#im sorry w h a t
Hi everyone. As you can see, this is not a funny incorrect quote but I think it’s important to talk about this.
I’ve been looking through Tumblr and I have not seen the real comments but I’ve been hearing many people talking about how Yana and Rook’s VA, Yojiro Itokawa, are receiving hate and death threats over what happened in the recent update of Chapter 5.
Is this seriously happening?
Are people seriously sending hate and death threats over something as silly as RSA winning the VDC and Rook actually voting for Neige?
Look I get it, many of us have come to love the boys of NRC and come to love the dynamics of the school as well. So yes I get it that we want to see them excel in different ways with the biggest being winning against RSA. But this is taking things too far. And honestly, these haters are acting like children. This is something I want to raise to importance.
As someone who writes and creates a story, Yana has every right to portray the plot and characters the way he wants to. He is simply telling us a story in the way he feels will be interesting, not creating a fanfic to satisfy a selective audience. We should not expect him to follow our desired ships just because a large number of followers like it. So stop showing him hate.
Anyways, we should have all expected where this chapter was going due to how most chapters follow their respective fairy tales. So what, when Chapter 7 comes up are people gonna hate and send death threats to Silver’s VA just because he goes against Malleus, like the tale goes by?
Also, please don’t hate Yojiro. He is simply doing his job as a voice actor, it’s not like he is Rook himself. Just because people does not like how Rook developed as a character in the end does not give you the right to go after the voice actor who worked hard in portraying his character. This is simply the same as saying that his hardwork means nothing because he spoke the lines not expected by the fandom.
I don’t want to go on a tangent and make things more ugly but all I want to say is that we should all show appreciation for the creators. It’s the same for me and many on platforms like Tumblr. One hateful comment can break our heart and motivation to continue on. Think of how the two of them are feeling now.
