Dear readers, we recently received a complaint regarding the plagiarism of the comic book "The Netherworld Trickster". After investigation and verification, it was found that the work had previously been warned by the platform for plagiarism and removed from the shelves for rectification. After being put back on the shelves, the plagiarism problem had not been completely corrected.

We will never condone or tolerate such bad behavior of knowingly making mistakes and repeating them. Based on the principle of firmly resisting plagiarism and protecting originality, we have decided to permanently remove "Nethercrafter".

Since Bilibili Comics was launched four years ago, we have deeply realized the difficulty of the Chinese comics industry and the preciousness of high-quality original works. Respecting originality means respecting the meaning of creation. Protecting originality means protecting the value of wisdom. We hope to work together with all comics creators and readers to resolutely resist plagiarism, preserve the spark of originality, strive to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of creators and readers, and let Chinese comics breed infinite vitality in a healthy and orderly environment.
