A scandal surrounding a famous Japanese voice actor
A few months ago, we presented a list of anime that would soon be landing on Crunchyroll, which we notably missed.

The anime is produced by Studio Blanc, to whom we recently credited Iskai The reincarnation of a powerful exorcist from another world (OV: Saikyo Onmyōji no Isekai Tenseiki: Geboku no Yōkai-domo ni Kurabete Monsutā ga Yowasugiru n Da ga), and its output is Scheduled for the course of 2023.
And precisely, fans recently learned that one seiyu (or voice actor) from the anime Nanny Going to be replaced due to “various circumstances”. Of course it is Takahiro Sakurai, a famous Japanese voice actorGriffith is best known for acting in its adaptation desperatelyOr even Cloud Strife In Final Fantasy VIIwho recently dropped out of the project.
So it seems that the “various circumstances” that prompted his dismissal, would be a major contributory factor. An extramarital affair Sakurai had for ten years with a scriptwriter for her radio showAnd which will be released a few months ago.
This dismissal would then prove to be a very bad omen for Sakurai’s career, which would later affect other projects Seiyu participated in.
