I'm not a lover of "Japanimation Culture" by any means, but I'm surprised that this guy's still being put through the wringer after the internet went crazy about it 2 years ago.
I'd like to give my own "Why?" theories on this:
- Vic was just too good at Funimation. He took everybody's jobs, and most of the company's funding, so they needed a way to get rid of him for good in order to save some funds they wanted to share amongst themselves.
- Seeing as how he's twice divorced now, he may be a real-life counterpart of those "Overly-dense Gentiles who get all of the Girls" in those mindless romance cartoons. Some of his more "sociopathic" lovers/stalkers got jealous, and decided to take the opportunity to drive him to the breaking point in order to make due a statement of "this is what happens when you reject our genuine love you heart-wrecking pig". But I'm probably going to be called an incel for that...
- As Vic himself put it: "There are two sides to every story". Maybe the plain truth is, he did "some" of the alleged things, but he feels legit guilt for it, and is trying to deny it as much as possible, because he knew it would destroy his life if it ever got out. I'm not saying he did it, but I'm also not saying that he didn't do it. A company doesn't just hate you overnight. He must've done something big to have an almost unanimous excuse by almost everybody in the company to be happy that they're rid of him. For all anyone can guess, it may have been an open secret they couldn't yet disclose because they'd be losing too much money when his work was at its peak.
- A bit of "All of the above".
But that's purely my take on it. I'm not trying my hardest to defend another well-meaning loser with life-wrecking allegations, I'm just trying to find the reason for what started it all.
I don't believe in Black and White. I only see all of the Grey in between.
