Corrections: Vic is still in appeals in court as the case is still ongoing. With some conflicting/confusing info, I messed that up slightly. My bad. The Kaguya-sama edit was by Aniplex, not Funimation I failed to mention that Vic is confirmed to have had a promiscuous quality even when engaged, so there's plenty of criticism to levy at him for that reason. Part of the Interspecies Reviewer section was misinformed as apparently the anime added more risque scenes than the manga, though I still feel their continued grip on the license and so on is bad, there was a slightly more adequate reason for them dropping it One of the sources I used for researching the Vic situation also apparently has been known for excluding information, so I apologize if that seemed especially one-sided. Thanks for continued feedback!

@@sonic23233 Funnily enough, Sean Schemmel did just that at one point. He actually told Vic that he hated him...... because of how open he is about his religion. (I believe it had something to do with Sean and his father when he was a kid. Like his father was really strict about their religion.. or something. Honestly, I can't recall the specifics... I may be wrong about that last detail, so don't quote me on that.) But regardless, it's still pretty absurd to not like someone for a reason like that. Vic did nothing to him. I'd say that _does_ make Sean better than those other shitheads though... even if only _slightly._ Since at least he was up-front about not liking him, rather than being friendly toward him for over a decade before hurling all kinds of bullshit at him online.

Another reason why Funimation is hated is because of Scott Freeman, who famously played Issei Hyoudou in High School DxD and England in Hetalia, and who was arrested back in 2014 for possession of CP.

That’s the whole point of independent contractor VAs like Monica and the rest of the Fuckimation crew have: freedom. Dare I say, too much freedom. You see, VAs can’t be held responsible for their actions on social media and irl. That’s because they don’t have obligations/ ties to said company. In Japan, as an individual, your work ethics are taken seriously in the VA industry. You are signed to a talent voice agency contract which means they can fire you at any given moment if anything bad were to happen. Anything you do in the industry as well as outside that is seen as controversial or problematic are seen as a violation of said contract. Which means you can be held responsible for the actions you reap.

The story: Sony Pictures Television bought a 95% stake in Funimation for 143 million USD. This was then approved in August 22nd 2017. On August 7th 2018, AT&T fully acquired Otter Media (Crunchyroll owner) this would then end Funimation and Crunchyroll’s partnership being announced on October 18th 2018; then on November 9th 2018 the contents with the merge were removed; thus creating a new let’s say… dubbing vs subbing war. About 2 and a half years pass by, 2021 comes around and on the 9th August 2021, Sony Pictures Entertainment completed the acquisition of Crunchyroll from AT&T for 1.175 billion USD through the Funimation Global Group, LLC. AT&T (who owned Crunchyroll from August 7th 2018 - August 9th 2021) so 3 years later when Sony took over, they now owned both Funimation and Crunchyroll, Sony then layed off basically all the EX Crunchyroll employees, workers and then took Funimation’s studio (their own) to start working on Crunchyroll instead. They then merged content from Funimation to Crunchyroll which started from March 1st 2022. Crunchyroll then transitioned with Funimation into Crunchyroll LLC. (Previously Funimation Company) Digital Copy’s didn’t however transfer… now let’s say literally now nearly 2 years later. It’s not Crunchyroll that shutdown Funimation, Funimation Merged into Crunchyroll to shut down Funimation’s app and website. Crunchyroll is Funimation’s staff, dubbing team etc just under a mask from when Sony decided to move everything more than likely due to Crunchyroll’s better reputation. Funimation wasn’t as liked so it seemed profitable, Crunchyroll’s site also seems better ran and is far more available in other countries and more people use it. This making Crunchyroll the decision and to just get Funimation’s stuff to Crunchyroll as it was easier.

