Further "Appropriations" Identified?
Date: 10/22/2005
In the wake of the Yuki Suetsugu "appropriation / plagiarism" case, Japanese fans are looking more closely at their manga now and some are making callouts online relating to a number of different suspect art pieces. One of the most well known in the English speaking realms is the comparison of Oh Great!'s Tenjho Tenge (which came first) and Yuji Shiozaki's Ikkitousen. Another is Rozen Maiden: Traumend's 'Barasuishou' and a character used as promo art by the J-Rock group Ziong Head. Both feature girls with an eyepatch. Another interesting one is a photo of a hillside medieval castle and town located in France and a sketch done by Eureka 7 character designer Ken'ichi Yoshida.
