you can't leave until your contact is expired. and he won't be leaving the VA any time soon. Fairy Tail will last her many years. I'm pretty sure, you will see her in other anime soon too. |

You didn't watch Macross, did you?? She's best known as the voice of Lynn Minmei. She even reprised her role for the ADV uncut dub of Macross 20 years after her Japanese role. You can read about her here. |

The funny thing is she is only popular because of her role in Haruhi before that people really had no idea
I wonder what the real story is ... |

There are a few that haven't worked much lately and I suspect have been blacklisted due to similar slipups in their personal lives. I'm almost certain Norio Imamura has been, for example. |

I wouldn't doubt it. Japanese anime survives by the wallets of its otaku. Getting on their bad side (whether right or wrong) is bad for business. Same happens here, look at Pee Wee Herman.

How Pee Wee Herman was criucified for doing something every hypocrite guy does was a shame. Not a great example at all.
The point is these female and somtimes male Japanese media personalities are fired and punished for reasons that should be illegal in a truly free, equitable society.

How exactly can she "cheat" on anyone? She's not married, and if your other scurrilous rumor is accepted as true, she's not a reliable lover either. I fail to see how any man can imagine her cheating on them. She's twenty-three years old! She gets to be adult. |

There is no such thing as a truly free and equitable society. In order to have such a society, everyone would have to be practically the same mentally. Nice hive mind. While it may be unfair to the actresses and actors, it does make good business sense. If the actors and actresses private and public lives decrease the value of a property, why would any studio want them. Its called biting the hand that feeds you. Think you are being unfair to Japan too, these things happen in the U.S. to some degree, and is quite common around the rest of the world. Charlie Sheen and the Afflack duck voice guy are recent examples. |

in the otaku's mind she is hauri or konata and seeing there beloved characters defiled like that makes them mad. They have it in there head they are allowed to only be touched by them and no one else etc etc etc. I can keep this on but you see where I am going with this.. |

You don't have to be married to cheat. If you're in an exclusive relationship and you start dating other people on the side, that's cheating (in marriage, it's called an affair). OTOH, if two people are just seeing each other casually, it's different.
That's only with regard to her otaku-oriented activity, for which they don't have many stringent rules. Hirano's agency focuses on mainstream idol/celebrity stuff, and that's where they've been trying to take her (Hirano's wish, although the plan has backfired so far). Her commentary was supposed to elevate her popularity with teenage girls. However, the intended effect didn't happen. |

The term is earlier than that too. I remember playing in a b-ball league, definitely before 1999, when my teammates and I were thinking, "We beat all the scrubs, but we can't beat the elite teams - what does that make us?" Then there was the Scrubs TV series (2001-2010).
In Japan, you don't employ the agency - the agency employs you! |

It'll be interesting to see if she gets replaced in the role of Lucy Heartfilia in Fairy Tail if that series reaches a third season.

this isn't shocking at all. japanese media companies own the talent and tell them what they can and can't do. it's like they're dogs.
