PASTEL PLAGIARISM
There’s a new “aesthetic” (yuck) washing over social media: AI-generated slop mimicking the lush, hand-crafted beauty of Studio Ghibli. It’s whimsical, dreamlike, and eerily accurate — too accurate. What looks like a loving tribute to one of the world’s most beloved animation houses, is far more sinister once the veneer of internet trendiness and cuteness is ripped away. It’s a soulless demon, discrediting and disrespecting the life’s work of some of planet earth’s finest creatives.
