Sorry Love Live doujin fans, but it looks like the idol anime’s rights holders are putting their foot down on unlicensed merchandise. This is because the official Love Live website announced that they’re asking fans and store owners to stop selling them.

Many well-known doujin stores, such as Tora no Ana, as well as events like Comiket, sell these doujin merchandise. Several arcades also put these fan-made yet unlicensed goods as prizes, while online stores also sell them. The rights holders are also making these people by sending Cease & Desist letters to these sellers and events. And they’re going to be strict, and won’t tolerate any person selling unlicensed Love Live merch. Their announcement also asks other fans not to make, sell, or buy these unlicensed works. They also thanked fans for their support of Live Live and Love Live Sunshine.

It’s also fair to say that the doujinshi industry is booming right now, with the anime industry itself seemingly encouraging fan-made works, particularly manga. Many in Japan view doujin manga circles as potential breeding grounds for legendary creators. In fact, several mangaka have first made names for themselves as doujin artists during Comiket. However, it still isn’t clear whether this ban on unlicensed goods also include doujin manga. Even though the announcement’s language seems to focus on goods, it didn’t really say anything about manga.

While many fans are speculating if this ban includes manga or not, other fans are also speculating why Love Live would go so far as to banning goods now of all times. Many speculate that when Love Live switched to AQOURS, merchandise sales dropped. Many theorize that this has lead to the rights holders to put their foot down and ban unlicensed goods.

LLfags on suicide watch

I hope this move bites them in the ass, nips must be pissed too

>implying they can stop it

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Not that I care about idolshit

(and the day before that, and before that)

>Many speculate that when Love Live switched to AQOURS, merchandise sales dropped.
oh wow

Idolmaster win baby.

Good. We need more things like this. Doujins have no right to exist.

>how do we kill a franchise?

This can't possibly go well for them.

>banning doujin goods (not doujinshis)
this is a good thing

I've probably spilled at least a liter of cum to Shouji Ayumu's lolis He's the best loli artist.

It could be just a publicity stunt, like when Blizzard said they considered sueing anyone that made Overwatch porn.
Don't know why though

thread?

This will be a disservice to humanity even if it drives off a single individual for giving something back to the people

>Eri
No thanks

>can't fap to LL rape porn anymore

this series is dead to me now

This won't stop me masturbating to them.

Don't worry guys, western fanart won't be affected by the ban!

LL died with μ's.

say goodbye to your ero manga

It probably doesn't affect porn since there's no official equivalent, what they're aiming for are card sleeves, folding fans, t-shirt and all that kind of crap that they'd rather sell themselves.

Idolmaster doujins is better anyway.

Pretty ironic. In the first LL anime, they had tons of people making and selling unlicensed goods of μ's.

You just had to, didn't you?

Jesus Christ how terrifying

They just lost 80% of their fanbase.

take your pick

You guys do realize they are very likely only banning counterfeit/copyright infringing physical goods made by fans, and not self published manga, right?

Why would they want to kill their own fanbase? Part of the reason these things get huge is because of the fanwork community. Imagine if no one could make derivative works based on Kemeno friends. It'd be dead

time for massive downloads

Don't really care, 90% of LL doujins are shit anyway.

>implying doujinshi aren't unlicensed merchandise

porn purge before Tokyo 2020

Hopefully this doesn't follow through to im@s since Sunrise is connected to Bandai-Namco.

Has anyone compiled overall numbers of recent im@s doujin vs muse doujin vs aqours doujin? Are the sunshines getting btfo so hard they have to cover up like this? Sausage sunrise.

>pissing off autistically dedicated idolfag fanbois

This will in no way backfire for greedy japanese music industry and their cheap, mass-produced plastic idols.

this is the most wrongest thing ever posted on Sup Forums

Kyoani should do this. I don't approve of those degenerate doujins of my wife.

doujinshi merchandise: e.g. keychain, etc, not doujinshi books. See garupan announcement few days back.

