Hi, I want to tell you two things about YOI. Since English is not my native language(I'm Japanese) please forgive my poor English.
1. Rip-off: YOI ripped off several materials. i.g. footage of figure skating programs and pole dance, and a photo of a interior decoration, etc.
I heard that YOI fans are mad at Hallmark Channel because they believe it's "Love on Ice" ripped off YOI. Well, it's kind of funny, because YOI has aroused anger and dissapointment in anime fan and figure skating fan in Japan due to it's "ripp-off". Hallmark channel provided clear answers to denied "ripp-off". Whereas YOI creators has been entirely silent on the allegation and changed one of the "ripp-off" material on DVD. It's Viktor's room of episode 1 so you can check it yourself.
2. YoI criator's controversial remarks:verbal sexual harassment and anti-gay
One of YoI's creator Mitsurou Kubo, known as Kubo-sensei for YoI fans, has tweeted some controversial issues, e.g.verbal sexual harassment and ripp-off, anti-gay.
At least two male skaters were subjected to her verbal sexual harassment. I can show her very anti-gay tweet. She is a slasher but not LBGT friendly.

Looks like someone has pissed in your cereal.

>verbal sexual harassment and ripp-off, anti-gay. Based.
Daniel Gonzalez
haha the dvd looks so shit compared to the old one, but hey, they couldn't use it anymore so not much they could do there I guess
Logan Russell
>sold over 50k. >As if your fellow nips cared.

What was mappa thinking?
Blake Hughes
I'm more confused why a jap would come to Sup Forums
Christopher Clark
That ED was drawn by the creator of the series herself, kek.
Nicholas Stewart
Easy money. We haven't discovered the limit of fujobucks power
Hunter Morgan
Back to 2chan with you
William Phillips
Kek Ok
Nathan Reed
>we are lejun Probably. Dayum, she should do anime.
Charles Smith
>Dayum, she should do anime.
As in become an animator? All she does is trace.
Andrew Campbell
>he thinks people care Kek
Parker Davis
Maybe she can trace her own image, but yeah. This probably wont do it for her primary income since I dont think they want tracing, maybe for background art.
John Garcia
YOI is for literal faggot fujoshits, they don't care.
Elijah Cook
>ripped off footage of figure skating programs Rotoscoping is a common animation technique, anyone who knows even a shred about animation is aware of this. >interior design Only autists care about this. It's a background.

Austin Brown
Well, I mean, at least this shows fujoshi give a shit about their anime? And gay rights, I guess?
Props to you. You might want to post this on Reddit instead, though.
Jonathan Turner
Wow she sounds like an asshole, especially that one about stealing someone's clothes.
Ayden Hill

