This also violates intellectual property rights. A Japanese woman was sued for making and selling "Demon Slayer" themed cakes

It is not uncommon to celebrate a friend's birthday with a cake made in the image of their favorite anime character. However, this may cause big trouble in Japan. According to Japanese media reports today, on November 9, a 34-year-old woman was prosecuted for making and selling "Demon Slayer" themed cakes.

On November 9, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department reported a "special" case of violation of intellectual property rights. A 34-year-old woman living in Tokyo made a "Demon Slayer" themed cake and sold it to four customers, earning sales revenue of 56,700 yen, so she was prosecuted by the prosecutor's office.

The woman will be prosecuted for allegedly infringing on the intellectual property rights of "Demon Slayer". The police reminded other cake practitioners that in Japan, they cannot arbitrarily make cakes with images of various anime games, movies, TV series and other products for sale.
