personally i open 100 video tabs of every episode of both the original fma and brotherhood, dubbed, and play them simultaneously in the english dub, in order to maximize the vic mignogna energy emanating into my house. his sin becomes my sin, his flesh becomes my flesh. we are of one mind.

My issue is he used the exact same voice for Tamaki in Ouran and Ed in FMA and now I think they’re the same character

tbh Risembool Ranger Fuhrer Vic Mignogna isn't going to outweigh the many, many other non-sex pests who do fantastic work in the FMA dubs personally, but I understand the concernNamtab posted:Just seperate art from artist and enjoy things doing that with FMA is easy, doing that with someone like JonTron, not so much, so good thing Vic isn't a one man show on anything worthwhile MechaX fucked around with this message at 14:13 on Aug 26, 2022 |

Yeah, I still like the dub well enough (hell, I just rewatched the show recently) so it's not really that big an issue

He only ever really seemed to have two voices anyhow: his regular voice (Ed, Spirit, Rohan, Qrow), and “I just had rusty nails and broken glass for breakfast” (Broly, Bui)

Since it's tangentially related, I know that Vic was replaced by Johnny Yong Bosch in Dragon Ball ever since he sued Funimation. Did Funimation ever release a dub of the Broly movie with Johnny on vocals or did I just imagine that? Incidentally, it's always worth remembering that if Vic hadn't decided to sue Funimation he'd be riding high on the popularity of Dragon Ball Super. Seeing his career implode is fun but the fact he only faced consequences because he insisted on suing his employer is just so good.

personally would not describe a rapist only facing consequences because he mildly annoyed a major corporation as 'so good'

Also, you're probably thinking of Broly in FighterZ, where his Super incarnation was recast as Johnny.

I wouldn't be shocked to be wrong about this, but I didn't think anyone had accused him of rape "just" sexual assault and harassment.

This whole shitshow basically started with Monica Rial admitting she was raped around the time Broly came out and the accusations started. At least I’m pretty sure that’s what went down.

Like I don't want to imply he isn't a complete piece of poo poo or anything, I just think it's bad to say he did things that none of his victims have claimed he did.

Endorph posted:personally would not describe a rapist only facing consequences because he mildly annoyed a major corporation as 'so good' Yeah when you put it like that describing the situation the way I did was careless at best. I'm sorry that I was so glib. To be clear the fact he only faced consequences because he annoyed a corporation and not because he assaulted multiple women is apauling. I'm glad he finally faced some consequence for his actions but it's hosed up that after years of traumatising people he is only facing some degree of consequences because he decided to sue for defamation.

Vic was not accused of rape. As an aside for timeline stuff - Rial only shared her story after everything kicked off, and the angry swarm of sex pest fans had descended on others speaking out. He'd already been fired by funimation at that point.

Some were about him being a creep and even more about him just being a total entitled dick to whichever poor sap got the job of being his convention handler.

I only really knew about a disgusted sentiment that went around some of the fan circles I frequented at the time, when he was announced for Edward for FMA. Didn't really understand it at the time, mainly because he seemed to be an okay Ed, but having it all spill out when this poo poo started really brought that into focus all of a sudden. And yeah, this was back when LJ was thriving, had a friend who regularly posted FMA fanfic, so this had been happening a long time when it finally came out fully.

I think that you can argue that while serial sexual predators see every possible career as a vehicle for indulging their appetites, being a celebrity actor in media aimed at teenagers was a particularly dangerous occupation for Mignogna to obtain.
