"Just today, a post-apocalyptic work called First Ruins has taken the internet by storm."
"Really?" Nora Scott raised an eyebrow.
"Let me fill you in slowly..."
Once Laura Collins finished her jelly, she leisurely began, "The author of this work is called UU, a newly trending manga artist who signed with CC Comics. She debuted under the name 'Little Zero'. Her first work, Your Future, mimicked Zero's art style and panel layout, gaining popularity through Zero's fame, and now she's somewhat famous."
"Oh."
Nora's tone remained calm.
Mimicking Zero's art style and panel layout is not uncommon in the industry.
Many renowned manga artists initially entered the industry by imitating and learning from other famous works, gradually forming their own style during the creative process. This isn't "plagiarism".
However, in her seven years in the industry, there have been quite a few who tried to imitate or learn from Nora Scott, but not many genuinely stood out.
