"Anime director Yutaka Yamamoto (Wake Up, Girls!, Kannagi) showed his anger at Wake Up, Girls! cast members last week after he interpreted their remarks at a talk event as a gibe against him.
Okuno asked the others at the event if they were happy about their characters' underwear not being shown in the newest Wake Up, Girls! anime series.
Okuno: Hey, I want to know. You can't see the characters' underwear in the performance scene. Does that make you happy?
Everyone *riotous laughter*
Okuno: This comment says their are lots of people who are unhappy.
Yoshioka: They say that, but the reality is there isn't anyone!
Okuno: It's always been bothering me, from 4 years ago.
Imagine having your daughters taken away and then seeing them brainwashed by some bitch into badmouthing and hating you. Even though you raised and nurtured them.
This is what it feels like to be Yamakan.
Don't be surprised if he's lashing out right now. Don't be surprised if he's angry. After all he did to save anime, you just throw shit in his face after all he did for you. It's a surprise he hasn't become a Dark Messiah.
But then again Christ himself was persecuted, jeered and abandoned before he died on the cross.
He didn't do anything good with his daughters. When will he finally commit seppuku?

>Old man yells at cloud
Benjamin Diaz
He made the anime, giving them a spotlight and took them on promos to America and throughout Japan.
He was there from the start working with them to save anime.
Now this. This is the biggest insult since Seiyu Shield.
Zachary Campbell
Yamakan is a God.
Isaac Reyes
According to recent tweets, Yamakan has been RT people bitching about the new WUG CG and this is stop motion in 2017.
No Yamakan, No Saving Anime.
Tyler Peterson
>Idolshit >saving anime
Whew lad.
Ryan Ward
I am obviously too dumb to understand how this is a gibe against him. Or why seiyuu care whether their characters show their underwear or not in the first place.
Alexander Barnes
someone repost that story about him at the con lol
Jason Cooper
Nothing wrong with idols. But that's not how you save anime.
Isaac Wilson
Wrong CGshitter. WUG saved anime and you better respect the Messiah. Blessed be his name.
Angel Butler
I think it's in reference to him getting mad that fans didn't like the girls' underwear showing.
Ryan Butler
Go Yamakan!
Noah Reed
>no longer having anything to protect
Carson Reed
He was the savior anime needed, but did not want.
Kevin Harris
GANBARE OLD WUG CHAN
Samuel Jackson
So we will hate him because he can take it.
Dylan Robinson
if twilight fails will it be a bullet or the rafters
Lincoln Peterson
This part is literally the only good thing about WUG and only because of this particular shot.
Ayden Wood
your post doesn't make any fucking sense. how are they "hating" him?
Jacob Turner
What Yamakan needs to do is write a diss track.
Aiden Taylor
>animenewsnetwork >"saved anime" >idolshit >ultra long blogpost >reddit spacing
Why is this garbage still up?
Eli Anderson
Yamakan? More like Yamakan't.
Josiah Harris
Yamakan has made exactly 1 Fractale. How many Fractales have you made?
That's right, none.
Chase Ramirez
This guy is absolutely insane
Noah Williams
I already loved the man, and this only makes me love him more.
William Smith
> This is what it feels like to be Yamakan. He's a talentless cocksucker and a hack.
Brayden Ramirez
It baffles me that Yamakan is still in the industry.
Landon James
>Yamamoto, known for successful productions like “The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya,” faced a barrage of criticism after he tweeted on September 23, “It’s gotta be said, people who are years into adulthood and still watch anime are handicapped people.”
>Replying to criticism such as, “Did you lose your mind after getting too involved with anime?” Yamamoto tweeted, “Well, handicapped people still have human at heart, so I guess ‘evil’ is the only way you can describe them.”
>A barrage of angry responses followed, such as: “Don’t treat people who are just a little different like they’re disabled, that’s rude toward people actually suffering from disabilities.”
>Yamamoto responded by posting on his blog that he had said such things many times before. “You guys are all like Pavlov’s dogs or something, I guess this means anime might actually have some kind of brain-melting effect,” Yamamoto wrote in the post.
>“Anime-watching creatures”
>On September 27, Yamamoto posted a mock apology, stating that he was “deeply sorry” regarding the controversial comment.
>“I ended up saying that these ‘anime-watching creatures years into adulthood’ — that is, those things called otaku — were actually ‘human beings’ like handicapped people,” Yamamoto said in the blog post.
Fuck him, he's an asshole. He couldn't even do Lucky Star right.
Henry Clark
I don't think you know what a blogpost is.
Nolan Torres
this makes me like him lol
Luis Moore
based af he's like anno but without any achievement
Logan Hughes
What's "reddit"?
Eli Collins
He is right though. Otaku clearly have severe autism
Dylan Martin
Kannagi was good but that really has everything to do with the source material.
Justin Anderson
This sound oddly like typical Sup Forums shitflinging, with "no u" tier baits flung around.
Ian Watson
That's some quality shitposting though.
Austin Hernandez
>Hurrr you guys are retarded for having a hobby >"What? Asshole." >Durr sorry I meant you creatures Based asf!!!
Matthew Flores
Just a continuation of his saga, he died for our sins.
Dominic Gomez
Can't wait until His resurrection, bringing anime to a new golden age.
Lucas Kelly
BASED YAMAKAN
Cameron Howard
>lol >af Fuck off.
Camden Martinez
>Fractale At first they laugh at you.
>WUG And then they hate you.
