Nice to show they have that bottomless love for the fans who make them money, you know?

That's big corporation for you. Always ready to find new ways to profit even when it's bad PR. Let me remind you that this is after Lucasfilm had defended that one guy who had made that Darth Vader fan film when Disney had claimed it. So they went and wasted good will from that.

Btw, I love your avatar. Is that Kallen from Code Geass?

Yes it's Kallen. C.C. was my other choice.

I don't know how copyright works with fan works. I assume that the copyright holder can do what they please with ''your'' art or fanfiction given how it is based on their work. But that is just my opinion.

I will never take back my opinion that most anime is creepy as f-. How old is she meant to be? Not legal surely given how she is in school. I have lost count of the amount of times I gave sat down to watch an anime and then some anti-gravity breasted minor appears and i'm like ''nope. Turn off.''
