Journal Title: International Journal of Social Science And Human Research - Year 2024, Vol 7, Issue 08

Abstract

The increasing number of competitions centeredaround the fair use of Cosplay has prompted discussions over its legality in Indonesia. The renowned practice of Cosplay, which is widely embraced by many individuals, originates from Japan. Indonesia has legislation pertaining to Law Number 28 of 2014, which specifically addresses matters related to copyright. Japan's legislation pertaining to Fair Use is included under the Copyright Law. This study will compare the use of fair use in cosplay, specifically examining the Copyright Law of Indonesia and Japan. There is no more clarification provided about the protection of fair use in cosplay when comparing the two countries. However, the two nations have commonalities in which actions are not considered offensive as long as they do not result in any benefits. Conversely, if same actions do lead to benefits, they will be considered offensive
