Kenjiro Tsuda’s AI Voice Lawsuit Against TikTok Has Been Dismissed Jujutsu Kaisen and Yu-Gi-Oh! voice actor Kenjiro Tsuda sued TikTok over 188 videos allegedly using an AI-generated imitation of his voice without permission. The Tokyo District Court dismissed his request to have the videos removed because the posts had already been deleted. However, the court also ruled that a performer’s voice can potentially be protected under publicity rights. The court did not determine that the specific videos violated Tsuda’s publicity rights, but the ruling could have broader implications as AI voice cloning becomes increasingly common.

Tatsuki Fujimoto Plans to Approach Death From a Different Perspective Tatsuki Fujimoto has repeatedly returned to death, loss, and creation throughout his work. While discussing Look Back, Fujimoto revealed that a line he encountered — “the only way to reconcile with death is through creation” — became a central idea behind the story. He explained that the concept also connected with themes he had explored in ‘Fire Punch’ and ‘Chainsaw Man’, suggesting that his fascination with death isn’t limited to a single manga. With Fujimoto continuing to develop new ideas, his future stories could explore that relationship between death and creation in entirely new ways.
