The producer of Shinkai Makoto's breakout hit Kimi no Na wa (also known in the West as Your Name.) has been arrested a second time for the charge of giving cash to a 15-year-old minor in order to engage in lewd actions without consent.
Producer Itou Kouichirou, who is 52 years old, was discovered in late November last year to have solicited the girl with money via social media, performing obscene acts with the then-minor for a sum of 20 thousand yen.
According to police sources, the producer had been looking for compensated dating targets on social media and got to know the girl in question in 2022.
Itou's first arrest in February was due to the producer sending nudes to female high schoolers and suspicions that he engaged in the purchase of child pornography.
