Maybe doujinshi is where we need to be

It seems today that copywritten material has become far too strict. In order to be creative you can't be looking over what you have done and wondering if you might get in trouble for it.

One's creative potential is shriviling underneath copywritten material. I believe as long as you are not making an exact replica of someone else's work you should be able to create as you please. In Japan, the idea of doujinshi seems to be the kind of creativity that we are not allowed to think twice about doing. I believe doujinshi should be the boundary we hit when it comes to how far we can go when it comes to violating copywritten material. What good is creativity if you have to keep looking over your shoulder to make sure you aren't breaking any laws.
