Mass plagiarism destroys the uniqueness of art, especially when considered as your own. Becomes vicious and repetitive to those who does not have enough room for self-expression / free-will. It has happened months ago

何年もの間、私を支え続ける皆様、ありがとうございました。自分自身であることを忘れないでください。"より大きな芸術を創造する！"

Fujio Akatsuka (1935-2008) and his beloved cat Kikuchiyo (1979-1997)

The artist who created osomatsukun was a cat lover.

The manga HANA NO KIKUCHIYO was modeled on his furry son.

Later on the cat appered on several tv commercials (Japan Railway Company, Konica Minolta, etc.) , and became as famous as his owner. This feline star had his bank account full of performance fee, sometimes Akatsuka borrowed some money from his pet.

Since the cat passed away, his spirit has been enshrined at Fujio Akatsuka Memorial Hall in Ome city.

Now Kikuchiyo sleeps in Tetsugakudo Pet Cemetery, Tokyo.
