because men and people in power were willfully ignorant and because he exploited how utterly loathed western female anime fans felt in the mid-2000s by throwing them a bone and doing stuff to make them feel involved, and talking to them like they were people (so he could gently caress them, mind)

For the most part this was the stuff of scuttlebutt for convention staff and cosplayers for over a decade and a half, you didn't know about it unless you happened to hang out around places those people did. He brought in money for conventions so people quietly let it slide while making sure to avoid leaving him alone with young women. Kind of a Your Neighborhood Catholic Priest situation, where everyone knows about it but keeps quiet because it's better than making waves.

But yeah Endorph basically got it in one

I think this ties into the Japanese thing where big buff dudes are the gay stereotypes, and thin prettyboys are the manly ladykillers (not literally usually).

So over there, it's Zangief who's coded gay, while Vega is 100% hetero.

Transcribing a live court hearing is a special skill and the transcriber needs to get paid. Also it's a court case so that is always gonna cost money

It's a lot of text (157 pages!) that needs to be converted from a stenographer's notes, and in general, transcripts are sold under the assumption they're shared so the price is adjusted to account for that.

The follow-up is better:

Beard: No, no, that's not it your honor.

Judge: Oh, I was looking forward to it.

I'm just picturing the judge being very sad that he was finally going to get something of value, only to be yet again disappointed.

Like please tell me that all the cases these dumb shits filed (I think there were like 19?) have been dismissed by now, because for the life of me I refuse to believe someone is that loving bad at lawyering, even if they don't specialize in this one type of legal field. The signature forgery I can sorta believe, but this here seems like a dumb comedy show skit that got rejected on account of being too loving stupid to be believable.

12/17 were dismissed during the hearing, the judge has until October 7th to decide whether or not to dismiss the other five.
