Sorry for reposting this comment but
Does anyone have any source for this info?

I'm not going to claim any of these are credible in any way, but there are a few articles like this one discussing the alleged arrest and tweets allegedly made by her representative:
https://www.sportskeeda.com/us/streamers/news-mimi-yanagi-controversy-explored-vtuber-reportedly-arrested-uk-possessing-drawings-anime-style-characters

There's also a few Reddit threads with some questioning whether she actually was arrested or if it's just a trick, citing things like criminal policies in the UK that don't add up with the situation such as the claims of her being let out on bail or still being allowed to post online (albeit SFW-only material):
https://www.reddit.com/r/kurosanji/comments/1t0d59p/british_vtuber_mimi_yanagi_arrested_for/
https://www.reddit.com/r/VirtualYoutubers/comments/1t0wtix/so_whats_the_deal_with_mimi_yanagi/
https://www.reddit.com/r/VirtualYoutubers/comments/1t1voxz/update_it_looks_like_the_arrest_of_mimi_yanagi/

Not going to go too deep into this rabbit hole to try and confirm anything and I know jack squat about British law anyway, but even if she wasn't actually arrested, it doesn't change the fact that laws with a wide reach like this are extremely dangerous.

So this is what the UK arrested her for? Man what shitty country

i like the like purposeful obviousness of coming to one of the 2 only posts under there character tag you can see right now through search, going to a sfw charater sheet and going "this is why?!? unfair!"
and defiantly not things like how they have multiple commissions towards PeachYP alone you can find here among many others.
but ye lets pretend this doesnt go any deeper and the UK is gonna be knocking on like houses of everyone with a Paimon poster on their walls or somthing.

how the hell shexyo is not blacklisted as AI generator person? So many other artists exposed shexyo for using AI and tracking other artists art (specially Cutesexyrobutts style and art). He is one of the most most known AI scammer with huge army of whiteknight with sunk cost fallacy issues that can't accept the fact they put money into scammer/faker all those years and now they defend him from any bad mouthing

No comment on their more current work, but they do have art from 2020 before AI art was a thing.

it still shouldn't be allowed to upload all the modern AI slop he is pumping for years already. Just put him on blacklist of artists that can't be uploaded here and done.
Just as Shibi said, the zipper is good example of "fuck it, AI made good picture, people will praise it, I will milk money via paywalls sites and I don't have to deal with drawing for real. Big W for me hehe. Who cares about some details that expose me, people will defend me anyway"

If danbooru mods/admins are making exception for Shexyo then just allow other AI "artists" to be also uploaded here despite they use AI. Stick to the rules or don't at all.
So the key to bypass the rule of danbooru is: draw for real at the beginning and then just go full AI mode. "guys guys I was real artist once, I'm still one of you trust, I just prefer to use AI now so I don't have to waste time on drawing like rest of you :) cool right? most of modern audience don't even give a fuck about errors, details, etc."

There is no such blacklist. You're probably thinking of banned artists, which is not for that purpose and was discontinued anyway.

Or you might be thinking of the "AI prompter. Do not upload." warnings in some artist entries. If their recent work is AI-generated or AI-assisted, we can put a warning in the artist entry about the more recent work, but there's no reason to forbid all work from an artist if they produced legitimate art in the past. The warnings aren't even an actual prohibition; they just let the uploader know that any works from that user have a high probability of being AI.

The main point is that our AI-generated policy is enforced on an image-by-image basis, not an artist-by-artist basis. We do not formally prohibit users from uploading from specific artists that use or have used AI. If this work really is AI, then yes, it should be deleted. But that doesn't mean we should delete the legitimate older art as well.

You just follow the hive mind, shexyo has never been proven a tracer, nor using ai. Get your own opinion.

Actual jumpscare while browsing saving Asuna pics. I have literally never seen anybody else draw her with this kind of expression before. It’s kind of surreal to see on top of just being really good expression work in general. It almost makes me wonder if we should create a very specific tag for expressions on the face of characters who typically do not make them.
