Occasionally checking the GoFundMe comments, and I'm seeing a lot of people posting their pictures meeting and hugging Vic, like it's really sweet. Then I saw this.

Oh, it's apt. People have been straight up comparing Monica to the bitch from Shield Hero. She even looks like her.

The timing of all this is magical. It started even earlier with the accusation against Sevakis, literally days after ANN pilloried Shield Hero for having the audacity to introduce false sexual assault allegation as a plot device. Naturally, THAT allegation was sweeped under the carpet.

No, FUNimation and Otter Media split. Sony acquired 95% of FUNimation in 2017, retaining Gen Fukunaga as Chief Exec with his 5% minority sharehold.

Which means they can shit-can Fukunaga if they deem his management too exceptional. A minority holding means you're expendable. Even if you're the founder. Just ask Steve Jobs.

I just want to ask this one question:

Is there any substantial, direct, and/or conclusive evidence that Vic Mignogna ever sexually harassed or sexually assaulted anyone in his entire life?

All I keep hearing and reading right now are a bunch of unevidenced claims generally made years after the supposed sexual misconducts happened.

Nope. Just vague testimonials.

1. There's no conclusive evidence Vic did anything wrong. The opposition is sticking by the "listen and believe" strategy. This is predicated on the idea that anytime anyone makes a vague complaint of sexual assault, we need to accept it as truth. The rallying cry from Vic's supporters is "innocent until proven guilty."

2. There's compelling evidence the opposition is involved in all sorts of fuckery, to varying degrees. We know pretty much 100% that Samatha Inoue-Harte faked a swatting and tried to blame Vic's fans. This is problematic because she was involved in the company investigation that led to his separation. The evidence against others isn't nearly as strong, but it's enough to make a lot of people suspicious. Plus, many of his former colleagues are chimping out in a way that reflects very badly on Funimation. This has included threats on Twitter and shit.

3. Vic is launching a legal counterattack to force some sort of non-autistic examination of all this, and Nick is helping raise funds for it. It's doing really well.

That's pretty much it in a nutshell.

Call me lazy, but I genuinely don't have the time to comb 50 pages for info: Does someone have a link or image with a concise summary of what has been said by whom in this mess? I'd like to know specifically about which VAs have spoken up for or against Vic to this point, and if any of them have recanted or doubled down (I know Sean Schemmel is a spineless faggot and Monica Rial is trying to pull back some, but the rest I am totally in the dark on.)

Meh. They fired Amy Pascal. And she was co-chairman of the same division that oversees Funimation (SPE).

Of course, she oversaw a division that was hemorrhaging money each year. Greenlit the goddamned Ghostbuster reboot for femitard reasons. Allowed company e-mails to be hacked by North Koreans. Caused the world to snicker when said e-mails revealed that she could barely compose a coherent sentence. And was finally accused of racism.

But still... they fired her.

Eventually.

Don't forget optioned Zoe Quinn's fictional story Crash Override, giving that useless cunt another six figures of free money for doing nothing.
