After publicly mocking K-ON! and defacing one of its cast, Yamakan has been the target of otaku death threats.
After plucking the head off of Ui, 2ch’s legion of creepy K-ON! fans was in uproar, with one fan going so far as to threaten the Haruhi producer with death: “I’ll cut off Yamakan’s head to punish him for the grievous crime of insulting K-ON!”
He was subsequently reported to police and faces probable arrest unless savvy enough to have employed an anonymous proxy.
As if this fracas were not enough, at the same event Yamakan apparently also went on to insult seiyuu Kana Hanazawa upon seeing her video, saying “her face is huge” amongst other unfriendly remarks.
With the atmosphere at the event thickening fast he then proceeded to tangle with the CEO of Good Smile Company, who light-heartedly remarked “that was an amusing teen movie” – Yamakan ignored him completely and then left the event.
Many have remarked that it appears Yamakan’s real talent is not for anime direction but instead for annoying people.

Hah, I find it funny... People actually report others to the authorities because of Anonymous threats, if it worked like that on 4chan I'd pity the police.
Don't worry, he'll be fine unless he makes a joke about Muhammad.
Well, Muhammad's guys did behead a guy tv though not for ridiculing Muhammad and Yamakan both ridiculed and beheads Ui on tv.
Especially since they say stuff like this all the fucking time on the chans, or even all boards.
Not like it was an angry remark only made in relation to what he dd you Ui...
2ch = all bark and no bite.
I second that...
Even if they bite, they still look stupid...
That's some K-ON fans hey why don't you pluck the head of a Haruhi Chibi figure in Youtube then it's EVEN no more Fights? But beware of Haruhi Fans!
That would be a mistake. Haruhi is a god, after all; doing that would likely incur her wrath and she would either destroy the universe or remove K-On! from existance at the very least.
No friend, it will only add fuel to this already scorching fire...
I love both shows and I don't want them to rend each others guts just because of someone's stupid behavior...
Yamakan should apologize and stop acting like a child with a bad case of ADHD...
2ch should apologize and stop being a bunch of butthurt faggots...
Yamakan has finally gotten some respect from me after his obvious E8 publicity stunt was obvious. Haruhi at least has some redeemable value. K-on does not.
Are we all sure their death comments aren't just for the joke? I know a some friends does, but I'm not sure about 2ch.
Haruhi and Lucky Star are better than K-ON anyway, so how can anyone be mad at Yamakan?
We've already had one troll, we don't need a second. Please go away.
that's not trolling... it's called telling the truth
@Anonymous 18:42
No, that's called a different opinion.
I'm not saying this because I think K-On! is better than Haruhi. In fact, I prefer Haruhi, but that's my opinion (I'm not commenting on Lucky Star, though).

Go Go Yamakan!
He sure got the balls to make fun of K-on, them fans are a bit like muslim extremists when you insult or mock their beliefs.
I was thinking the same thing. I wonder how long before someone makes a Ui bombhammed
Successful troll was successful.
He reached his goal, maybe more than he intended.
I was thinking exactly the same.
Ok then make a customized Yamakan Figure and instead of beheading it how about a little science experiment like these guys doing on a Twilight Figure:

Yamakan is my new hero, watching pissed off otaku is so entertaining.
K-On otaku use rage.
It's not very effective.
he is a disciple of the card crusher!
Next step for Otakus clearly is Jihadism. Makes so much sense! >_>..
Xenophobia + Jihadism...
I could care less about 2chn's fanaticism,
BUT YOU DON'T TALK SHIT ABOUT HANAZAWA KANA!
hear hear!
@Yoshi-kun
I wholeheartedly agree, friend...
In my previous post on the first article, I really wished it was all just a big misunderstanding and nothing more than just plain-old goofing around...
I was afraid it would escalate to this...
This will not end well due to this childish behavior on Yamakan's part...
No worries, Anri would keep him in mind that it pays to be rude.
Ok.... Now he just crossed the line...
I approve of him trolling anything KyoAni related but this...
How did Kana Hanazawa get involved in his fcked up parade?
I knew he was so much of a dick but this is just.... What the shit? Anyway I guess he's just attention whoring even more so he can get Studio Ordet more attention.
So THAT's what Kusano's seiyuu looks like. Not bad. Nice looks added to a good voice equals to winrar for seiyuu otaku and people who like pretty faces (with me falling in the latter).
Obviously Yamakan is just trolling, if he couldn't stand Kana Hanazawa, he wouldn't have cast her in so many shows he directed (Kannagi and BRS)...
Yamakan is surely being a jerk this time even setting his eyes on Kana Hanazawa...
Dude definitely needs to grow up and get over with the KyoAni issue.
hate the person not the show. not especially a show that introduced to the world the awesomeness that is nagato yuki.
I totally agree. kana chan was a gravure idol before becoming a seiyuu in 2003. she looks fine just the way she is.
I knew this is inevitable...

Let's hope it won't end in him paying with a video of him getting beheaded by turban-wearing otakus somewhere in the back-alleys of Akihabara while the K-ON! OP theme from the first season is blasting in the background...
Oh dear, that'd spell the end of the world!
Successful troll.
indeed...
Ui-chan akbar?
I just love J-dramas!!
Yamakan is indeed annoying. He needs to lock himself in his room for a month and choreograph more anime dances.
Only then will he be redeemed.
jealous of how successful kyo ani is with him?
lolhemad?
without*
Troll be Troll even in RL
that does not look like Kana Hanazawa...
Obvious troll is obvious.
NOBODY BEHEADS MY FAVORITE TOYS ON MY WATCH
TO THE OTAKUMOBILE
>>Runs out of room.
otaku: Mom, I need to borrow the minivan!
mom: Not now honey, it's time for dinner!
otaku: Goddammit woman! I must save the internet!
epic
I bet his head won't attach back on his so easily after they behead him! How dare he mock Ui!
wondering who is trolling who now?
