Yep. I saw that this morning. I guess some people are getting pissed now because tokyopop isn't pulling the submission. (Maybe even bad publicity is publicity.) I am just mad because it means someone (no one specifically) else's original submission didn't make it.
Yeah. But at least Tokyopop didn't realize how close it was: over on Love Manga (http://www.manga.omoikitte.com/2006/03/843/), greenapple2004 explains that the three judges hadn't actually read BotI.
And with this starting to swell up, it makes it less likely that someone will try this again in the immediate future.
Yep, I read that too. I was trying to type quickly and get to dinner so I think I was unclear. I am saying now that TP does know, people (like the last person on that thread) are getting mad it isn't being pulled, while I am upset with the actual artist for intentionally submitting and screwing someone else out of a spot.
Hurray!
