The artist was accused of selling an illustration zine with AI generated art on the 2023 Comiket in Tokyo, Japan. In their defense, Araizumi posted videos and screenshots of their work files, in which the process and separate layers of the illustrations can be seen. In response to proof provided by Araizumi, a handful of users offered apologies, while many silently erased their posts.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1295\" height=\"905\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1295px) 100vw, 1295px\" src=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/20230815-20729-001.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20732\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/20230815-20729-001.jpg 1295w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/20230815-20729-001-600x419.jpg 600w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/20230815-20729-001-380x266.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/20230815-20729-001-768x537.jpg 768w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/20230815-20729-001-150x105.jpg 150w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/20230815-20729-001-300x210.jpg 300w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/20230815-20729-001-696x486.jpg 696w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/20230815-20729-001-1068x746.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/20230815-20729-001-601x420.jpg 601w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/20230815-20729-001-100x70.jpg 100w\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Rui Araizumi&#8217;s illustrations for Slayers<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Rui Araizumi is most well known as the illustrator of the 90s hit manga Slayers, and their art style has maintained a retro-like charm throughout the years.
