That's what I'm saying, all the stuff he makes if you decide to zoom in just a bit, you can tell its not in a good resolution, especially the eyes. The outfits he makes can be good, but they just lack resolution like other creators have, and resolution goes a long way to making things look good.
He uses reference sheets that the character designer will upload on their Pixiv or Twitter pages. It works perfectly for this style of hair-making because the characters drawn in the sheet also tend to face directly forward, just like the preview pictures. The reference sheet can work fine for things like reference material for outfits or sometimes even iris overlays, but definitely not for hair if you just plan to cut and paste it onto an image plate accessory.
I am posting here as the original creator of the Koikatsu character cards and scene data that have recently been shared in this forum.
First, I want to make it clear that I am not here to cause trouble, argue, or disrupt the community in any way. I am simply trying to protect my own work as the creator.
These files are my original creations and are distributed only to paying supporters through my official platforms. I did not give permission for them to be reuploaded or shared here.
After learning about this situation, I contacted several individuals directly. Some of them understood the situation and kindly removed the files, which I truly appreciate. Since some users do not have direct messages open, I am posting here publicly to request removal.
I respectfully ask that any files containing my works be removed and that no further redistribution take place. Unauthorized sharing directly affects my ability to continue creating and fairly support the people who choose to support my work.
That said, I do appreciate that some of you enjoy my work. Thank you for your interest in my creations. I will continue doing my best to create even better scenes.
I do not intend to stay here or be active in this forum. I only came to communicate this matter as the creator.
I sincerely hope we can resolve this calmly and respectfully. Thank you for your understanding.
All types of content on the internet are susceptible to piracy, that's not going to change. There are people here who wouldn't pay for your content because they simply don't have the money to spend on something that's just a hobby. There are people here who may have only discovered your work because of a leak and may indeed have supported you financially or will do it in the future.
I already said this to another creator who showed up here, but I'll repeat it. Piracy is visibility. The people who consume your pirated content aren't people who would pay for it, you're not losing audience or money, damn you may even have gained more visibility because there are people here who can and are willing to pay for the content, but they are also kind enough to share it with those who can't
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I originally only intended to state my position and not reply further, but I would like to add a small clarification to avoid misunderstandings.
As someone who has been creating scenes for a long time, I also feel that the number of new Koikatsu users has been decreasing. Because of that, even before I learned about the recent leaks, I released some of my scenes for free last December. My intention was simply to help more people become interested in Koikatsu.
As the number of my scenes has grown, managing Google Drive links has also become more time-consuming. For that reason, I had already been planning to start releasing some of my older scenes for free on a monthly basis (the recent situation just delayed my announcement). I don’t know how much impact this will have, but I hope to begin doing this soon.
It is unfortunate that Illusion, the company behind Koikatsu, is no longer around and that the number of new players may be declining. However, I believe the people here understand how fun and special Koikatsu can be. In that sense, I see you as fellow fans of the same creative space.
To be clear, I did not come here to cause conflict, but simply to explain my situation as a creator and ask for your understanding.
I hope you will continue to enjoy the new scenes I create.
Everyone understand, you just want money and hate to see your content freely shared, you don't care about anything else and THAT'S GOOD. We love money, is a normal feeling.
But that doesn't negate the fact that these kinds of platforms exist for those who don't want to or can't buy your products through traditional means. It's like demanding that a Venezuelan (minimum monthly salary $4.12) subscribe to your Patreon because "ugh I want money," no, that's diabolical. Nor demand someone who hasn't tried your product do so through your subscriptions; it's silly. Why would if never had a chance to test it?. Yeah cool you release some of your scenes for free, okay? It's not about throwing a bone and expecting us dog to calm down or pretend that this will increase the use and consumption of Koikatsu...?
Koikatsu It's a game, which has studio, which is a tool, a tool that to a greater or lesser extent you have used not as vanilla, some variation of Koikatsu, HP, BR and so on, with free mods, free plugins, free technical support, and literally everything free, made by and for the community, free, free work without payment done simply out of love for the art and the community, yet you here policing us.
facilitate access to your products, literally Gabe Newell says "We think there is a fundamental misconception about piracy. Piracy is almost always a service problem and not a pricing problem," he said. "If a pirate offers a product anywhere in the world, 24 x 7, purchasable from the convenience of your personal computer, and the legal provider says the product is region-locked, will come to your country 3 months after the US release, and can only be purchased at a brick and mortar store, then the pirate's service is more valuable."
Steam is literally proof that people don't have a problem paying for your products; they have a problem with the policies. We're not talking about sharing all your scenes for $1, but I apologize if I don't want to jump through hoops like Sunyass did. All the games I pirated in my childhood I ended up buying on Steam at full price in many cases, or I donate the free games because they were a part of my childhood, and as me, literally 99% of us here is literally the same.
And if one out of every three scenes is free, maybe we'll give it a try, and end up subscribing to use the remain ones. The reason your content is here is because is not available there (your profiles).
That said, it’s also an undeniable fact that creating content takes time and effort. Because of that, we shouldn’t mock or dismiss the work creators put in. and SkyArcadia isn’t someone who set up some shady or unreasonable paid policy either.
Anyway, everyone here knows that simply telling people “stop leaking” out of the blue isn’t going to magically solve anything. In fact, it only provokes backlash and ends up encouraging leaks even more.
