My given manga collection and merch from Japan ٩(^‿^)۶

Hey guys. I go by deelinquin and I’m a small business that makes anime clothing. Y’all have shown me so much love in the past for my Tokyo Ghoul pieces and I’m really appreciative of this community as y’all have impacted both me and my business in ways yall can’t even imagine.

Recently it’s come to my attention that this big anime gym company that goes by Invicta-Kuru straight up stole one of my Tokyo Ghoul designs and sold out instantly.

It’s an absolute gut punch seeing this piece that I put so much work into get absolutely plagiarized by a brand as big as them. Just imagine developing a product as a broke college student in an apartment with no furniture, just for a huge company steal it and pass it off as their own 3 years down the line and profit off of your hard-work.

As a small and first time business owner, I just don’t have access to the amount of resources these guys do. I can’t put hundreds or thousands into marketing like they do. I started this brand from scraps in a college apartment where my common area was basically like a warehouse for my work.

When my designs get taken and dumbed down to suit these fast fashion cash grabs, my art gets drowned out. We see it all the time in the anime clothing industry. The loss of authenticity and craftsmanship in exchange for profit and mass production, it’s not a new phenomenon.

I’m not posting this because I want pity or a handout. I want to bring awareness to how detrimental plagiarism can be for small brands like me. Small brands who don’t have the firepower to stand up to the big guys.

(Last slide is them blocking my gf for calling them out in the comments. Just goes to show they know they’re guilty)

I recently stumbled across this metal Millennium necklace that I had put into storage. I got it from a friend ages ago because he knows I like Yugioh. (He doesn’t know where he got it.)

The thing is, I’ve done tons of research trying to figure out where it originates from. AND I CANT FIND IT!
I can find something that looks similar listed on eBay. But there are noticeable differences in packaging and very little information about the product itself.

From what I can tell there is no historical record in any official catalogue archive, not even in Japan.

I do know that there was a limited time release of millennium items produced by a company called Movic sometime between 1997 to 1999, but those releases were limited events and only in Japan. I can’t find much information about them beyond that.

I’m not even sure how to go about confirming the origin of this. I feel like I hit a dead end in my research.

So if any of y’all have ideas I’d love the help! :)

Edit; It’s definitely possible it’s a knock-off, but my autism wants a solid answer lol.
So Im still trying to find anything that I could use to verify the authenticity. I have seen eBay listings but usually only a photo or two matches, and the card definitely doesn’t match what is shown in those listings. But I can’t verify that those listings are real either so either one could be fake.
The only thing that makes me believe this is authentic is the excellent packaging.

Hi everyone, I was hoping that some of you could please take my survey, should take you about only 3 minutes.

I’m having the worst time dealing with this company, has anyone bought from them before? I purchase this Itachi hoodie at the very start of February, with zero idea it takes them 8-10 weeks to produce, (that is my fault, make sure to read everything on the description page) but now it’s been beyond that and I still don’t have the hoodie… Whenever I email them they seem really combative. They refuse to give me a refund. I bought this in February, and now it’s May. I don’t need a hoodie for the summer time lol. Please stay away from this company, horrible concept that it takes 10+ weeks to make a hoodie.
