After admitting several years down the line that he stole sprites and code for his Lilith, BBH
proves once more that he is the smartest creator on the planet with Yoma Komatsu. Not only does this character have
quite bad MSPaint sprites and no moves of any interest whatsoever, but it also shows that he has learned absolutely
nothing. There's more stolen code in this character than sluts in a catholic girls' school.
Right in the readme, BBH credits two Japanese creators, nana and y.y for their works - Dizzy and Robo Rock, respectivly.
This immedietly struck me as odd - why on earth would he give thanks to these creators simply for releasing certain
characters? My sick curiousity aroused, I headed to nana's site, the
only of the two creators pages up at the moment, and began downloading Dizzy. I didn't even have to do that much, though -
right in the CNS, there's a line which reads "; Roman Cancel (from nana's Dizzy)." The code in both the CNS and CMD,
while not identical, certainly resembles the code in Dizzy. Let's take BBH on his word here, and move on to the next
example!
Next is the Psych Burst, credited to y.y's Robo Rock. Unfortunetly, I was unable to get this character, as
y.y's site was down when I attempted to reach it. Again, though,
BBH knows what he's talking about.
Now, I know some of you are thinking "Hey, wait a moment, Legato! How do you know he didn't get permission?" Well,
for one thing, he didn't say he had permission. And nana's site and readme say nothing about allowing the use
of such code, in English or Japanese. It's certainly possible, although very unlikely, that he does have permission
for this code. But this is BBH we're talking about - a guy who admitted to using sprites and code from MMR's Lilith
years after the fact expecting that somehow people wouldn't think there was something wrong with that.
Unfortunetly, Mugen GUILD proved him right.
I'll end by saying this - if BBH can prove he recieved permission to use all the code from other creators in Yoma,
I'll change this review. But the burden of proof is on him - he's pulled stunts like this before, and from all indications
on his Livejournal and elsewhere, he hasn't learned a damn thing. Prove you've shaped up or get the hell out of the scene,
BBH.
UPDATE! BBH admitted it and he's on the way to a quick banning from Guild and pretty much the entire rest of
the English-language MUGEN community. He didn't even try to hide it. What a moron.
