Any other studio would be fighting tooth and nails to keep someone who can make CG anime a success, and several in a row at that. Kadokawa be like: nah... Smile

And the reason why Kadokawa and TV Tokyo kicked Tatsuki is mysterious now.There are some interesting rumors from Japan,2ch and Twitter are like war zones now.In short someone in TV Tokyo framed Tatsuki for some complicated "adult reasons", the director didn't got fired for the 12.1 episode at all.

It seems like nobody is aware of the whole KF2 controversy(understandably, since it just came out for non-Japanese folk) so I'll just give a summary of how bad this is. This guy(Producer Nobuyuki Hosoya) is cancer, and the twitter controversy is just the tip of the iceberg. He allegedly tried to force the VAs to have sexual relations with him, and if it weren't for Producer Fukuhara being a paladin and protecting them he would've gotten to them. There's even some not-so-far-fetched rumors that he's connected to a KF2 sponsor company called Age Global networks, who themselves are connected to the Yakuza. The reason why this piece of shit hasn't got any repercussions is because he's riding the coat-tails of his parents, who are some big shots in the Japanese media industry. And don't get me started on the AGN controversy, because the whole thing is shady af.
Say what you will but in hindsight, Tatsuki was actually saved from the absolute shitshow that is the KFP.
Conclusion:
Hosoya is a piece of shit who deserves to be fired and arrested, and the whole KF2 matter should be investigated more thoroughly because it reeks of corruption. This is not just about a shitty sequel anymore.
