Holy Balls this guy has some in the wrong way

Gene Simmons son posted a manga inspired by Bleach.

And by inspired, I mean tracing large chunks of Bleach.

It's an awesome art style, buddy, but did you really think someone might not notice you copying LARGE CHUNKS OF A SUPER HUGE POPULAR MANGA IN A NICHE MARKET?

I love Kubo Tite's response to the whole fiasco XD

The like "I'm wiorried about why he's making manga?"

[fifth11.livejournal.com]

Yes. But more that this is what worries him more than the plagiarism.

I'm literally at a loss for words.

Ah, reminds me of this site: http://youthoughtwewouldntnotice.com/blog3/

And there's a lot of people in the BJD world hat have tried to recast dolls and pass them off as their own... and it usually doesn't fly. If you're trying to sell a copy of something to people who spend their days staring at photos of the thing you're trying to copy... someone's going to notice.

I'm not even a Bleach fan, but that both had me annoyed and amused beyond words. Seriously, how many people read Bleach? People would notice, they have noticed and now things are going to go downhill for Mr. Big-Rock-Star's-Son.

I don't even read Bleach and I think I'd have noticed something familiar there.

Apparently there's also copying of some Hellsing and other manga. On top of ripping the entire idea off from a tabletop.

I wouldn't be worried if I was Kubo. Simmons' manga? Please.
