Frieren Doujinshi Banned on FANZA
FANZA has banned doujinshi creation for Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End. This is due to a complaint from the copyright holders. [Thanks, Tachiyomi (Unofficial)!]
This news appears to come from a user who attempted to register their Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End doujinshi with FANZA. The whole reply from FANZA to them states that it apologizes to the circle, but the copyright holders of Frieren have requested that FANZA not host any content from that series. It has since made the work private and removed it from the site.
So, technically speaking, it’s not that people aren’t allowed to create doujinshi for Frieren. It’s more that sites like FANZA will not officially host it because of the request. It’s unclear if this request came from the author and illustrator themselves or from Shogakukan, the original manga's publisher. Reactions online have been mixed because English and Japanese users have different responses to the news.
