Translation: We're so obsessed with this V.A. that we can't stand to see her get married off to somebody we don't approve of, because we feel we have the right to control and manage every aspect of this person's life.

See: "Perfect Blue."

Kinda funny that you mention that because that's the only movie of Satoshi' Kon's that Kouchi Yamadera WASNT in. (excluding the one that never made it out)

I also just noticed the huge age difference they have. Guess it gets less weird the older you get. I think you're probably right, Apollo-kun. Or at least pretty close to the mark. That, or she just doesn't want to bother with it anymore now that she's married.

This made laugh my ass off.

Geeze, you stop liking a person because she's married? It's not like she ever in your reach before.

I was wondering about this - who manages the fan club? But yeah, that's a little disappointing if people closed down her fan club because she got married. If they cared about their beloved unattainable celebrity, they would be HAPPY for her. But if we're referencing Perfect Blue here...

Yeah, I'm sure that the club shutting down has nothing to do with her getting married. Rolling Eyes

I'd hold the ceremony in secret just to be on the safe side if I were them. Don't want yet another crazed otaku running wild with a kitchen knife during the event.

I imagine the voice actor doesn't want to be bothered now that she is married. Some of her fans probably are very out there, so she probably doesn't want to site to become a ground for others to complain about her husband or worse.

Some of the anime fans in Japan frankly are just flat out weird, so I don't blame her. Being a voice actor has it's benefits, but also has it's minuses as well.
