I just heard about this incident today, seriously how stupid are they!? and I like Takuma Terashima as a voice actor. Those who are involved should give a public apology

If I'm correct, I think Japanese employers are very strict when it comes to the reputations and/or credibility of a potential employee. In this case, the damage is very severe that some of those involved in this incident may quit voice-acting altogether.

Doesn't mean things will be better off for those involved. Parties on both side will be branded troublemakers and they might be hardpressed for works as potential employers will be too scared to employ them. That's how their society works, peace and harmony for all.

Afaik, Sugita didn't tweet or announce any of this, though supposedly he unfollowed Terashi after hearing this from Ichiki (though rumours most likely to be damage control states that Sugita never followed him in the first place). And Sugita seemingly giving Terashi the cold shoulder in his gaming show.

According to the wiki (yes, this incident has it's own wiki now), the problem came to light when Kikuchi (of Eufonius) was being an asshole towards Halko Momoi and that issue reached Yahoo! News, to which people started probing his Twitter and found a tweet that did not actually quote any names but hinted very strongly at the event in question. From there people started backtracking, piecing together all the hints and the truth came to light.
I would think so, although I have no knowledge of the law. IIRC (and this is just IIRC), the dickspamming came with messages asking her to well, you know, eat them, etc. Apparently according to /a/ they only sent less than 10 dicks to her. *shrugs* Last edited by Kakkou; 2012-09-01 at 07:20. |

^ It's because they know that they did not do it. /a/ actually has a group of users, especially those who have tripcodes on, which often spearhead things like that phallic incident with Kitamura Eri. Heck, many people even throw mountains of expletives upon discovering what happened to KitaEri.

Most people believed that Ichiki was in on the joke during the Kokoroco event, but after that tweet from Kikuichi, and the above-mentioned segment in Sugita's radio show, people figured out that it wasn't the case.

If possible, I wish this whole incident sweeps over with apologies and move on but this producer should be sacked. Although, I'm expecting he will probably make a clean getaway if he has some influences. I hate this group mentality going on around this business. It's like there are some of them are reverted back to pre-teen mentality.
It's also ridiculous that another seiyuu had to be involved just because she had a connection to the producer. I like anime but some people in this fandom are too childish to deal with. I don't know any hardcore otaku in Japan but sometimes they push things way too far. |

Btw, that rumour about KitaEri being Yamanaka's favorite...Which part of the internet did that come from? An acquaintance of mine said the folks responsible at 4ch probably couldn't differentiate Kitamura and Kanemoto's name. Was it all gaijins mistaking Japanese names that got our KitaEri to suffer ?
So it was like 2ch quoting 4ch who quoted 2ch...... I'm having a headache.

The implication of gaijins couldn't make the difference between "Kitamura" and "Kanemoto" is that their original target was probably Kanemoto, who's indeed involved in the incident (not saying I'll support them if they went and terrorize her instead). And Kanemoto being relatively new, which is probably where the rumour about anyone being Yamanaka's favorite came about. So, if the rumour was originally from 4ch, probably it should've been Kanemoto being Yamanaka's favorite, but since gaijins couldn't tell the difference, they ended up targetting KitaEri instead. Sad, isn't it?
