In July 2008, Youka Nitta traced a magazine ad and used the drawing as the cover for chapter 49 of "Haru wo Daiteita", as a result the series was pulled from the next issue of BeXBoy Gold, Nitta declined to attend Yaoi-Con, and Libre removed mentions of her and her work from their website, Nitta saying that she will quit manga work. The ad company who created the ad that was traced released a statement saying that they consider Nitta's tracing of their ad to be "a tribute".