@@elliottgaal9774 Well, a lot of the people in positions of power at Funimation personally hated him anyways for one reason or another. Most common theory is that they hated him for being an outspoken Christian or because he didn't toe the political line. Which wouldn't be surprising if you asked me, but I can only think what I think, I cannnot know what I don't know. Either way, it's obvious that they were just looking for an excuse to give Vic the axe at this point, even if that excuse was made up from whole cloth. The false allegations against him were the most convenient excuse at their disposal, especially in the wake of the whole MeToo movement, which had already devolved into a modern-day equivalent of the Salem Witch Trials by that point. Thus, the moment the allegations arose, the people at Funimation jumped on the opportunity like hyenas on a carcass, claimed to investigate on the matter to give off a façade of integrity, made a very botched and biased investigation (if they investigated at all), and promptly gave Vic the axe a week later, with the public being none the wiser. It would've been the perfect crime, were it not for the substantial amount of evidence of corruption and other dishonest behavior (such as forging evidence) that was gathered in the following months as well as many of the people disavowing the so-called "evidence" provided by KickVic. At the end of the day, I think it's safe to say that the whole Vic fiasco essentially signed Funimation's death warrant, with their quasi-monopoly on the anime licensing industry and Dragon Ball sales barely keeping them alive. It's only a matter of time before their company goes out of business, as more and more people are becoming aware of their corruption and fleeing for greener pastures.

He also is not a bible thumper because he made CDs of The Gospel of John. Vic created those as a way to give back to the fans, in an act of kindness, because he is a man of god. I'm atheist, but I took the CDs during a 2009 convention because they are a gift.

That last part is true! When the Elliot gindi news broke a couple weeks ago, my first thought was “is this legit or another Vic situation?” Turns out it seems pretty real there, which actually made my initial doubts feel terrible…

By supporting anyone who brings allegations with little to no proof and immediately firing them. Then Funimation is by effect, supporting the people who truly hate women. This does nothing but fuel fire. If Funimation acted like how a company should and let investigations happen, then this all could've been avoided. I have refused to spend a single dollar at Funimation since this happened. With them buying Crunchyroll, I have also stopped supporting them.+

It's not like the money I pay them somehow end up in the hands of the original creators, plus I both hate them and want to watch the show, so why shouldn't I pirate it? For most shows that don't go on for several seasons (or shows that aren't expected to anyways) the license for it is paid in a flat sum, not as a royalty. This means that all proceeds you pay goes only to them, not further supporting the author in any way. I can maybe get your argument for longer-running shows, like BnHA, One Piece, or at one point in time Fairy Tail, but for everything else not supporting the monopoly is literally just giving (a minuscule, of course) bit more hope to smaller studios.

I’m of this opinion when it comes to the Vic situation, if he’s innocent, then it means that they fired an innocent man, well, giving more respect and dignity to actual pedophiles, and are still actively hiring creeps. If he’s guilty, that still means that Monica, Jamie and the other should not be treated as victims because it means that they knowingly and willingly put their underage fans at risk . Think about it they claim that this was a “open secret “that he was a predator and yet they chose to do nothing.

Sometimes Funimation got away with changing the script in Hetalia, but only when the add ins weren't handfisted and the VAs seemed to be having fun. Although, i often prefer the original for its canon and Japanese humor, while other times the English version adds jokes with a more American perspective. Hit and miss, but an east and west perspective together, if well executed, can really work. CAN work.

The Vic situation is just like the Johhny Depp situation. Even if they lose there will still be overwhelming support for them.

It's funny because Chris Sabat is very much a moderate-liberal, he's not a social justice warrior by any means. I never pegged him as the kind of guy that would destroy someones life just because of an allegation, so clearly he has a lot personal bias against Vic. And emphasis on the "clearly", because we know from testimony that Vic would be the subject of a lot of jealousy.

The part about Vic was really bothersome. When you look at everything in context and get rid of the false "evidence" he seems like an extremely nice person. They need to start charging people criminally for making false allegations. It's sickening that people can try (often succeeding) to destroy someone's life but still get away scott free even if PROVED to be downright lying.

@@ImmaLittlePip Slight correction after doing some research: Sailor Moon's English dub was released in 1995, a year before Dragon Ball Z. The English dub of Sailor Moon premiered on the Canadian Network, YTV in August of that year and in America a month later. Like Dragon Ball Z, Sailor Moon did not have a successful air time airing on various syndicated networks across America before being picked up by Toonami, which also aired the last 17 episodes of the second season, R and omitted one episode from that season. The last season, Stars did not receive an English dub until 2019, when VIZ Media acquired the entire series 5 years prior. I heard that Stars was controversial and maybe that could have been why it didn't have an English dub after over 20 years

Yeah.

