Sometimes, it’s possible for artists, musicians or writers to subconsciously and unintentionally plagiarize other people’s work.

I once read somewhere that there are something like only 16 basic plots for a novel or movie, for example. The characters and settings may be somewhat different, but the essential stories remain the same.

I don’t know if that’s the case here. However, the pictures from Nick’s work and the original anime do look extremely similar. If Nick did intentionally plagiarize, then he should come clean on it, apologize, and pay royalties to Tite Kubo and the company that produces “Bleach.”

i like Incarnate comic and i like all the mangas that the artist ripped off from i think the Incarnate should continue as a free doujinshi like a web comic

Nick is a great artist. Creating a comic all by himself is an emense amount of pressure and work for a 19 year old boy. I guess he just shouldn’t have published it. I’d still f*ck him. ^^;

I doubt that Nick will every respond, let alone care. But I still hope he pays the original artists their dues. Cuz it’s time to flip open that wallet Nickky and watch it slim down.

[...] called Willy the Wizard, which tells the tale of wizard colleges, tournaments, etc. In the anime world, the popular Incarnate had its production stopped when charges of plagiarism arose against its [...]

LOL! I love how celebrity children think they can do whatever they want. I hope this ruins any career he thought he had in manga. After all, anyone dumb enough to try to trace another comic to try and make a profit(or at all, don’t get me wrong.) doesn’t deserve to even read comics.

Well, Kubo doesn’t seem to mind and as such, I don’t mind. I think it makes him a shitty artist, but none of us were harmed by it and as such, since the person/people who WERE wronged don’t care, then it should simply put an end to the matter and Nick’s comic. No need for legal action and blah blah blah, just discontinue his comic.

Seriously, I know that Manga is hard to do when you’re at a block (knows from personal experiance) but just changing it slightly does not make it your own. Bleach does not deserve that.

Well, Kiss did use Japanese Kabuki theatrics to create their image. Like father, like son, I guess.
