My Paint skills are horrible. I will not, I repeat, will not, be responsible for any trauma incurred. I just felt like drawing something.

Are?

Hoshino Katsura’s Plagiarism Case.

Rei-chan — Thu, 30 Jul 2009 07:31:59 +0000

I cannot BELIEVE that Hoshino Katsura was accused of plagiarism. Apparently, some people believe that she did. Personally, I think that she didn’t do it.

Here are some samples:

Hoshino Vs. Takeshi Obata. Whoever he is.

: Takeba’s manga

D.Gray-Man Vs. Death Note

Misa Vs. Allen

Back to the point. HONESTLY. Some of the pictures are just…look at the one above. It was said that Hoshino plagiarised Death Note, because the poses are the same. Japanese manga is not new, there are of course cases where poses are re-used. If that was the case, random mangakas could go around suing each other, all the time. Of course there have been real cases of plagiarism, but this is going overboard. What little proof they have is not enough, If they had something like the below:

Plagiarised from Clamp:

…sure, go right ahead and sue her, but that is simply not enough I tell ya. And in the middle of a Kanda chapter too. Irusenai!

Melt…

White Album’s opening theme Shin Ai, performed by Mizki Nana, really made me MELT. And once again wonder at how high her voice can go. It’s….moving if you consider it, in a way, but it’s just a really Special Song.

Dream Star
歌: The Generous

気づけば空には　幼い頃見た
一番に光る　あの星が光って魅せた
夢は夢だって　あきらめてたかな
強く輝いた　星に今、元気もらった

誰かに　頼ってばかりだった
あの頃にサヨナラ

世界を　変えてみせる！　前を見れば
ピンチはチャンスに変わる
鼓動が　刻みだした　未来へと
迷いを　翼に変えたら
誰も届かない　あの星になる！
Shining Like A Star

怖くないなんて　嘘になるけれど
立ち向かうことを　やめたりはしないよきっと
転がり続ける　理想と現実
ぶつかり合うほど　作られる「私」の存在

冷たい風も　心地いいね
背中を押されてく

戸惑い　吹き飛ばして　走りだすよ
夢を掴んで　速く
見飽きた　過去を捨てて　決めたから
私は　生まれ変われるよ
ダメな自分さえ　明日へのカギ

誰かに　頼ってばかりだった
あの頃じゃないから