Vic is literally a darling. He's an amazing person and i'm just not saying that as a fan. I'm saying that because I'm not retarded. It's obvious that he's a flirty person but not in a "get you in bed" way. It's more of a "sit you down, talk about your day with a cup of tea or if you wanna be a little spicy, a glass of wine". Its especially noticeable in the character panels they used to do. He's put his own flirty personality in Edward, where Ed would never be so confident. Like, bruh, did you see the proposal scene?

I met Vic at a signing at Sakura-con years ago. The dude was super chill, especially with the girls ahead of me who were practically begging him for a hug which he obliged in spite of the protests of the con security. He also didn't bat an eye when I asked him for a second autograph for my friend who was in the Karaoke competition at the time and was heartbroken to have missed him, especially when she'd hand made a puppet of one of his characters she hoped he'd sign(Some yellow cat thing? I don't recall exactly, I'm not familiar with whatever show it was) and not only did he give me the second signature on the puppet he had the most sincere "aww" look of flattery on his face as he did. He even chatted with me about getting into voice acting until I got shooed off for holding up the line. Stand up guy, IMO.

@@skullsfire1155 to explain it a little better. RoosterTeeth, aka RT, quickly fired him and made a giant and pretty damning statement which basically implied he was 100% guilty of sexual assault and other stuff. A lot of their workers and voice actors like Shannon McCormick, voice of Ozpin and Washington, took to Twitter and were and still are very toxic about it. But throughout 2019 & 2020 it was shown RT was a horrible company 1.) Their Vice President of Marketing beating his wife and going to jail, and they took a while to fire him with no official statement 2.) raising prices to a large degree and ignoring grandfathered prices 3.) They tried to act as if they were supporting BLM...and immediately were called out by a former black worker for being a toxic company that allowed racism 4.) They didn’t pay their animators overtime and essentially got volumes of RWBY made for free 5.) Ryan Haywood was caught having many sexual relations with fans, things they accused Vic of doing, and they made a vague statement and barely commented on it with mainly repeating “We’re sorry we didn’t know” all while they remove past vids with him in it, and many many heads of the company leave Overall a very shady and shitty company that went from being respectable for being a small group of friends to a money hungry shell of its former self. Many people suspect that there is so many dark secrets hidden in roosterteeth that we have yet to find and that was the reason why they so harshly persecuted Vic, in order to draw attention away from themselves

The story: Sony Pictures Television bought a 95% stake in Funimation for 143 million USD. This was then approved in August 22nd 2017. On August 7th 2018, AT&T fully acquired Otter Media (Crunchyroll owner) this would then end Funimation and Crunchyroll’s partnership being announced on October 18th 2018; then on November 9th 2018 the contents with the merge were removed; thus creating a new let’s say… dubbing vs subbing war. About 2 and a half years pass by, 2021 comes around and on the 9th August 2021, Sony Pictures Entertainment completed the acquisition of Crunchyroll from AT&T for 1.175 billion USD through the Funimation Global Group, LLC. AT&T (who owned Crunchyroll from August 7th 2018 - August 9th 2021) so 3 years later when Sony took over, they now owned both Funimation and Crunchyroll, Sony then layed off basically all the EX Crunchyroll employees, workers and then took Funimation’s studio (their own) to start working on Crunchyroll instead. They then merged content from Funimation to Crunchyroll which started from March 1st 2022. Crunchyroll then transitioned with Funimation into Crunchyroll LLC. (Previously Funimation Company) Digital Copy’s didn’t however transfer… now let’s say literally now nearly 2 years later. It’s not Crunchyroll that shutdown Funimation, Funimation Merged into Crunchyroll to shut down Funimation’s app and website. Crunchyroll is Funimation’s staff, dubbing team etc just under a mask from when Sony decided to move everything more than likely due to Crunchyroll’s better reputation. Funimation wasn’t as liked so it seemed profitable, Crunchyroll’s site also seems better ran and is far more available in other countries and more people use it. This making Crunchyroll the decision and to just get Funimation’s stuff to Crunchyroll as it was easier. Funimation: May 9, 1994 - April 2nd, 2024. Nearly 30 years. RIP Funimation 🫡
