does anyone have a theory for why (effectively) selling an image that is (effectively) labelled "Studio Ghibli" without permission from Studio Ghibli wouldn't be illegal

because it seems super illegal

i find it very amusing and i like it, but this is true of many things that are illegal

Max Kennerly (@maxkennerly.bsky.social):

There's a whole cottage industry of baloney justifications for the plagiarism machine having one-way IP rights, but I simply do not see how "produce this work in the style of [specific artist] which you can do because you have their complete works in your training" can possibly be fair use.

Reasons why illegal: Dilution of trademark, fraud, defamation, tortious interference with business relationship, forced association …
