A Touhou otaku has been arrested for threatening to pour kerosene on a young woman who’s voice work in a doujin video apparently did not meet the standards and style he expected of Reimu-portrayal.
The 26-year-old Aichi prefecture NEET made a series of posts to 2ch in which he threatened by name a 22-year-old part-time seiyuu, saying he would “douse her in kerosene and watch her fry.”
His anger apparently stemmed from the amateur voice work she did for a MikuMiku Dance level CG video posted on NicoNico Douga.
In other posts he made he said she “has totally damaged the character” and “deserves divine retribution,” and seems to have been behind a one-man campaign to defame her and leak her personal information as widely as possible.
He admits the offence, and now faces charges of intimidation.
The case also seems to highlight 2ch’s smoothly operating conveyor belt running from otaku bedrooms to police cells – a post made late in the afternoon of the 14th saw him locked up and national news by the morning of the 16th.
NICE. Love seeing these idiots put to justice. Sounds like something 4chan would say and how SWEET it IS to see these ridiculous no-cocked one man armies put down!!
That seiyuu obviously used one of her bombs. She won’t get lucky the next time though.
I can understand being annoyed if a voice doesn’t suit a character, or just done poorly, but death threats? Leaking personal information so people can harass the voice actor?
No excuses, this psycho deserves to be locked up.
You guys need to start treating these creepy obsessive otakus the same way that Salem, Massachusetts treated “witches” in he 1600’s.

This video gets a cult following among fanatics of the Japanese gay porn. They filled comments in the video with dirty jokes, and began making many parody videos including sexual contents taken from gay porn videos.
Since then She become target for online mockeries, harassment, insult, persecution, bullying, mockery, & threat by these fanatics.
These gay fanatics are seen by others normal Japaneses as dirty scum although. They are seen as being worse than dirtiest western “/b/tards” in Japan.

I wish they stopped doing that in otomads,i mean it rarely sounds good especially the japanese gay porn one though some otomads with that gay porn are acceptable because it sounds okay but seriously it usually ruins the whole otomad vid for me when they show it and it doesn’t sound as good as anime or this doujin style vids pics voices,gachimuchi is in it’s own league and can be acceptable.
