| Quote: | | Oraora-kei is a fashion offshoot from the larger yankii culture, and it features stylized hair and sunglasses, among other signature looks. The plaintiff happens to run an apparel company known for Oraora-kei fashion. |
Which came first? Is that the basis for that Jojo attack, or is it named after that Jojo attack?

lol, whoops. that's why you should ask the people's permissions before you put them in your manga, like they did with Bakuman.

Shouldn't it be Bōsōzoku and not Bippu?

ok I read the whole article and all I'm getting is that a manga artist used a magazine photo of some fashion model and he's throwing a piss fit because he wasn't asked if his over dressed mug could be used as a base for a character. Seriously

Uh....yes? If somebody uses your likeness in a published work, they have to get your permission first. It's not really a complex law.

Well, I think it's a bit more complicated than that. This is, after all, drawn; it's not like the manga-ka incorporated a photographic image of this person into the manga. I'm sure this isn't the first artist to base a drawing on a photograph. The only way I'd think the plaintiff could argue that he was being improperly exploited was in the attached "oraora" name, but even there it's apparently a well-known fashion style in Japan and not the plaintiff's actual name. To me this decision stifles artistic freedom.
