I have been noticing several interesting titles on Scribblehub which seemed to be associated with well-recognized, novels, animes, and etc.
I do understand that some people are not really original in their worldbuilding, but like to expand more on the given story's universe.
I do know that there are people who have been sued for using characters with the same names, roles, worldbuilding, and etc. because of fanbase and authors and etc. yadayada stuffs.
But what I don't really get is why do those authors or creators don't really bother to put the label "Fanfiction" on their stories (that really does look like Fanfiction works) if their stories already has direct references to the original source story with same characters, power, settings, elements, and sometimes themes.
Won't this cause the hosting site and the creators of said "stories" get into actual conflicts with the original authors/creators and their publishers, when those (looked like Fanfiction work) stories get out on the public media?
Isn't that like really risky or are those stories exceptional because they have been sorta recognized as Classics that can be made into retellings?
Examples of original works used for stories not identified as "Fanfictions" : Harry Potter, One-Punch Man, Naruto, Pokemon, etc.
