Japanese most famous idol group Johnny’s “KAT-TUN” plagiarized VOCALOID’s song?

A suspicion that a song of the most famous idol group Jonny’s production’s KAT-TUN can be a plagiarized work of VOCALOID Megurine Luka’s popular song “DYE“.

KAT-TUN released the song “NEVER x OVER ~「-」 IS YOUR PART~” that is much talked about now on the 17 November.

VOCAOLOID Megurine Luka’s “DYE” was made and upload on video websites by AVTechNO March 2010. And the song was included in VOCALOID’s compilation album EXIT TUNES PRESENTS Vocalogenesis feat. Hatsune Miku is a well-known as  the album that came to the 1st place in Oricon weekly album ranking for the first time as VOCALOID’s CD.

“DYE” is included in the album as the 17th track.

The creator AVTechNO deleted his all songs from nico nico douga. And he says in his blog
Oh!…The song sounds exactly like mine…
Of cause, I didn’t approve anything and don’t know any detailed thing about it. What’s happened?
It is a shock for me, too much

DYE

They are mad because they antagonize Otaku.

Though I though this tumult was caused by who only want to clamor, the song is exactly similar to the original more than I imagined.

They committed plagiarism unreservedly the song.

This crib exceeds limits where they can give an evasive answer.

Indeed, this is a plagiarized work.

But the creator can’t defeat them because his opponent is that Johnny’s production.

    I think that song is good because VOCALOID sings that song.
    Human being can’t sing that song.
