I have this huge list of plagios I’ve been keeping track of for years now. I’ll be updating this post regularly as I notice others, so keep coming back to this post for more:

  • “Sorrow still in the Merry-go-round” by Ant1nett is identical to “Final” by Laputa.

  • “Tear Drop” by Milia∞ is a plagio of Schwarz Stein’s ‘Rise to Heaven’ . It’s the same lead in the intro of both songs.

  • “卒業(sotsugyou)” by Blitz has the same intro as “Ai Somaru Koro (藍染まる頃)” by DOWNER (ダウナー)

That’s because they were both composed by Ryouhei (涼平) and MEGAMASSO’s version is seen as continuation to the original, as shown in it’s lyrics.
