Imagine running a cult and having enough gullible followers that you can fund and release an anime film based off one of the 2,000 books you've written (allegedly) every three years. Truly nuts. I'm assuming Ryuho Okawa is trying again for that elusive Oscar nomination?

I'm surprised Takehito Koyasu's not in this, he seems to be in a lot of these things.

ANN, you should really add a few more details about what makes Happy Science so controversial for these articles.

I thought he was one of the faithful, but I can't find any evidence to show that. Don't think he was in the last film.

For all we know he just likes the money from these things and doesn't care what crazy cult religion it's tied to. I know he likes the Gundam franchise a lot though, shows up in a lot of those constantly. But no never read anything about him being deep into Happy Science.Considering he's quite the prolific voice actor, him being in everything including crazy cult funded anime makes total sense. Also considering he does a lot currently including Attack on Titan recently.
