He spelled Manga wrong... oh and there's that too. It would be hard to prove the facts. However his reasons are a little iffy, Bleach is read right to left, my is read left to right. My is color, Bleach isn't... Seriously WTF, come up with better reasons.

Zounds! He has no knowledge of Bleach! Except in his favorites he has an Ichigo picture, Ulqiorra, and an espada...coinkidink me think. He's lucky Kubo realizes that Incarnate will be canceled and there won't be a trial. |

Maybe It's just my disinterest in Bleach, but I don't think it's that big of a deal. To be honest, poses and facial expressions in manga run together. At least he changed his angles, his paneling, and seems to have very different storyline from Bleach. And about half the side-by-sides they're claiming aren't even legit. Like the grinning blonde with the bowl-cut versus the blonde Incarnate dude; I see only the vaguest semblance. Sure it's kind of cheap to copy someone else's art style and use their stuff as references, but it's nothing to get super namby pamby about.
That out of the way, Nick is totally approaching this the wrong way. Saying that you don't know about something when you obviously do is not going to help anything.

Imitation is the greatest form of flattery, no? Dis seems a fair and useful defense. Ja, some of the comparisons are "streeetched" but, do not take dis thing at face value. In a court of DA law, plausible reason of copyright infringement needs to be CLEAR & straight forward. The examples show poorly adapted copies of a well known manga with almost identical similarities. But, as you say, who cares? Vell, zat topic is a a murky, murky, murky one. Prospective mangaka find publication hard in the least anddd just one smart "gai" can tighten it all up. But, you do not care for legal talk I am sure. Copyright ist important for the manga and video-games you read to be publisshed everyday, ja, we agree? If ze standard is changed...what is original intellectual property(hoho, I apologize legalness ^^")? Da law, love eet or hate it, helps protect established works like KH/Bleach/Harry Potter remain iconic for that reason...and believee me, JK Rowling, she win ALL of her copyright cases! Fear not apollo (lysander?)! Simply ramblings from a silly man. Lil Nickie's biggest mistake: admitting after lying that he knew about Bleach. Now there is more than probable cause that he can be tried and convicted of plagiarism. But ee won't. Kubo'll just demand the company trash Incarnate. And Lil Nickie's career is gone, no credibility. Ova. Oi vey! The time! so much! has passed? It is already 10:14!!! And I am still responding to dis? |

*shrug* The largest majority of copyright laws are things I disagree with in an artistic nature. You can bring them up, and I can tell you that as an artist my philosophies differ from the current legal doctrine, and we'll be in the same spot as we were at 10:14.  |
