‘Love Live!’ Official Website: “Be Careful of Purchasing Unlicensed Merchandise”

The official Love Live! website on Saturday released an advisory informing the public to be careful of purchasing unlicensed Love Live! School Idol Project and Love Live! Sunshine!! merchandise. The staff is now doing what they can to track those who sell bootlegs of their official merchandise from events to online shops. Below contains the official statement in Japanese as well as the English translation.

『ラブライブ!』および『ラブライブ!サンシャイン!!』を応援して頂き、ありがとうございます。
警察による度重なる摘発にもかかわらず、残念ながら『ラブライブ!』『ラブライブ!サンシャイン!!』の著作権を侵害する商品がイベントや通販サイトを通じて販売・配布されたり、またはアミューズメント施設の景品とされる事例が後を絶ちません。
これからも、著作権侵害に対しては厳しく対処し、悪質な侵害については刑事告訴をも辞さない方針を継続していきます。
ファンの皆さまにおかれましては、これらの無許諾違法グッズをお手にとることのないよう、お願い致します。
今後も『ラブライブ!』および『ラブライブ!サンシャイン!!』の応援、よろしくお願い致します。

English Translation

Unfortunately, despite repeated police investigations, Love Live! & Love Live! Sunshine!! merchandise that infringes upon copyright continues to be sold at events and on mail-order sites, as well as arcade prizes.
We will continue to deal strictly with copyright infringement, and continue our policy to not ignore complaints concerning these malicious actions.
Please take care not to purchase these unlicensed illegal goods. Thank you for continued support of Love Live! and Love Live! Sunshine!!.

We highly encourage everyone to do their part and report any seller at would do such actions. After all, one of the reasons why Love Live! continues to grow as an idol franchise is because of the immense support from the fans that purchase their merchandise, attend their official events, and so on.

Remember a true fan always buys the original stuff.
