Meanwhile, Rial's fiance sent a threatening tweet to Vic, essentially demanding that he "command" his supporters to back down, and then put his own Twitter on lockdown.

So, in conclusion, we have a faked SWATing by a Funimation voice actor, with intent to cause damage to Vic.

#SackSamantha?

This is getting surreal.

"We will be forced to take you to court."

Do it, faggot. Then you'll have to be forced to verify everything.

Makes me wish they'd stream the court case if Vic were to ever sue for slander. On a side note, it breaks my heart Tsuyu's dub voice is throwing Vic under the bus. To be honest its ironic Mineta's dub voice hasn't said a word of this that I know of.
 
I'm sitting here astounded over the thing with Samantha.

It's been said that she has mental health problems, but I can't confirm the voracity of that.

I can't imagine Funimation could ever employ her again after this.

Also, as an old man, I gotta ask: Do Chocobo's even talk? In my day, they went "wark wark!" Clearly this woman is an exceptional VA if that's the role she's best known for.
 
Man. I am really starting to feel bad for lifelong Dragonball fans who loved the English dub. I'd be pretty crushed if this were going down with a cast that I really liked, tbh.

That said, here is the extent of my enjoyment when it comes to the English dub:



The memes shall forever be dank. Especially now, considering how exceptional these voice actors have turned out to be.
 
All right, did any of us suspect this was going to blow up into anything as hilarious as this?

Between this nonsense, the riotous laughter from Jim's stream this morning, and the ups-and-downs of today's Killstream, this has been an emotionally exhausting day on the internet. And it's only Monday.

I think I might have to quit this freaking site, at least for a little while. This drama shit is taking up so much time and wearing me out.

No.

I never, in my wildest dreams, thought this was going to involve such an over the top and verifiable gay op by a Fumimation VA.

I mean, there's a chance that the accusations by Rial and Marchi are gay ops, but there's gay ops... and then there's GAY OPS. I hate to repeat myself, but this has now gone into the realm of the surreal.

I echo the sentiment that this thread needs to be featured.

I liked the English dub of DBZ as a kid but now don't have the patience for that pacing. Furthermore, the knowledge that they tried to make Goku more of a straight hero for western audiences doesn't sit well with me. Thank god Kai came out so I can rewatch the series if I see fit.

Speaking of English DBZ memes:

This was the character in Final Fantasy: Unlimited.

I've never watched it so I can't tell you diddly about this character, but that design alone makes me think this Chocobo's a 'tard.

She also apparently founded an animation studio called Saiko Studios, but I can't find shit about it. Found an audio studio from New Zealand by that name, but that doesn't sound right.

Yeah, I know what a Chocobo is. It's basically the iconic "mount" from the Final Fantasy series.

It's just that, when I was a kid, they went "wark wark!" I pretty much think FF went downhill after VI, so what the hell do I know. It would just be funny if this bitch is best known for making stupid animal noises.

Looking at her resume, she's a VA, but she really hasn't done that much relative to the rest of them. It all appears to be old shit and minor roles too.

I'm curious if they already know she's nucking futs, and they're just not giving her roles anymore.

I was anticipating yet another boring, autistic foogate shitstorm.

Instead, we have the new twist of a "fake SWATting." Who the fuck even thinks to do that?

That's a fake fake emergency. Imagine being the first person stupid enough to be arrested for such a stunt.

She was never that prolific nor popular, so who knows what she does on the side. IMDB mentions she's the heir to a Buddhist shrine called the Josenji Temple in Japan (only famous because of the nearby Taya Cavern) as she's the sole living relative left, so that's probably her future at this point.

I think she could only be arrested for it if she reported it (falsely) to police. Same reason "Jackie" never got popped for the UVA thing. All we know now is that she ran a gay op on the Internet.

However, depending on how things play out, she could be added to Vic's ever growing list. It also doesn't reflect well on Funimation either.

She's probably irrelevant in the grand scheme of things. The funniest part is how Schemmel fucking fell for it, and sperged out. This is almost assuredly why he put his Twitter on "siege mode."

I can't find it offhand but I remember a case of someone being arrested after they falsely accused someone of rape to a friend and then the friend went to the police. I forget the details. She might have then lied during the investigation too.
 
Honestly, at this point, the sky's the limit...

We could see a filthy Schemmel, cosplaying as Goku, under a freeway overpass... offering to suck people's dicks for a 10 spot.

Could be. I mean, the main points here are that:

1. She's a liar.
2. She lied to cause damage to Vic and his fans.
3. The lie was boosted by a prominent Funi VA with a blue check mark.
4. Everybody is already suspicious when it comes to believing these fucking people anyways. "Listen and believe" is starting to cause issues for them already. And that's BEFORE we've formally gone into litigation.
 
Sorry for the double post, but...

It gets even better!

Marzgurl noted on the 17th, when asked how we can be sure Funimation did a non-bias investigation, that she read something from somebody involved in the internal investigation the company allegedly did. The investigation with the result all these idiots are taking at face value and we have no right to question.

That somebody? Why, it's Samatha. The same person that did the fake SWATing.

Here's an archive of the FB post she links in that Twitter exchange (the FB itself has been purged, but pretty well archived): http://archive.li/VgCf0

Naturally, MarzGurl ain't happy now:
