Haven't I posted the Kanno-Similarities thread at least twice on this board? Yes, there's some
serious plagiarism in here catalogue that needs to be addressed. I've gone through all the cases personally, and her theft in many of those cases is undeniable.

I'm a bit disappointed in the Tsugunai Pub similarity--that's pretty close. However a lot of these are pretty far from the mark. For example the Mars stuff--sure the Mario 3 tune is obvious, but the FM2 tracks? Not a chance. You could say that all martial orchestral themes written since 1900 are influenced by Mars, but few are true lifts (might want to ask Hans Zimmer about that).
