There are stories, characters or scenes that honor other works... Whether movies, books, series, video games, etc... But you run the risk of being accused of plagiarism...

Then I wonder... What would be the proper way to pay homage without being accused of plagiarism?

Pay homage to everyone. To all of the characters. All the Disney princesses and villains, all the mangas and animes, all of the tv shows and movies, all of the video game characters, and all of the book characters that weren't popular enough for anyone to want to play in a movie.

Steal from EVERYONE and then give it all back with a ribbon tied with so many IPs and OCs that the world just has to shut the fuck up, swallow hard, and bow its collective head and then look up at you with grateful, teary eyes and says, "based retard"

basically this
plagarize from all sources you find inspiring and turn it into something of your own. mix and match things you'd think would be cool

You faggots are so creatively bankrupt. But hey, at least it's not another "Tracing is great" thread.

You take a few elements, not the WHOLE thing.
If Polnareff looked 100% like Michel Polnareff, if Balrog looked 100% with Mike Tyson, if Donkey Kong looked 100% with King Kong,etc... The japs behind these characters would be in deep trouble.

only in Japan since they all see each other as mutuals and are honored when someone likes their creation as far as creating an homage of it.

meanwhile in the west they'd probably send a twitter lynch mob after you and you'd have 3 reddit posts made about you.
