Distinction from tracing tag in pixiv
In pixiv, the mainstream view is that reproduction and tracing are two different things.
The term tracing is used to describe a mere trace of an image, which is deemed problematic.
A reproduction is a drawing that resembles a model by observing it, like a sketch.
The tag is attached based on the definition of reproduction. Incidentally, there is no difference in terms of copyright.
