It would fit squarely in homage territory, only I don't really think City Hunter is mainstream enough for that. But I'm not familiar enough with US anime culture to say for sure.
>>133067894
If it wasn't a flat out trace and instead a picture, we'd have a homage. Instead it's just a rip off.
>>133067719
Holy shit, Gundam is literally a rip-off of Aldnoah Zero.
>>133067719
i'd say this is a homage and falls under fair use, as long as he referenced that it was from city hunter in the cd or something.
>>133067894
An homage has nothing to do with how popular something is.

They fucking love anime and manga, of course it's an homage.
>>133068883

It's the first thing you hear and play throughout the whole song
>>133068925
>as long as he references the material
Where does it say he did?
>>133068745
There are enough differences from the original for it to not be plagiarism. This shit happened to the NGNL artist and literally nothing happened and those were pretty much 95% traces.
>>133068973
i don't know if he did or didn't because i don't give a shit
it falls under fair use so actually he doesn't even have to credit i don't think.
>>133068846
Fair use does not protect commercial products sold for profit.
And even despite that, tracing is still considered a very serious form of plagiarism. A trace is not an homage or an imitation, it is literally taking someone else's work and presenting it as your own. In this case, someone else's work is being used to sell a product for profit.
>>133068981
>literally nothing happened
There was a big stink about it and didn't something happen to sales? Otaku autism and all that
Or am I remembering something else

This. It's plagiarism.
>>133069026
There was a stink yes, and I bet that the controversy ruined sales for NGNL and the artist and even his rep. But that is it. His traced artwork was deemed to be different enough (literally only had a different face drawn) that it didn't breach anything.
>>133067719

A court would have deemed it that. It didn't go to court because the owners of the traced material chose not to pursue it. Plagiarism is a civil case, not a criminal one. He got away with it because the people he stole from chose not to litigate.
>>133069166
It's more the colouring than anything else.
They should've just done a posed photoshoot like others said in this thread. He can stop beating women long enough to take a couple pictures for his own damn album.

>>133069212
>bleachness
Man, it's been a while. Fuck
>>133069261
Then that's even worse. Because nothing happened idiots like chris brown think that it wasn't plagiarism and will continue to steal art.
Did he outsource this to an intern? A shitty tracing of a well-known manga series (those shadows look like they might've just filtered the original page and then traced the rest themselves).
Why can't he just do a photoshoot with the exact same pose? Fuck, quit being so stupid.
>>133067719

I think I'm gonna try, do my own version and send it to that Chris Brown guy. Maybe I'll get paid.
>>133069511

>>133069571
He only got 5 years probation for it. If I remember correctly, he didn't go to jail until he got kicked out of an anger rehabilitation clinic he was sent to for beating up some dude in the street.
>>133069601
What was that song that sampled K-On?
>>133069637
Can't even remember was it going straight into digital distribution, but there was some publisher drama afterwards.
Kubo's twitter posts were great.

>>133069511
>>133069571
>>133069212
>>133069052
Kubo's reaction made the whole thing priceless. He wasn't even mad, just surprised Gene Simmons' son was in the same profession as he was. I think that's the moment that cemented how much I love Kubo.

Shit like this is why we need the TPP

Interesting fact: When he performs this live he actually gets the real Hirasawa Yui to provide backup vocals
>>133072754
Absolutely digusting. TPP means the end of doujins, the end of fansubs, it's going to destroy fucking everything. I have no problem allowing this shit if the alternative is to destroy everything I love.

What is there to understand? They're just ooga boogaing about raping and killing and "white privilege" and their hatred for cops. If anything you should be wondering why whites like black hip hop so much?
>>133072834
Not hum but i'm actually wondering why anyone likes Hip Hop.

Heh

Do people really feel the need to false flag /pol/ this hard?
>>133072929
I'm sure a lot of people can say the same about anime.

not even clicking the link

>Shit like this is why we need the TPP
>we need the TPP because famous people that plagiarize need to be sent fines
Cannot fathom your idiocy, vacate from existence at once
>>133072982
I'm sure a lot of people can say the same about anything. Doesn't change the fact that Hip Hop is a shit genre.

>The artist who animated "It Girl," a man who goes by the mysterious pseudonym Mr., is a legend in the lolicon community who acknowledges his own sexual preference.
Never heard of him
>>133068981
Nothing happened to the NGNL artist because he didn't plagiarize shit.
>Here, let me take a few generic poses and body parts and find pixiv works that look kind of similar and try to force a comparison through multiple photoshop overlays that show they kind of match a bit
It's entirely different from here where you don't even need someone to try to overlay the two pictures to show them they were traced (something the NGNL artist didn't do), because it's so fucking obviously traced and stolen. Anyone with a pair of eyes can see it.
In fact, last I've heard the exact opposite happened to the NGNL case, the crazy nutjob posting these "comparisons" on Twitter had his account shut down or was reprimanded for slander. If any of his accusations had any basis whatsoever NGNL would've ceased publication and the author's career would've been over, as has happened many times in the past with artists in Japan that were actually caught doing this.