Andrew Johnson
>Being this triggered about stuff that happens all the time in anime
Evan Morgan
Go back to Japan, newfag.
Nathaniel Brown
She traced still photos of pole dancers.
Zachary King
What sort of person goes through years of tweets just to find dirt on someone? Why would you even bother?
Kayden Wood
this will be the new copypasta of 2017
Daniel Edwards
Too much jav for her.
Adam Barnes
You're not going to convince western fujoshi just like you're not going to convince japanese fujoshi. It's a hopeless endeavor.
Julian Russell
Where do you think you are?
Brayden Cook
The ones who can read English do. 2chan is pretty quiet, and there's a whole world of shitposting about anime over here.
Dominic Gonzalez
Not to mention there are jap websites dedicated to translate threads made here.
Jason Torres
>watching gaynime
Dominic Foster
reusing arrangements from other creation and photo is sensitive and creators tend to avoid that but that is what being accepted by art communities. Since when do fujoshi care about lgbt...
Dylan Reed
No one cares. The show was great.
>has tweeted some controversial issues, e.g.verbal sexual harassment and ripp-off, anti-gay. Respect.
Dylan Flores
>Not to mention there are jap websites dedicated to translate threads made here. For what purpose I can't imagine Sup Forums being a haven of wisdom
Jackson Rivera
Thank you Japanese user. Arigato onigirimasu~
Brody Jones
Fucking fujos, keep your fetish shit away from 3d people. This is humiliating.
Lincoln Cook
YoI is shit anyway. The only ones liking it are underages and landwhales with undersges's brains. Finally Sup Forums got a Twilight shitposting and is going to be endless.
Liam Jackson
>Gays on ice Not even once
Jaxson Ramirez
>can barely type a coherent sentence >calling people underage
Gabriel Adams
Same way we get curious on what's japan's reaction to certain things. I wish I could link you some but the archives are now unreliable as fuck.
Jose Hall
Why are Japanese people so pathetic that they think this shit is relevant?
Elijah Torres
Wasn't the dancer elated for the recognition? C'mon japanese user, noone cares but you. Did your favorite show flop?
Parker Gutierrez
Why is a "professional" so retarded to tweet stuff like that on her public profile and keep that profile once she gets to work on an anime original?
Nicholas Powell
Man, she sounds like a massive bitch What's up with the tweet where she admits she stole something? I can kinda understand making lewd comments, even if doing that about 3DPD is disgusting, but why would you tell people you are a thief?
Jack Cooper
Reference =/= trace. Same with the JJ image. I don't even want to defend this shit show, but there's this constant misunderstanding of what artists and animators do and where they get inspiration from that's baffling.
>Creators tend to avoid that Ask any industry professional how big their stock of reference images is. The answer may surprise you. How closely they adhere to those images varies, but they still receive heavy use. >Since when do fujos care about LGBT? They generally don't, but they like to pretend to.
Funny gaijins with funny opinions. For a while there was also a comic explaining our memes like 'pomf.'
Japanese tier autism + lack of understanding of art. I recall hearing about an artist getting driven off of twitter several years back because they traced/heavily referenced a ferris wheel as part of the background despite it only taking up ~10% of the total picture.
Hunter Taylor
>still replying pls 2ch. old shit isn't relevant, many of the photos were stock, also rotoscoping is a thing and the pole dancer was happy about being referenced, lots of lgbt otaku were fine with the anime
Carson Thompson
My god, how new are you?
Brayden Sanchez
>fujoshits are trying to defend all this bullshit This is happening only because your shitty anime is popular, if it was any other show it would be noticed and be a scam or plagiarism for everyone. Fuck off, hypocrital fujoshits.
Isaiah Sanders
Not that user but Kubo posts a lot on twitter so going back to find tweets she made years ago would take a lot of time, or would be impossible to do if you use the twitter app. I can't imagine why people would bother unless they found these tweets soon after they were posted.
Chase Cruz
The JJ image is a reference because it's a professional skater, several of the dance images (like one of Yurio's moves) were just random.
The difficult pose Chris does is by a famous poledancer, but I don't see why 5 frames had to be a "reference".
Nolan Murphy
People have the impression that tweets go away once they're off the main timeline and they've forgotten about them. This is why twitter is so great for doxxing. People make literal thousands of tweets about little things and you can skim a few keywords and watch the info pile up. Once I found a psychologist fujo who posted photos of her work computer with unblurred patient info and talked about how bored she was and how she wished she was at home writing gay porn instead.
Within thirty minutes I knew her full name, her mom's full name, where the both of them lived, where they worked (at a psychology clinic specializing in child services), and more images of patient info because she had 22.1k tweets and never thought that any of it would come back to bite her in the ass and reported her to her employers for violating client-patient confidentiality. Within 48 hours,19k+ tweets disappeared and she cried (on twitter) about how people were violating her privacy and then privatized her account for a few days.
People are retarded.
Mason Morris
Hot desu.
Jason Myers
They wouldn't change the background in the DVD release if they did nothing wrong. Seriously, fucking embarrassing that they got caught tracing the background. The DVD background that they did from scratch look like shit
Joshua Reed
Someone delete this thread. It's worthless and unnecessary.
Adrian Lewis
