   Although Slam Dunk is a shonen manga!  And the shoujo artist   
   should not have copied the Slam Dunk images or at least not   
   admitted doing it.  Don't people know how to say it was homage,   
   HOMAGE!  And also I lost the original artwork.   
      
   You know Hagiwara is actually drawing Bastard for reals because   
   it takes him 4 years to finish one volume's worth or material, that   
   my friends is an artist!
