The producers of Kemono Friends’ second season have caused some controversy by asking seiyuu for their three sizes on their audition application form.
The producers of the second season of Kemono Friends have begun recruiting new seiyuu and are allowing internet users to fill out an application form for auditions. They have caused some consternation, however, by demanding to know applicants’ bust, waist and hip sizes.
Perhaps more startlingly, although the questions about the applicants’ three sizes are mandatory, the questions about professional experience and academic achievements are optional, suggesting a rather interesting set of priorities.
The producers can of course easily defend their recruitment criteria by pointing out that successful applicants will also have to do some idol work, meaning that their appearance is relevant to their employability – nobody would want to look at or even visualize a bunch of ugly seiyuu.
Remaining fans of the series may well hope that the usual suspects in the west do not pick up on it: as one Twitter user pointed out: “since this is Japan, it’s not a big problem, but I think it would be a massive issue overseas” – many would of course be shocked to think that a blue-haired landwhale covered in tattoos could possibly be judged on anything but the quality of her voice.
no tatsuki, no tanoshii!!!
Bend the knee, wear nike.
no Trump, no great!!!
go learn some ABC, retard
“one Twitter user pointed out: “since this is Japan, it’s not a big problem, but I think it would be a massive issue overseas”’
Who cares about some gaijin thinks? I don’t support the S2 without Tatsuki but the truth that japaneses doesn’t care about our voices.
western news has shamed japan developers into changing things a few times
We westerners can go f♥♥k ourselves sometimes, on individual level tho, the complainers wont support anything about what they are complaining about anyway, i wish ppl would ignore them on a business level.
We won the war. Dont forget that you sneaky little squinty eyed jap… The fact we let you do anything on your own is generosity.
L-Let’s not mention the Korean war. I mean, yeah! They won the Gulf War too.. that made a terrorist group later on.. f♥♥k, think positive, positive.. Ah! You won the war against helpless civilians! That’s positive, right?
keep sucking jew dicks
Japs had surrendered, only because their land forces (Kwantung Army) were defeated. Sorry, but you haven’t won anithing :/
What the f♥♥k kind of thinking was that
You truly are retarded. If one surrenders, then they admit defeat…
The only war, you won is one with native americans. Having lost the rest, fat retards.
Seeing SJWs try to roleplay as patriotic rednecks is so cringy
This should only be relevant if the girl is under 16.
proof that we need tatsuki more the ever.

>literally one of the skinniest nations on the planet short of third world countries
Uh-huh…
Body mass does not denote beauty, a lady can out weigh a whale and still have the most beautiful face.
[Not that I know one.]
It’s the proportion thing that is a bit off.
