@DarkKirby Exactly. This was basically a parody/tribute to SMB. I mean, look at TeamFourStar. They have been making DBZ parodies for YEARS! AND have a Patreon account! So people saying "Oh, he's stealing, he's stealing!" is total BS.

Now, on the other hand, how he HANDLED the situation(dealing with his fans back then and dealing with Nintendo now), Is a completely different situation. He REALLY should've had more tact than that.

@LUIGITORNADO Kid?! Fool, I'm 34 years old! What, a guy can have a passion for good animation? Everybody's on here like he made a bad Mario clone. He didn't! He made a parody of something he really loves, but he went about it the wrong way. Now, if he could get under the wing of somebody like, say, Machinima(or however you spell it), he could probably still do those.

@Smash_kirby My thing is, I know it's their IP, I know it's their right, but I PROMISE you, other people are taking donations and doing something in the neighborhood of this. It really struck a chord with me because I've been following this series ever since almost a decade ago on Newgrounds and have loved this series ever since. Plus, doing cool stuff like this cost a LOT of time, effort, resources, as well as finances.

I know it shouldn't be excused for what he did, but dude. Being a graphic artist is brutal when you have all of these cool ideas, but no type of resources or help...
