Weeb Wars / AnimeGate / #KickVic / #IStandWithVic / #vickicksback - General Discussion Thread

So Viz are sheep too. Nice to know. Another one for the Pirate Bucket.

Here's lookin' at you, Sentai.
This caught my eye just now on the last few minutes of lunch. It might be worth keeping an eye on Viz, and by extension, maybe this guy should he go unprotected:


At this point, the entire anime industry will be pirated.
 
Look if Viz quietly fired Vic then thats them. At least they had the courtesy not to make it public. I remember in his depo Vic turned down roles due to depression.
And sometimes characters are voiced by different people in video games or spinoffs and such. I'm skeptical that Vic's outright blacklisted from Viz because of this, unless someone like Svetlana wants to confirm he is, or more prominent roles he voiced in get changed. What would cause some worry is if his replacement Kellen Goff is kickvic, which 1 person in the comments is saying he congratulated Monica and Jamie about the court decision.

Edit: Some sleuthing around, people are also saying this was dubbed by Bandai Namco, not Viz.

They replaced Vic with Funtime Freddy?

Darn. That's just harsh!
 
Well that blue haired basement dweller crawled out of the septic tank because someone dared ask a convention to bring Vic.

If A-Kon were my show, I'd invite him just because of this. I hope they don't kowtow to these chimp outs. If it's this way because someone asks nicely to bring a guest in, what happens when they actually have the next guest/volunteer/organization that falls into disfavor?
I’d love to know who/what she’s responding to in this comment. This bitch is insane.

Inb4 that landwhale and her sheep mass flag the person she was arguing with.

For a little more context, this guy is bascially a pro-censorship & localization guy. He just landed a job as a PR guy in Viz, eventhough he hates anime freedom.

Also, cherry on the cake is, he's a Zoe Quinn fan

Do you ever think there’ll come a time where, in order to escape these puritans, we’ll need to learn Japanese?

Kellen Goff got his break in funimation thanks to Colleen Clickenbeard, who Vic doesn't see as a friend but has tried to appear neutral.

Also Kellen Goff kind of sucks. He supposedly learned voice acting from many teachers and sounds awful.

Yes she is.

She was responding to Kurono's Tweet asking A-Kon to bring Vic. He shared it with me and is laughing about it. FWIW, the responses from others throwing it back in KV's face are ratioing them savagely.
 
Look who came to that landwhale's aid...
Guess I'll be keeping an eye on that thread.

EDIT

He did mention that, and that was where Kiwis started thinking he was on the knife’s edge.
That was talked about even before the depos.

No matter how hard of a time Vic had or how depressed he was, I have a hard time believing that he legitimately would have ever killed himself. Maybe that's what KV wanted, but I personally just don't feel like Vic was ever contemplating suicide.

He started taking depression medication in the January and February period.
He's also been in a panel talking about depression (same panel that ProZD sitting with Vic at).
They (his former colleagues) knew where to pick and pry at him,
