Next Conan's hiiiiiint:

FIND A GOOD LAWYER.

...

Really it's kind of sad... I wonder how it will affect their working relationship? Although it does sound indirect.

Is it common in Japan for a woman to propose to a man?

They seemed like a pleasant couple, based on the photos...

Thats too bad - I never realized there were so many manga artists / voice actor marriages out there! I guess its something that is reality in the industry, but it seems like the marriages dont last too long... But I have never heard of a bad breakup for these couples, the breakups all seem to be friendly and no bitterness in them... Quite remarkable if I might say so...

I understand that this technically has to do with anime. It just seems more like a National Enquirer type story.

This is fairly normal. Have you ever heard of the "Japanese public face"? Or something similar?

Or the story of the food stall man, and what he really means when he says thank you.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo....

I really found it amusing when they announced they were getting married! And now Sad

It was sad when I heard that Kanai Mika was getting divorced a while ago, and now this.

NOOOO, NOOOO NOOOOOOOOO. This is terrible!!

I had a dream that they were going to divorce, just about a week ago!

This makes me sad. I thought they were SO fun together. I want to know why!

I kind of had a feeling that it would last, though it is sad.

I'm sorry to hear they broke up. I have to say I wondered if it would work out, seeing they were both getting married for the first time in their 40's but I had hoped for the best for them (I seem to remember they had been dating off and on for years, according to the original article on their marriage, so it wasn't a sudden marriage to begin with). I just hope the divorce wasn't bitter and they can both keep working together.

I wonder what she even found in him, other than "I write Conan". I found interesting that they were even married in the first place, though there is the instance of Oda Eiichiro and his wife, who voices Nami.
