Can't say this was unexpected, when you make games like DOA Xtreme Volleyball. Calipha would not be pleased. Still, WTF indeed.
Itagaki (DOA creator) arrested for sexual harrasment

I'm thoroughly shocked.

I'm thoroughly shocked.
Ditto. (sarcasm)
What really bothers me is Jack Thompson's retarded as trying to use this as evidence for videogames being bad. That idiot's gonna have a field day with this.

The guy should be locked up for making such a crap game period.
-
I wonder if this is gonna affect the Ninja Gaiden games, I enjoy those games and DOA(to a much lesser extent). I don't touch those other games Itagaki makes.

If it was anyone else I believe I'd be suprised.
-
Why? Cause he made games focusing on females with bouncing anatomy? Why the fuck is everyone so shallow?
I personally am surprised and the only way I wont be surprised is if the woman was a spurred lover and shes trying to get back at him.

Doa 1-3

How can anyone be NOT suprised by this turn of events? All the clues are there. With all the overanalyzing of One Piece, people find it difficult to believe this could happen to Itagaki?
Check the post above mine, there are a few clues right there.

Good for her. And fuck Tecmo for not taking her seriously. Japanese male bosses can World Class Fuckers and sexual harassment is something that is VERY freaking real in Japan.
Not like it is in America, "Oh, You're looking cheerful today." BAM!!!
-
I think the girl was quite dumb. If she was smart, She should've asked for money than she did (I would have).
This was a foregone conclusion if I've ever seen one. Itagaki has reached a level of perverssion comparable to Sanji and Jiraiya combined.

What the hell are you talking about

Just look at the guy. He only lacks Street Fighter 3 Q's long coat to look like your typical pervert stereotype.
-
We're ALL shocked that the creator of DOA is allegedly a pervert.
It would be funny if he lost in court and his punishment was to make DOA: Extreme Workplace Equality, where the girls dress modestly and climb the business ladder.
-
I used to love DOA hentai. Take a look at my avatar. It's Helena naked from a hentai manga clip. Weee!!
BTW: Is that Itagaki on the picture? He looks like a maniac!@! hawahwahwahwahaw I can't stop laughing!!
-
So your avatar is topless! I frickin knew it! XD
-
D best DOA hentai with Helena on it I've ever had. Trust me man. It's a collectors edition.
-
I can't find the interview he did with EGM (or at least I think it was EGM) but he said that he considers the girls of DOA to be his daughters.
Doesn't really contribute but kinda sheds light on the crazy guy Itagaki.
-
Hmmm, why am I not surprised. XD
-
He does, he loves "his" girls and he got really upset when nude hacks came out of them and gets irritated when hes asked to put nude hacks into the DOA games.
Last year on G4 during one of their shows he said the following line: "From looking at them I can see why someone would want to undress them, but if you really want to then you have a problem." The "you have a problem" part is the part I can't remember, but thats basicly what he said, basicly saying whoever does is a loser.

How is that any different/worse than Oda's view on his own characters?
-
Yeah, characters I've created I feel are my children as well. Its just a connection between creator and his or her creations.
-
From his interviews and stuff he's a pretty cool guy and he does love his characters.
Just because you make games with girls in cool outfits doesen't make youa pervert.
I'm gay and I love DOA. The girls in it are beautiful and have some really cool outfits.
I'm looking foward to DOAX2!Honestly he might have just been in a relationship(having an affiar) with the girl and she got pissed, or maybe she decided she wanted some money.
A lot of sexual harrasment cases (male or female) are because one party got angry, money, or because they felt "dirty" after doing stuff they were enjoying at the time.Although… it's very interesting seeing people auto hound him like hungry kids in a candy shop.
-
Well, loving your characters like kids is one things, but expecting this guy to be a perv is another.
And I doubt the case is like that. Like Greg said, sexual harassment in Japan is much more of a real thing than it is over here.
-
Maybe it was a frame up or something. I just realized after reading the "loving daughter anime characters of DOA part" was too touchy…Nevertheless
Long live DOA HENTAI!! LONG LIVE HELENA!! -
If Itagaki ever finds you hes gonna kick your ass.
-
"BOOOOOOOOOOOO" That's what I've got to say. for shame.
give me a list of his games so I can boycot them all!
Greg, thank you for your wisdom. We need someone with some factual points in here. Good to know there are guys that treat sexual harrasment serios out there. Thanks buddy.
-
Wow…talk about naiveness, you're too proud of being a female, c.u.
Don't overreact.
-
Now don't u wish u were Helena from DOA. I'd love to see Itagaki's daughter soon. I hope she looks a lot like Helena.
-
I demand to see all of that Helena pic you have as your avatar!
-
Don't you wan't to see the entire manga of it? Wan't me to PM you?
-
Even tho I'm not a DOA fan (never played any of the DOAs), sure.
