That Sabat told Monica that he'd support her and pull out, not expecting such a scenario to actually happen. When Vic did get brought back, Sabat shit bricks and hummed and hawed, deciding to kill the tour, but still attend KamehaCon.
Ok I phrased that poorly. That's what I meant by solidarity.

But I guess that means that the other hypothesis is that Sabat will drop KC completely and do Monica's thing instead.
 
This is just speculation on my part, but I almost get the feeling that we may be looking at a more hybrid scenario here. One that only tangentially involves Vic. Toei might have dropped the hammer on Sabat's "Prince of All Saiyan's" marketing, forcing KC to change to "Okratron Studio Tour" (or whatever the fuck Sabats stupid setup is called) triggering Sabat to throw a tantrum and take his ball and go home. That seems in character for all the players on the field.

Now if Toei is REALLY pissed about all the VA antics, I could imagine a Toei rep (they send plainclothes dweebs into cons looking for unlicensed merch) wandering over to get his Monica Rial signature... on his unlicensed gay porn Goku/Brolly dojinshi.

That.... that would actually be ingenious.

Man, we're all going to be intimately familiar with Morton's Forks and logical reasoning.

The first theory is that Sabat is making good on his threat to drop Kameha Con, or at least the tour.

The second is that Sabat, sympathetic to Rial making good on her threats, decided to follow suit and leave.

The last is that Toei threatened to sue the voice actors and Kameha Con and pressured them into cancelling the con.

I prefer the Toei angle here. It makes the most business sense.

Okay, I'm waiting for Nick to swing back to Sabat. He's drunk and angry.

I kind of hope that happens. Vic being invited back a month in advance is one thing. Sabat dropping out within 48 hours is whole different beast entirely.

...I was just on page 823 and when I went to the next one I ended up on 822 and there's nothing after. Weren't there 5-8 pages more just now?

There is a 4th one, @RodgerDodger brought up a good point, Toei cancels the "Prince of All Saiyans" name, Sabat gets Schemmel butthurt, cancels tour.

Things getting moved to Nick's thread.

Exactly.

This is the one that makes the most logical business sense. For everything we know about these people in play, the Morton's Fork here plays perfectly into how it would go going if Toei flexed a muscle.

All I know is its not because of the stupid "emergency recording session" because they could have moved the tour to Saturday or Sunday but no.
 
Dramas in dramas in dramas, i can only follow so many, has the DBZ fanbase always been like this or is this all coming to the surface from the Vic thing?

Tbh I don't remember it ever being like this. It could just be that over the past few years, more people started coming online and starting these circles. I never heard of any of these people until like last year some time. I initially watched geekdom's vids and found them entertaining. As time went by, I realized the guy was on twitter and that's when i was exposed to exactly what a pool of steaming toxic shit the anime community (DB Community especially) is.

From what i've seen, a majority of the drama that comes up in the community somehow involves him or one of the people he has been known to associate with and nearly all of them came from the kanzenshuu site, staff and/or forums. IMO, it just seems to me like people screaming for relevancy/attenton so they can make money on YouTube or some other platform.

Chris Sabat Studio Tour

Tbh I'm not really surprised he cancelled, and what a surprise, his cancellation actually falls within bounds of valid cancellation per his contract. Clean hands as always Iago. A few questions (Nick probably addresses them in his stream, but I can't catch it atm):
  • Sabat cancelled his studio tour, will he still be making an appearance at the con?
  • How badly does this affect Kameha Con's proceeds now that one of their main attractions has been cancelled? I mean I doubt they'd be taking a huge portion of these as it doesn't happen on their grounds, but I could be wrong
  • If the studio had a recording session scheduled for Friday, why didn't he just postpone the tour till Saturday?

Points 1 and 2: unknown

Point 3: Officially unknown, but it looks like a tantrum and virtue signalling.
The quote needs another second of time imo.

Better would be for Ty to pop up, the quote to appear, then as Ty dips back behind the wall the quote disappears.

Not to level criticism at something I can't do.
