Takahiro Sakurai - Tumblr Posts

SAY IT LOUDER!!!

In all seriousness, I hope the women involved in the scandal get to remain anonymous and receive the support they require. And I hope that none of the reputation of any production he’s involved in take a dive. Each work is the creativity and effort of many many people. Let’s not trash them because one guy decided to be a dick. In regards to Mononoke, I will look forward to it whether they recast him or not. Sakurai Takahiro may be a huge jerk but he truly has a talent and his voice is indisputably perfect for Kusuriuri - a character I have a very personal attachment to. On the other hand, if they do decide to recast him, I wish the new guy the very best and it will not change my decision.

I will watch the new Mononoke movie with all the excitement and love I feel for this series all these years. Because it’s a series with so much depth both narratively and historically. It holds so much work and wisdom of so many talented people that I refuse to let one person ruin it.

If the Medicine Seller saw how Takahiro Sakurai treats women, he'd feed him to a bakeneko.
