Similar characters and magic treasure names in novels did not necessarily mean plagiarism. It depended on the degree of similarity and whether it was based on original creation. If the characters, magic treasure names, and other elements of the two novels were similar, but they were all based on the author's own imagination and creative ideas, and did not borrow or plagiarize other works, then it was not considered plagiarism. Of course, if the elements of the two novels were highly similar or even almost identical, then it might be considered plagiarism. In this case, it was necessary to analyze whether the reason for the similarity was borrowed or plagiarized from other works or whether it was based on original creation. If the similarity was high and there was plagiarism, then both novels might be regarded as plagiarized works by the copyright department and be punished accordingly.
