But how will the brave samurai be able to show himself in public now he's cut off his topknot? Truly he is the Kambei of the 21st century.

I should find this surprising but sadly I don't.

While I applaud his devotion to his beliefs,I hope he realize' s that he is just one person and he will not change the outcome. No one single person will change it.

I like Kemono Friends but this type of YouTube stunt is silly. If the potential of a fan backlash and losing money doesn't sway Kadokawa than a guy shaving his head won't make a difference.

Even if this dramatic plea might not convince Kadokawa to rehire Tatsuki back as director of Kemono Friends, I respect his sheer devotion that drove him to shave himself bald.

^^Yeah, everyone knows that a serious protest involves self-immolation (or car bombing)...Now, he just looks a Buddhist monk minus the robe

Maybe he's preparing for autoinconflagration?

People do it all the time, like that one AKB48 member and the famous Britney Spears incident circa 2007. In a way, it's a lot like all the ineffective hunger strikes.

the difference between having hair and shaving it off is actually pretty challenging, not like users in this thread would know

A protest could come in any form and sizes, doesn't necessarily meant that you had to commence massive gathering or kill something for it. Oh, Mhora.
Regardless of the ignorance of the latter, I'd applaud the effort of this person.
