* BestKnownForTheFanservice: Despite being considered among English-speaking communities as a Japanese equivalent of Website/DeviantArt, Pixiv has garnered a good amount of attention for the fact that unlike [=DeviantArt=], it permits users to post and distribute hardcore pornography (though it does have to conform to Japan's censorship policies, which some straight up disregarded).

* BestKnownForTheFanservice: Despite being considered among English-speaking communities as a Japanese equivalent of Website/DeviantArt, Platform/DeviantArt, Pixiv has garnered a good amount of attention for the fact that unlike [=DeviantArt=], it permits users to post and distribute hardcore pornography (though it does have to conform to Japan's censorship policies, which some straight up disregarded).



* FandomRivalry: Kind of, in terms of its fans and Website/DeviantArt's and normally about which is better. Lately, artists with banned artwork from [=DeviantArt=] will often move to Pixiv for more artistic freedom as well as not having to deal with underage users reporting artwork that they were not meant to see at all, something that has been cited as a major problem with [=DeviantArt=] censorship.

** Like any other art platform, the usage of A.I artwork isn't immune to this either, as artists who do A.I art are often being seen as uncreative, art thieves and unoriginal.

** Like any As with other art platform, the usage of A.I artwork isn't immune to this either, AI has become a battlefield that has started because Pixiv made a compromise that AI images can stay but will be labelled as artists who do A.I such. Some of the main points of contention include the ethics of using such apps, [[SturgeonsLaw the quality of the images]] and the oversaturation which makes searching for art are often being seen as uncreative, art thieves and unoriginal.more difficult.

* BrokenBase: A major one exists over the practice of sharing artwork found on Pixiv (e.g. posting them directly on social media rather than linking to the corresponding pages on Pixiv, using them as icons/avatars), especially without permission. Some folks, especially artists, view this as an act of disrespect for the artist unless the artist explicitly provides permission; indeed, many artists have an explicit "don't reproduce my artwork" warning on their profiles and some have [[WhyFandomCantHaveNiceThings outright resigned from publicly distributing their art because of users reposting their art without permission]], and the [[http://ofp.yu.to/ Online Fanarts Protection]] page exists to warn users against unauthorized redistribution of art. Some others, mostly those who don't produce art, see nothing wrong with the practice as long as the artist is credited, arguing that artists who don't want their art being spread beyond their control shouldn't be uploading it in the first place and point out that on some forms of social media, Pixiv links don't preview and therefore are worthless by themselves to use. ''Any'' sort of discussion on this topic between those with conflicting opinions goes nowhere at best and leads to insults at worst, with artists being seen as {{Attention Whore}}s for wanting their artwork credited and fans being seen as {{Ungrateful Bastard}}s.
