The copyright of doujin novels usually belonged to the author, not the copyright owner. Doujinshi referred to novels that were based on other works (such as anime, games, comics, movies, TV series, etc.) and were created according to the author's creativity and imagination. For Doujinshi authors, the copyright of their works included the literary form, content, ideas, and forms of expression. Doujinshi's copyrights were usually protected by the author himself, including after the work was published, before it was published, and when it was used. However, because doujinshi novels often involve other works in terms of theme and plot, the copyright owner may copyright the doujinshi novel to prevent unauthorized distribution and use. In this case, the author of the Doujin novel may need to negotiate with the copyright owner to obtain authorization and comply with the relevant regulations. Therefore, the copyright of doujinshi novels is usually protected by the author himself, but the copyright owner may protect it.

Doujinshi usually referred to another form of work based on existing literary works (such as comics, animations, novels, movies, etc.). Doujin novels were usually created by re-creating characters from existing works, such as changing their appearance, personality, background, etc., or combining them with other works. In the process of creating a doujin novel, if the copyright of the original work was not violated, it would not be considered an copyright violation. This was because Doujin novels were created out of love and recognition of the original work as a source of inspiration for their own creation, not malicious plagiarism or theft. However, if a Doujin novel uses the core elements of the original work (such as characters, plot, worldview, etc.) or maliciously distorts or destroys the original work, it may constitute copyright. Therefore, the creation of doujinshi novels had to strictly abide by the provisions of copyright law to avoid violating the copyright of the original work. At the same time, readers should also respect the original works and not download, distribute or share the copyright works at will to avoid unnecessary legal disputes.

Writing doujinshi is often seen as copyright violation because doujinshi is a novel based on the story, image, or plot of another person (usually a fictional character). This was because Doujinshi novels copied the content of the original work, including the characters, plot, and worldview, without obtaining the authorization of the original work. In many countries, including China and the United States, copyright laws prohibit the creation of second works, including doujinshi, without the authorization of the copyright owner. This meant that if you wrote doujinshi, you would have to comply with copyright law and could face legal risks. Even so, doujinshi novels were still allowed in some countries and in some cases considered a legal form of creation. However, if you want to write Doujin novels, you must first understand the relevant laws and regulations and try to obtain the authorization of the copyright owner of the original work.

Writing doujinshi in itself does not necessarily constitute copyright but using someone else's work (such as manga, novels, movies, etc.) as a source of inspiration for one's own creation and creating one's own original doujinshi work may constitute copyright. This is because copyright laws in many countries, including China, protect the author's original works regardless of their origin. If a doujinshi novel is based on someone else's work, the author may have the right to protect his original work and refuse to share or adapt other people's copyrights. Of course, the specific situation still needed to be judged based on the type of work, the source, and whether it involved the core content of other people's works.

Doujinshi referred to works that were based on the original work. The inspiration for the creation may come from the storyline, characters, background settings, etc. of the original work. The creation of doujinshi works is usually seen as a form of tribute, but it can also be seen as an act of copyright. There were two main issues regarding the copyright of doujinshi works: one was the copyright of the original work, and the other was the copyright of the doujinshi work. As for the copyright of the original work, under normal circumstances, the copyright of the original work was enjoyed by the copyright owner, including the author, the publishing house, the media, etc. Therefore, if a doujinshi work is based on the original work, the original author may have the right to use the work for commercial purposes, including authorization to other organizations to do so. However, if the inspiration for the creation of a doujinshi work comes from the fictional elements of the original work rather than the core content of the original work such as the storyline, characters, etc., the original author may not have the right to use the work for commercial purposes. As for the copyright of doujinshi works, the copyright of the works was usually jointly owned by the creator and the copyright owner. Therefore, if a doujinshi work was inspired by the original work, the creator and the copyright owner could share the copyright of the work. However, if the inspiration for a doujinshi work came from the fictional elements of the original work rather than the storyline, characters, and other core content of the original work, the copyright of the work might belong to the creator or the copyright owner alone. The copyright of doujinshi works needed to be judged and dealt with according to the specific situation. When creating doujinshi works, it is recommended that creators communicate with copyright owners to ensure that their creations do not violate the copyright of the original works. At the same time, they should also pay attention to compliance with relevant laws and regulations to avoid copyright abuses.

Doujinshi novels could be signed, but the specific copyright issues needed to be judged according to the specific circumstances of the work. Under normal circumstances, doujin novels were a type of adaptation or re-creation. The copyright still belonged to the author. Therefore, the author had to decide whether to adapt or re-create the work into other forms, including publishing, adapting it into movies, TV series, comics, etc., and had to abide by relevant copyright laws and regulations. When creating doujinshi novels, authors had to pay attention to protecting their copyrights to avoid unnecessary losses. In addition, if the work was cited or used by other authors or copyright owners, the author would have to pay the corresponding copyright fees.