>hey guys I have a great idea, let's destroy one of the best money maker franchise

Tell me who your wife is so I can fap to her.

Implying you haven't already you rude bastard.

Oh, so they're going to make porn doujins themselves?

this.
Only good LL doujins were number2's, basutei shower, and

oh really? false alarm then I guess, I'd delete the thread but, well you know.

But I want to fap to her again, and I don't really feel like fapping to every Kyoani girl right now.
If they make it, it's not a doujin.

The anal ones with Maki were pretty good too.

Sounds like your waifu is a slut, mate. How am I kidding, of course she is: she's a KyoAni girl after all.

Good, maybe doujinshi artists will switch to something actually good instead of what's popular. Hopefully whoever makes Kantai Collection will follow suit.

Fucking idiots.

Good taste

more idolmaster then fuck yeah

>"Eh whatever it's not that bad as THAT u's fanart, it's cartoonish, whatever"
>dark skin Japanese Yoshiko and Kanan for no reason
>obese Mari and Hanamaru for no reason
Yeah no it's as bad.

are they though? I don't really care about LL but I'm always drawn in by their doujins, and I actually watch idolmaster I don't really have a ton more just because it's idolmaster, and like half of them are Okinai.

This will literally kill the franchise.

There's no confirmation one way or the other but it wouldn't really make sense to crack on porn, of course it's not like suits necessarily make decisons based on what makes sense.

It's not going to stop porn. In all likelihood, the amount of porn will increase.

Tora no ana was specifically mentioned. They only sell manga.

And slowly, what makes Sup Forumsnons Sup Forumsnons is being killed off.
Awaiting the next series/franchise to do this

Hopefully whoever makes Kantai Collection will follow suit.
I want this to happen and at the same time don't want it to happen.
My dick this is quite the pickle.

The person who made this lovecraftian abomination just looked at it one day and said: "Excellent, what a masterful work I have conceived. I will post this on the internet so everybody can admire my godlike skills."

Just think about it for a moment.

Do you hate diversity? Are you some kind of racist, anonymous?

Do you like shit? Are you some kind of masochist, anonymous?

>wowjapan.asia/2016/07/seiyuu-voice-actor-hiroshi-kamiya-married-child/
Who runs this site?

Do you understand sarcasm? Are you some kind of idiot, anonymous?

I'm kidding.

Do you understand jokes? Are you some kind of moron, anonymous?

probably one of those the hip young nu-otaku with their handy dandy web design skills and good hygene

It's only mentioned as example of where stuff gets sold, it doesn't really say TnA got a C&D letter.

>good hygiene
disgusting.

This is what I imagine, but the article is pretty vague so it's hard to tell for sure.

we've reached a sad state of affairs

I wonder what the hell their thought process was
>We banned all non official merchandise!
>Now we'll be able to make so much more profit!
>We can only go up from here :^)

Right looks so sterile and commercialist. His self-made waifu is also generic as hell.

>Even Anno and Miyazaki would wish to go back in time when being Otaku mean something

Tora no ana also sells other doujin products besides doujinshis

>Card sleeves

I occasionally wonder if the license holders (whether it is the IP holders or those who make the official ones) ever actually bothered to deal with them since I saw doujin card sleeves in almost all the card shops I went to in Japan

Literally nothing is happening retards.
They're only banning counterfeit merchandise. Which was already illegal in the first place.

It is a reminder of how inferior 3D is.

Time to download everything that is related with NozoELi

more like you have to buy them, inb4 they take them away.

Why would I buy if I can download it?

To ejaculate on the idols' faces.

miura pls go back to finish berserk

I mean, physical copy.

Anime became the new video games unfortunately.

Iori anal, best anal.

wait, what? did he marry with a child?

>Many speculate that when Love Live switched to AQOURS, merchandise sales dropped.
Maybe it's because some of us liked LL for MUSE and not these new group?
