Did he actually think a public insult would go off unpunished? He should feel lucky Horie-san didn't sue him.
Also, for a seyuu talent is far more important than looks but Horie-san doesn't lack any of them. (why pick her of all?)

I don't see how this is so insulting or why anyone cares.
The one thing that bugs me here is that a voice actor's looks are relevant at all, but I guess that can't be helped.


this. Seriously..."ruining career" for attacking someone? Grow up people. And its just over who he attacked? What if it had been a lesser known person?

The problem is, he's insulting people directly related to his sponsors. It's like you make a contract and then offend the people in charge of your contracts. Expect to lose that contract.

Actually he's not entitled to it if he signs a contract with an agency that also represents Yui Horie. Bashing the other bands or people that work for the agency is one of the biggest No-Nos you can do in the industry.

Well he's right that seiyuus sometimes seem a little "artificial" (pretending to be younger than their age and acting all cute and stuff so that they appeal to the otakus etc. etc.) but goddammit, that's the nature of the whole industry. And seriously, Jinkaku Radio doesn't "look" that classy either. Everyone in the showbusiness tries to appeal to their fans and if the dude's so bothered by seiyuus and their "cheap" appearance why does he want to work for anime and make money through anime at all. Speaking your mind is alright, but that comment was simply sort of stupid and phoney. And to pick Horie Yui of all people as an example for "cheap" and "deteriorated". There are better examples to get his point across.

Haha, I don't think you get to say cool story bro when the person you're saying it to commented on something directly related to the subject of the thread. Obviously you care one way or another or you wouldn't be in this thread.

Yui doesn't sound like a person who would hold a grudge against someone insulting her especially if they apologized afterwards.

Fanrage is gonna happen in any type of media heck I would get pretty pissed if someone from within the industry insulted my favorite seiyuu/actor/etc..., but I would get over it and move on.

Not really anything to kill each other over with.

Sure, everyone may have his own opinion, but when it comes to insults, you should, when to keep it for yourself. Not only did he insult everyone in the business, but posting a picture of one of the most famous ones, was simply an act of disrespect. The punishment may seem harsh, but honestly he can be happy, if he still can walk the streets without getting beaten up by millions of angry fans.

I still think it would not be something that should be said about her. She seems like such a sweet person.

However,

On the long list of things you could say about someone "cheap" hardly makes the top of the list. I mean for years people have said that actors and actresses are artificial, that they only play the character. It is more of a testament acting.

Therefore, I don't think the punishment matches the crime. I mean if every time someone insulted a famous figure they lost there job there would hardly be any people left.

This seems like too much of an overreaction to me. I understand Horie Yui didn't do anything to deserve his comment, but some of you people are practically worshiping her. The guy even apologized to her afterwards. There's some truth in his words if anyone actually read them. It's a shame we won't get to hear their music, but I guess it can't be helped.

Well, we can see here. The insult is not really an insult or lighter compared to Western's way. Second, Yuki (?) actually apologize to anyone who felt insulted (including Yui's fans).

This actually a good thing to note since we are rarely saw anybody on the entertainment industry (or even politics) doing these kind of thing. Being delicate I mean.

"No one messes with Horie Yui and gets away with it! He got what was coming to him. Asshole."

Comments like this are disgusting.

It was immediately removed and he apologised. This was a post on his blog, somewhere he should be allowed to voice his opinion. The post wasn't made to insult her but to comment on how the looks seiyuu seem to affect their careers. 'I don't say it's good or bad. It's a matter of taste.'

Everything he said perfectly valid and understandable. The problem was using her picture and even that would've been fine if he hadn't used the word 'cheap' or somewhat ironically, a seiyuu that wasn't so big an idol. Removing it from his blog and his apology should've been enough. Being dropped from the anime was harsh but still acceptable. Anything more than that is stupid and unreasonable. Including the comments from people on here. Especially ones like 'he should die', even if they don't mean it literally.

A large amount of people on here seems far worse as people than this guy appears to be.

Literally saying, his comment wasn't a personal attack at her and being a prick shouldn't vary in its reception by how popular the victim is. I didn't really go into whether I thought it was an ok or bad thing for him to do because that was beside my point and thus according to your logic, that means I'm saying it's acceptable? You're fallacious argument aside, I think his opinion was his own but using specific people as an example wasn't as it could be quite upsetting.

He just "stated the obvious"
but sometimes you can be screwed by just "stating the obvious" depending on your position.
And although it is obvious that seiyuus look less than an idol, he should've chosen a much younger seiyuu(at least under 25) as an example for a fair comparison.
There might be some idol stars whose moms are born in the same year as Horue Yui.

well, "cheap" might be insulting to someone but hey- that's life, just get over it. not everyone's going to like you or your looks. and well, i think it's perfectly fine that way. though i have to say i value respect a lot and calling someone "cheap" isn't very wise. well, he "learned it the hard way" now but i still think it's y too much..

She looks absolutely creepy based on her pic on here. But then the angle does seem to have a big difference with her... she looks like a cutie pie from some but at other times she's definitely a double-bagger... but it escapes me why the looks of a voice actor or a musician should matter at all...

Who is 17? Horie Yui is 35 years old. Not much of an idol at that age, I agree if he want an idol seiyuu to compare he should take the young seiyuus like HanaKana or Yuuki Aoi.
