Japan's more lax over this idiocy than places in the West. On-top of that, with how overboard Western fandoms and group get when it comes to instilling their own views and expectations onto JP professionals and groups when they're, yes I know, two different cultures has reached a point where most JP companies, creators, groups, etc. aren't gonna listen anyway. Why would you when all it does it blow things into cancel culture controversy? Even if something like this should be addressed.
Secondly, western fans boycotting anything will literally have no effect on anything. If you don't watch, you're not effecting anything. We have to torrent and pirate these shows to watch them as they air, it's not like Toei gets revenue from that. As for not buying products, we don't even make up that much of a sales percentage as JP consumers do. And even then, not buying anything only ends up damaging the success of the franchise internationally anyway. So there's no winner there.
I'm watching Revice for the characters, not the voice behind one of them. The best I can hope for is that Toei actually takes what backlash they do end up seeing to heart and swaps out VOs at some point. Easier than recasting an on-screen actor at least.
100% agree with your post.
Though I'm legit wondering where Japan draws the line for this serious cases.
I still have in mind Tsunenori Aoki case (Sengoku Ryoma in Gaim, Aguri in GARO) when he assaulted a woman while being drunk (actually. twice...) and it resulted in his career going down to near extinction in an instant.
Not saying he doesn't deserve it. But where do they draw the line.
EDIT : unrelated to Toku, but same kind of event.
Today an Olympic Games official (Kobayashi Kentaro) in japan was fired for a joke about the holocaust. and he made that joke in 1998.
Japan isn't really consistent I guess.
