I haven't been following this all that closely, but was there anything that said why these threats where being made? I probably missed an article somewhere along the line... I guess I'm wondering what it is about the series or author that has got somebody so bent out of shape. Again, I haven't really been following it recently, but now I'm really wondering... Confused

Because the individual is jealous and holds personal grudges against Fujimaki-sensei's success with his manga and wants attention, but clearly going about it the wrong way, where it involved innocent people as the threats were being made the entire time.

It's a domestic terrorist. Fujimaki-sensei is too busy and successful likely doesn't remember who the person was in his class in high school. Since the classmate claims that he does....

In a separate development, the threat letter mailed to MBS, the Osaka-based station that aired the Kuroko's Basketball anime, specifically warned it against airing a second season.

Speaking of which, it is high time that a second season be announced already! We can't give in to terrorist threats, after all.

Right now this is just sad, but there's a possibility that people could die before this is over, which is a very scary thought.

I think chances are that due to this there won't be a season two.

Glad this person doesn't know where to find him. Who knows what he would do.

My guess is they will only delay it, if they do anything.

I meant I hope it doesn't end up with someone (or lots of people) getting kill like on the same level as Virginia Tech massacre or Aurora theater shooting.

I'm sure they'll catch him soon enough. It's not like he wants his identity hidden anyway. The culprit already narrowed it down to Fujimaki's former classmates, and he's posted online, so I'm sure they can track him down.
