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.

Watched a little bit more fruits basket, but not much else.

Dune 2 was fine, I liked part one more but this one is still ok. A bit fast paced sometimes imo.

How do I explain to people that this is actually a severely emotional examination of grief, denial, what it means to be remembered and how to best confront your own mortality seriously how do I do that like go up to a friend all like "Hey man you should really check out 'If My Wife Became an Elementary School Student'"

Lol at the usual type of folks making superficial judgements and condemning something sight unseen without understanding it just so they can make sure everyone can see how much of a "correct opinion," they have. Get over yourselves.

Got it from here

It seems to be a repeat of the drama from a couple of years ago when they released Sumeru, an Egypt/Middle East/India inspired region, where 90% of the NPCs were light skinned. Lots of crying about colonizers and comparing her looks to those of a conquistador.

"In full"

Q: Why is this in the anime hole?

A: Because she's known for her anime voice-over.

/r/KotakuInAction reacts.

/r/SaltierThanKrayt reacts.

/r/Shantae reacts.

BTW, she's the voice of Marinette/Ladybug from Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir.

Unfortunately I didnt really watch anything this week, but Im gonna watch dune 2 on release so thats nice.
