Copyright Infringement - DENIED

What hope is that this project will catch the eye of someone who make anime and then there we be a official pokespe anime.

However you bring up alot of good points.

This is something that we need to think about.

We've already had a discussion about this, and we decided that we will not approach VIZ, Nintendo, or any other copyright/license holders and we will instead attribute all of the holders and makers of pokemon and pokespecial entirely and completely. We will make sure to step on as few toes as possible, and we will only start a real effort on advertising after we've gotten a significant amount of episodes animated, most likely the first arc.

And also, I sincerely doubt anybody but VIZ media in America will take any negative stands on this at all. In japan, fan works such as this are highly supported, such as doujinshi and everything. Nintendo probably wont even notice us, and if they do, I doubt they'll care a wink so long as we stay non-profit, make everything ourselves as we plan to, attribute correctly, and appear to be having a fun time. Copyright laws aren't the huge issue in Japan as they are in America.

VIZ would be the only company we would need to worry about, and again, so long as we properly attribute, stay none-profit, and don't tread on too many toes, nothing will happen. And don't worry about being sued. Nobody is going to sue a group of mostly minors that is spread throughout the world so diversely it would just be insane and stupid to get the court involved, on the offense of making a fan anime. At worst, we'll get a 'cease and desist' from VIZ.

I mean really, though, think about it. We have about 10 people in america, that's it. We've got people in France, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, England, Australia, and many more. If anybody wanted to sue us, they'd get other countries involved for something really stupid and trivial. >.>;

Here's the old thread, by the way: http://pokespeanime.forumotion.com/problems-and-issues-f3/copyright-t89.htm

edit: i was basically going to say what joy-joy said, but she beat me to the punch. So yeah...

...joy-joy? Are you seriously going to call me 'joy-joy' now? >.>;

yes You like the name, admit it

uuuuum....not really. XD I don't care the much, but WHY?

And yes. OFF-TOPIC CONVO IS OFF-TOPIC. XD

well, mostly because i know someone named joy, and i call them joy-joy. So, by calling you it...i have to remember less names? Yeah, i just like the name joy-joy.

YES OFF-TOPIC FTW!!!!!

>w>

Joy-joy <3

Joy-joy's a nice name! There's no problem with it. (I want a Nickname! ...Tweety?)

But yeah, it's already been discussed. Just hope for the best and keep moving forward with progress.

Maybe this thread should be closed? I dunno.

Mwahahahaha! My nickname has power!!!!!1

D'aw, I always liked just Tweetums, but tweety does have a certain ring to it....hmm, i'll adopt it.

Yeah, this thread should probably be locked...

Thread locked, issues resolved.
