of the Bleach copies was also from a DA fanartist. o_O Should I be afraid?