It doesn’t feel like you came here to communicate, but rather to stir up conflict and then leave. If that’s the case, it only makes it harder for people to view you favorably.
Still, the fact that this situation exists at all probably means there are people who genuinely enjoy your work. I sincerely hope you continue creating good work going forward.
Yes, indeed, nobody complains that its content is bad (is kind of good), but instead it's the same old paywalling thing. It's not about a shady or unreasonable paid policy, is entitlement.
I respectfully ask that any files containing my works be removed and that no further redistribution take place. Unauthorized sharing directly affects my ability to continue creating and fairly support the people who choose to support my work.
Remember that you're dealing with someone who has this big corpo shithead thinking of "we lose money because of piracy," like Lady Gaga loses money because someone shared one of her songs on YouTube
Hey look! Lady Gaga lost 1.7M potential sales from the actual 8.9 million estimated sales!!!!! Dude please. Yeah, just came here, spit on us like "ugg don't leak my content" and move on, Harada yet being way over the goal, back off a little bit, well understanding we are not the problem but itself. We are not it comrades, it friends, it supporters, nothing, 0 reasons to come here.
I will delete this account today and will not access this forum again. I will simply continue my creative activities as usual.
If you have any thoughts or messages for me, please feel free to contact me through direct messages on platforms such as pixiv. I sincerely wish you all a fun and enjoyable Koikatsu life！
There's literally 0 need to delete it. We're not just a leaks forum; we're also a discussion and support forum, something you know you can't have the same freedom of on your own Pixiv profile because you'll get banned. You might not get anything of expected value (money) and you'll get bored with us, you'll play along for a couple of days for the excitement and then abandon it to follow your own, just like Harada to give an example, and that's the thing, you on your own, we on ours.
And for everyone else, don't even think about contacting on it pixiv. It's literally self-snitching, doing that is literally no positive interaction of any kind for yourself. This is not your fella spideydank nice fella who doesn't care about profile itself or Harada. Is nothing personal, nobody hates you, but get real.
The original author is truedudelarry. However, his Pixiv and Kenzato accounts have both been deleted. The card is now preserved on Bepis. Archive link: https://db.bepis.moe/koikatsu/view/99364，The original name is 77354263 p5
The rule most people follow here is that, if a creator makes an effort to make their content available for free after a certain period of time, we should avoid sharing their content as it's normal that someone making KK content full time should expect some form of compensation for their work.
People who make no effort to make any of their content available for free after a certain time, however, enjoy no such protections here.
The importance of sharing content for free is so people can continue to become interested in Koikatsu. If newcomers had to pay for every card, scene and plugin, no one would get into Koikatsu, and eventually people like you could not make any money from it if no one plays and buys. If anything, currently declining sales numbers among supporters of paid KK creators is likely a result of the economic downturn combined with an increasing amount of paywalled content creating a barrier of entry for new people.
Similarly, if every KK content creators out there had to operate like most industries, and pay license fees to creators to use plugins and mods like Madevil, Xukmi, KKUTS, augh, Creamstar, nHaruka, etc. in commercial works, then you would likely not make much money, or even lose money, running a paywalled content page.
A real world example is people using a pirated version of photoshop to make paid content, and were contacted by Adobe and sometimes sued, for using a pirated license.
I will give you props for being one of the very few creators out there who doesn't abuse copyrighted characters they do not own and do not have the commercial rights to use in paid content, but that's about it.
Basically my point is that if you only harvest a field, and never seed or maintain it, eventually it will be barren.
It's not that it was uncomfortable or anything, I only mentioned something just in case it might have been a mistake, an accident, or what ever the case may have been. If anything, I had made that post so that in the best case scenario, it can be improved. No ill will was meant, and I'm sorry if it seemed that way.
I feel like enough time has passed since the release of the card, so I'm going to make a request based on it, and a few others I saw from the same author.

No problem, I also thought they meant the cards weren't shared at all but figured out what they meant after realizing only their paywalled cards said that and were the ones that were shared here also, here's Sankuku Sanagi Yuzu and Shylily
omg it cant be? more phase connect cards please if someone have this give it to me i need more for my collection please i beg you i have no rie is on my top 3 cards i want the most please i beg you
I’ve started the free release of my past scenes, which I had been planning for some time.
This includes all scenes and videos created up through February 2025, as well as 14 additional scenes (unreleased or expanded versions) and data for my original characters.
Starting next month, I will also release the scenes created in March 2025, and after that, one additional past month of scenes will be released for free each month. In total, this will make more than half of all the scenes I’ve created available for free.
If you haven’t experienced my scenes before, I hope you might take this opportunity to check them out.
Also, I was planning to delete this account, but I couldn’t find the option to do so. If anyone knows how to delete an account here, I would appreciate your guidance😭
Thank you as always for your support. To help more people discover Koikatsu and enjoy the worlds and scenes I create, I have decided to begin releasing my past scene data for free. ■ What will be released To start, I will be making all scenes created between 2024 and February 2025 publicly ava...

We can´t delete accounts here, the closest thing to that would be to ask for a permanent ban from the owner of this forum @kloeny233. But are you sure? You could simply log out of this account and leave for now. A lot of people, players and authors are here, if this place grows big enough to close doors and become invite-only like some other places, it won´t hurt to keep one account already here.
