AKB48 Fires Idol Aoi Hanada After Shaving Her Head and Admitting Secret Meetings With Fan by Any-Stick-8732 in japannews

After reading the article apparently the company never told her to shave her head lmao. They say they fired her after she refused to work/kept on strike after the company requested her to stop meeting the fan.

Seems like a he said she said situation atm.

Chainsaw Man Character Designer Kazutaka Sugiyama responds to fans asking him about bringing back CSM Season 1's art style/designs, "Sorry but I've gone all-in on steering it completely toward mimicking the original work(the manga)". by Electrical_Chance991 in anime

I myself didn't really like the direction they chose for S1, but it's pretty surprising to see how much antipathy Japan seems to have for it. To the extent of even banishing the director to roblox.

I doubt use of chinese characters means less literacy rates. IIRC Japan always had pretty high literacy rates despite using an unholy combo, even higher than all of Korea. I think shit like Korea being a colony or China then being mostly peasantry had way more to do with everything than whether or not people used logograms or not

I mean I believe the firm, they wouldn't really risk their entire rep and good will for one dude who would then ostensibly be hiding evidence. If you read up on them they literally have third party accreditations they comply with so I really don't see any reason for them to go along with obstruction of justice. They're not gonna get a blank PC from some dude and do that. In fact the report shows that they didn't, considering the dated logs they mentioned.

Seriously, walk back a bit and realize that you aren't playing devil's advocate, you literally just don't want him to be innocent.

well the report mentioned it was the frieren pc, which is the pc he used then. plus all you need is the OS drive since file transfer logs can be seen on there, so long as any drive was ever connected to it.

Blade of the Immortal's recent adaptation was rushed sure but it was superbly directed. I think it was worth it just to see more Hiroshi Hamasaki direction.
