Personally, I always felt he was going to be replaced regardless, mainly because Vic would be occupied by the legal production and that’s gonna take months, if not years, to reach a conclusion. As for #KickVic, I think that Josh might be at RTX or he’ll be on the RT podcast to talk about being hired.
As for how it relates to Qrow, I’d say that the thing they have to be worried about is if Qrow dies in this coming volume. Then they might have to prove that Qrow dying and Vic being fired are completely unrelated events. That being said, some people I talk RWBY with on Discord say that Qrow’s character has pretty much run its course and he’s bound to be killed off soon.
As for Josh himself, no clue if he benefitted from collusion or his politics or whatever. That may only come to light if somebody leaks something.

I remember seeing a youtube vid where Sean Schemmel, IIRC, said he was in the booth recording a hentai where they wanted him to use Goku's voice in a sex scene, and he was already nervous, and the pressure and awkwardness got too much for him and he stormed out before recording any lines. This would have been toward the beginning of his career. I was surprised he even admitted this.
I know he has turned put to be an autistic soy filled bitch, but I can empathize with him in that scenario. Imagine being the voice of a legendary, influential anime character and being in a booth about to record that same voice for a hentai because the producers find it amusing.

Might be since he seems to be on friendly terms with three specific named parties in Vic's suit.
Edit: Yeah, he probably has taken sides. He's just very quiet about it. I can't stop to try and figure out what Soye post he was responding to back in early February here.

At least as of this moment he hasn't actually given an opinion in public so credit to him he's not butting into a situation he doesn't belong in
I agree with this sentiment. Qrow has basically been waving deathflags left and right for the last 2 volumes and realistically he SHOULD be killed off come Volume 7 since the logical next step in progression for Ruby and Yang is to lose somebody they are actually closely attached to and got to know properly. Pyrrha didn't fill that role for either of them and Penny can be rebuilt. Qrow is literally the only option.

Not just that, RT basically threw him under the bus and refused to work with him again. It's their legal right to do so, At-Will and so on.

TCPA Motion has been filed. It's over according to law twitter. Vic has lost the lawsuit again and was hauled off to jail as a sex offender. Nick got fired by his boss at Rekeita law.

That's got to be at least, what... 7, maybe 9 times the lawsuit has been declared over by law twitter?

ROFL. Funimation filed. It may get them out. Maybe. But unlikely. But they will pull that trigger before settling. We always knew that.

It means what we said it would mean about a dozen times in this thread and what Nick said it would mean.

I hope FUNi isn't allowed a TCPA, doesn't settle, and goes full cartoon villain. I want this to truly be a battle of good vs evil

It means we are totally done for. Vic will be buried six feet under and they'll crucify Nick and Ty to the gravestone. Kiwi users will forever be blacklisted from the internet and from now on, all legal activity will be handled in the court of Twitter

Just to add to this, Vic also had a bit role in Lucky Star, playing Keroro (this was before Funi cast Todd Haberkorn in the role).

Oh no, who could have fired Nick Rekeita from Rekeita Law? Was it the defense lawer, Nick Rekeita, the marketing executive, Nick Rekeita, or the person who handles the filings and paperwork, Nick Rekeita? Perhaps they brought it all the way to the top, to Nick Rekeita, and he handled the firing. I have to wonder what the founder the firm is named after, Nick Rekeita, thinks about it.

So the person found the Jelly Bean story useful? And this was fans that were in the investigation

I've heard Nick Rekeita and Nick Rekeita have been on pretty bad terms ever since Rekeita has apparently slept with Rekeita's wife, so this is probably the excuse Rekeita's been looking for to fire Rekeita tbh.
