Whatever the truth is, the whole situation has been handled so poorly on all fronts. By the VA's threatening to call homeland security on people asking questions, to the fans attacking VA's, and yes, most likely to Vic's own terrible behavior. This could have and should have most likely been handled more privately than it has been. I'm all for shaming sickos for awful behavior but in this case, it was like setting off a nuke to their audience because OF COURSE people would want the truth when someone they idolize is facing such accusations and OF COURSE they want answers when actions are taken without any proof being presented to them. That's a natural reaction, but they have to remember that those answers don't have to be given to them. That's why this should have been handled more in-house and privately rather than with voice actors arguing with twitter. The moment it turned into that, the moment Twitter was weaponized on both fronts in both support and against Vic, was the moment people felt they were owed answers that usually aren't given to the public. It became their fight too when the accusers engaged with them so openly about the accusations. This all should have been handled within the company, by the police, and without Twitter/Youtube/and the fandoms chomping at the bit for answers. It should have all been handled and then hear about the aftermath publicly with recasting and whatnot. Everyone dropped the ball and because of that, this has turned into an absolute mess. Personally, as much as I liked Vic, I'm leaning toward the accusers because I question why they would make those stories up. But, we haven't been given and probably won't ever be shown any of the evidence the companies like Funimation used in their investigation so it's all up to beliefs. If this does turn out to be some sort of push because of personal feelings toward Vic, then that will be a whole other can of worms.

RE: Attack on Titan: Why Genocide Is Sometimes Kind of Okay
I'm really hoping they don't just have Uprising Arc be season 3. That would be meh. But seeing the Return to Shiganshina animated would be amazingggg. Would make for a much better end to that season than Uprising. You could end it on them seeing what's in the basement or going to the sea…either way...it would make for a great ending of another season.

RE: Attack on Titan: Why Genocide Is Sometimes Kind of Okay
My predictions for season 2: (SPOILER) is the Colossal. (SPOILER) is the Armored. Can't wait. Though…I hope the reveal is a bit more dramatic than the background reveal in the manga.

RE: Chapter 835: The Nation of Souls
That is precisely the reason why the chapter threads are sometimes unbearable to read…I just don't get the people who seem to be personally offended and outraged that Oda is spending more than one chapter in this forest. I found the forest plot very creative and entertaining so far and don't feel at all that it has been going on for too long.
Agreed people want to rush the hell out of things just to get to the next big fight…