The funny thing here is that she could have complained on twitter without posting a photo in the first place. Or even about her job. I can't believe I'm paranoid someone I know irl could find me on twitter when I don't even post selfies or anything that could "out" me when I see cases like that.
I heard Kubo is starting to block people who question her about her weird tweets, no idea if that's true.
Connor Mitchell
For a more anime-relevant 'people are retarded', a few years back there was an animator who got in serious shit because she tweeted about how much she couldn't stand a show she was working on (KnB) and that she had lost/threw away some of her character reference sheets. Between that and fans getting pissed off about her posting gay porn of another show she worked on (Haikyuu), she got fired.
No, she absolutely had to post images with confidential information of child patients. How else would her fujo friends be able to see about how she would stop in the middle of work documents and make such fahny jokes about gay love and ass eating?
I wouldn't be surprised if Kubo was doing that. It seems to be a persistent thorn in her side at this point, for understandable reasons.
Leo Morris
I'm a fujo but I can't see myself posting anything about gay fanfics or BL in general on twitter, even under a fake name. This is just stupid, she brought this on herself. But in Kubo's case, since she's a mangaka it's not really the same thing, in a way. If she tweeted less creepy things I wouldn't be too surprised to see a mangaka talk about how she would like to write or draw homoshit.
Will Kubo become the new Hideki Kamiya? She seems to love posting on twitter and instagram so I can't see her deleting her account altogether. I feel like most people don't know or care about how she wants to see porn of famous skaters anyway.
Levi Sanchez
May the plagiarism shitstorm drown them.
Caleb Murphy
I wonder which skater it was, because if it was a less famous one nobody would care, but if it was somebody like Yuzu she'd be dead by now since his fans are so obsessed and don't like the wave of newfags the anime has brought in.
Jose Myers
いや、ネトウヨの戯言なんてどうでもいいわ。
Luis James
>Reference =/= trace You're right. But they are using the exact same perspective with minor changes for plausible deniability. That's very definitely tracing.
Wyatt Davis
Konnichiwa, meme mahou desu.
Aaron Hill
Kubo could be a literal Hitler and I wouldn't care as long as she makes entertaining anime, desu.
Ryan Clark
>desu >no sage for this shit thread
Jordan Kelly
Even after all these, I think the anime was still pretty tame at showing the butt Yamamoto and a fellow figure skaterfag that I am we deserve
Ethan Myers
Oh no she had a weird sexual thought! Oh no she stole a sweater when she was desperate and poor once when she was 19.
Really, that's the best you got?
Connor Rogers
>and a photo of a interior decoration,
I advise you to never watch anything KyoAni if that bothers you
Noah Powell
Japanese people think harming someone in self defense is horrible and you should let yourself be murdered instead, so it's not going to do her any favor.
Levi Turner
My thoughts exactly. This is ridiculous.
Jackson Harris
>Oh no she had a weird sexual thought! Remember how back in November Murrican media couldn't stop shitting itself over something Trump said like 10 years ago? >Oh no she stole a sweater when she was desperate and poor once when she was 19. So stealing because you are poor is totally fine?
Colton Barnes
eh, i mean that much is about expected. you can't make something like this(sports manga/anime) without references.
edgy
Justin Thompson
It's a background designed by and comprised of furniture from a furniture company that had its own copyright rights.
Levi Murphy
Sadly I don't think anyone will truly care. Didn't Love Live rip off Glee? And it's still selling like hot cakes.
Charles Richardson
Is this the autistic nip that had a twitter dedicated to tweeting Yuri on Ice to people to try to get people to copyright? And he tweeted it to skaters who ended up watching it and loving it. God what a retard.
Oliver Kelly
First week here?
Isaiah Lopez
My sides.
Dylan Ward
Fuck off back to Sup Forums
Ryder Collins
That's hilarious.
Jaxon Sanders
Difference between KyoAni and this mess is KyoAni goes out on location to take their own photographs to use for reference. Here they just stole some stock photos which is why they had to change it on the DVD
Andrew Flores
Kekkerino.
Camden Nguyen
>50k >50k >50k >50k Please cry more, tears are good lube.
Chase White
Hamplanet defense force in full power.
Kubo is still a retard for keeping such stuff public and writing such things on social media in the first place, I see her on the same level as those guys that talk about lolicon on their facebook accounts.
Chase Nelson
Read the thread retard.
Nathan Mitchell
No need to be so aggressive, what's funny is funny. It can't be helped.
John Jackson
50k excuses blatant ripoffs?
Dylan Clark
Its means get fucked loser. No one cares. Not even you.
Isaiah Morris
i mean don't even care about the show itself. but blatant ripoffs is something that should be looked down upon by everyone in the industry
Julian Richardson
>i mean don't even care about the show itself. Sure. Dude, if it bothers you so much go sue her or smth.
Carter Kelly
Yes. It's good enough to not give a fuck about referencing and paid stock photos. OP wouldn't be that butthurt if YoI was unpopular.
Jayden Martin
Maybe if it didn't happen so frequently. No one said anything in Free when Kyoani ripped off Nagisas bed from a magazine. No one cares. The people this autistic nip is tweeting to dont care. They tweeted one of Victors suits to a company who told him to fuck off. Get over it. You're only commenting because its a popular fujoshit show.
Henry Peterson
More coherent English than Hiro
Jaxson Ward
Hiro only pretends to be retarded.
Jose Young
Because no one cares. No Game No life illustrator are already done that before YOI and no one fucking cares.