>??? And then, you win.
Hunter Barnes
Kind of stalled on the "laugh at you" phase.
Ethan Jackson
But he still watches and makes anime?
Dominic Cooper
He just lost it after he and his studio were kicked from WUG.
We should show him pity not hate. This is the man who no longer has anything to protect.
Gabriel Rodriguez
>This is the man who no longer has anything to protect
Brandon Flores
A hero industry doesnt deserve.
Camden Young
LS was still boring after he was fired. Kannagi and WUG are superior anime.
Gavin Baker
i thought fractale was okay
Jason Nguyen
...
Aaron Perry
Maybe he sucked plenty of dicks when he was younger. Or even now.
Caleb Cooper
Another publicity stunt from him. It got stale a while ago.
Matthew Smith
must be pretty bad at it since they turned on him
Ryan Young
Yamakan is anime personified. I would've love an anime about the embitterment of an anime executive as he slowly got shunned by the anime community
Jonathan Ross
/ourguy/
Christian Lopez
Has there ever been a more entertaining trainwreck than Yamakan in the anime industry?
Jeremiah Evans
The Career Suicide of Hirano Aya
Juan Smith
>Imagine having your daughters taken away and then seeing them brainwashed by some bitch into badmouthing and hating you. Even though you raised and nurtured them.
Yamakan deserved to have his animu daughters taken away.
Cameron Ortiz
So bad that he thinks panty shots are worth a fruitful discussion
Blake Barnes
>suits humiliate Tatsuki >all of Japan come to his defense >suits humiliate Yamakan >"lel what a faggot" I'd hate to be Yamakan.
Jeremiah Wright
He acts like a faggot. Fuck him.
Daniel Brooks
How on Earth this guy is not shitlisted by the industry after literally a decade of starting multiple shits up? Does his uncle own Kadokawa or what?
>But then again Christ himself was persecuted, jeered and abandoned before he died on the cross. Christ wasn't a faggot.
Robert Bailey
Yamakan is the hero anime needs.
Kevin Wood
Lucky Star was better with him in charge you absolute pleb.
Liam Ross
Looks realistic. I can't tell apart human idol a from human idol b.
Aaron Jackson
Unlike many others on other sites, I personally don't mind the pantyshots in WUG. But I don't like Yamakan's personality, and his outbursts aren't very funny at all.
Eli Robinson
Truly the trump of anime
Mason Morris
So he's making anime great again? Fantastic.
Chase Edwards
>He also tweeted an apparent reference to Devilman about no longer having anything to protect. In another Tweet, Yamamoto said "they" had figuratively stepped on a landmine. " Is he going to go on a killing spree or something? You would think he would be used to people making fun of him by now.
Ryan Perry
He's going to go fight a war against anime, he tried to save it but they were no longer worth saving.
Easton Reyes
Normally failure like Yamakan has experienced would humble a man, but not him, still has an ego as big as the moon.
Henry Murphy
>shits on otaku >molests seiyuu >insults everyone he ever worked with And he still just had a successful fundraising project. Yamakan is a legend and everything Sup Forums aspires to be.
Oliver Bennett
God still has many supporters
Ryder Taylor
He sounds like a shitlord.
Brody Sanders
t. Okuno
David Wright
Based Yamakan.
Matthew Evans
This is funny in a sense because it seems like no one really takes him seriously in the industry though.
He's not being outspoken really, he's just, unhinged now.
William Powell
Is he holding a dick in the uncensored image?
Sebastian Robinson
>The first four episodes of Lucky Star were better than the next twenty Sure buddy
Gavin James
Yes, it's his waifu's giant severed penis. Go read Devilman, user.
Angel Price
Why does he like Oats n Honey so much? Dark Chocolate and Peanut Butter are much better.
Camden Jackson
Name a scene more remembered than the cornet scene. Didn't think so.
Yamakan is Lucky Star.
Jack Wright
>timotei >Ghost of her mother >Initial D parody
It's actually odd the cornet is the first thing that comes to your mind...
Brandon Miller
Well it's natural if you drop it early
Aaron Rodriguez
>How on Earth this guy is not shitlisted by the industry after literally a decade of starting multiple shits up? I'd say he probably is. His upcoming film had to be crowdfunded, is produced by a studio he founded specifically to make this film and the PV is of questionable quality. I wouldn't be surprised if it's the last thing he ever makes.
Nolan Perry
Didn't he try to recruit animators on Twitter at some point
Henry Fisher
Kokono connect incident
Jace Lopez
Yeah. And, of course, he got furious when nobody wanted to jump on his sinking ship with him.
Ian Gutierrez
I think he did that when WuG was airing, not sure if he's done it for Twilight.
Brayden Perry
he'll probably suicide bomb the wugs when it fails
Julian Murphy
I still like how Sup Forums fucking took leaps of logic and thought Yamakan was involved in it as well.
When there is a shitstorm drama, it is always from Yamakan. He should grow up and put his head down like a real shakaijin.
Adam Cox
I wonder if he's secretly dying of cancer and stirs shit because he doesn't care anymore
Aiden White
>Ijimen connect Who in their right mind thought this was a good idea?
To be honest, she fucked up big time. If she just had a secret boyfriend or even an indecent relationships with many guys outside of the industry, she would probably still have the job. There is a saying that rabbit doesn't eat the grass around its nest for a reason.
Jace Perry
Terashima still gets work though
Bentley Hughes
I don't understand. Did they want to show panties or not? Were they happy about it or not?
