You two have me curious but I fear for my sanity if I look.
one thing that i will criticize him for is that he can get overly defensive about his characters and his work and that can make him come off as a bit of an ass, but he's always seemed like a pretty stand up guy otherwise
I doubt they ever will until Broly appears in the next form of media. Which will probably be FighterZ.
Yeah, but a lot of VAs that work with them are against Vic, and Rawly Pickens (Voice Director for Dragon Ball Super) even made a tweet in support of the victims. Even if Funimation doesn't make a public statement I think it's pretty safe to say Funimation won't be working with him anymore.
Unfortunately I have friends who don't think anything short of footage of the act counts as evidence. And these are from my more rational friends I've had.
i imagine that's to far into dubbing to do anything about it unfortunately.
They say with security cameras everywhere he would HAVE to been caught at some point.
But remember, it's liberals that have no independent thought.
Was watching the Rohan episodes today and despite the solid voice acting it's still a bit weird knowing that its him. He probably won't get replaced though, unless people planned on financially supporting that decision
Legally mandatory oversized body cams worn conspicuously at all times, obviously. It almost sounds like something men in charge would force on women.
Yep.
Agreed. What makes Vic worse than the majority of other celebs and fan-surrounded icons (without even mentioning his crimes) is he recognises his fans don't see the real him, and baits them further with a friendlier face at every possible chance regardless - that's how you groom someone. He doesn't just engage with fans, say, over Twitter or an AMA, he invents and oversees his own fan-club, taking a very active part in steering his fans towards whatever mentality he sees fit under the banner of "if you were a real Vic fan, you'd see/think/act like this...". Even had nothing come out about his behaviour, the fact he so readily feeds this type of environment is cause for concern as someone abusing their power.
He has been challenged before, but until #MeToo, garnering support against even benign figures in the enteyyrtainment industry was a massive ask for these women. Add to that the people in the industry and con circuit who knew, it is dry telling of how rotting so many industries (from film, to music, to sports, to tech, to even fringe entertainment ones like VA and Conventions) are when they value quiet stability over protection of their customers and staff, all in the name of keeping the money coming in.
Everybody's got connections and nobody wants to burn any bridges, no matter how gross the toll keeper is.
