Hey everyone,
There's been a change in my professional journey that I feel is important to share with you. Firstly, because your encouragement and love over the years mean so much to me, and secondly, because I believe this experience can help others. With that, I regret to inform you that my time as an ADR scriptwriter for Crunchyroll has come to an unexpected end.
This decision came as a surprise to me, and I have sought legal advice to better understand the circumstances. While I can't go into all the details, I want to assure you that I am taking the necessary steps to address the situation.
Let this be a sign to everyone living with a disability especially if yours is invisible like mine-of how crucial it is to understand your rights under the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) and empower yourself to be treated fairly. Despite this setback, I am more committed than ever to continue doing what I love and bringing the characters you cherish to life through voice.
I will also be featuring more content on the ADA and how it can protect you from discrimination. No company is required to be ADA compliant, but they also aren't exempt from the law. As long as you know your rights, you can protect yourself.
Thank you for your unwavering support over the years. Your love and encouragement mean the world to me, and I'm excited to see where this new chapter leads.
Stay tuned for more updates.
Much love,
Leah
Weekly Magazine Report
This time, I, Toru Furuya, have been interviewed by Shukan Bunshun. I would like to apologize and report about the serious sin I have committed.
I had an affair with a female fan for a long period of four years, from September four years ago until last year. At first, I was charmed by her who supported me unconditionally, and I started to contact her on my own initiative.
During our relationship, there was a time when we had an argument and I impulsively raised my hand against her. It was the worst behavior as an adult and as a human being.
Additionally, I committed the unforgivable act of forcing her to have an abortion. I am truly, truly sorry for deeply hurting her both mentally and physically.
I cannot apologize enough for betraying the trust of my long-time fans who have supported me, for disappointing, hurting, and tarnishing my character.
I have betrayed the trust of everyone involved, causing them great inconvenience.
I am prepared to devote the rest of my life to making sincere amends and accepting any punishment.
I am deeply sorry.
Toru Furuya
