Quote:
A talent agency in Japan sued a 23-year-old woman and former idol for compensation after she allegedly violated a clause in her contract by dating a male fan in 2014. Presiding Judge Katsuya Hara of Tokyo District Court, however, did not find in favor of the agency and instead claimed that such contracts "significantly restricts the freedom to pursue happiness" and the ability to date the opposite sex falls under "the right to self-determination," which is equal to "living in a way one wants to."
This recent ruling is the opposite outcome of a similar case brought before the same court in September. In that case, Judge Akitomo Kojima ruled in favor of the agency and said, "Discovering romantic relations damages the image of idols. To gain the support of male fans, clauses banning romantic relations are necessary." Kojima blamed the girl for the dissolution of the idol group and fined her for part of her clothing and lesson costs. The total amounted to 650,000 yen ($5,386) in damages.
In Japan, celebrities are widely expected to lead highly moral, chaste lives and project an image of "purity" to appeal to their fans. Voice actress Yū Serizawa apologized for wearing a ring in 2014; AKB48 singer Minami Minegishi shaved her head in repentance for dating a dancer in 2013; and actor and singer Jin Akanishi was blackballed for marrying fellow actor and singer Meisa Kuroki in 2012.

Japanese fans are *** weird to accept that their idols are treated this way

Been reacclimating to and also enjoying FFXI in its current state. Hehe, Trusts are actually kind of fun. I mean, I'm sure there's some elite proven combos, but this one I just threw together because it looked cool was Ironeater, Gilgamesh, and Apururu(Lina suggested I join her unity cause she's the best Trust Whm).
So I take these three with me on my level 50 Rune Fencer to Fei Yin. Apparently I never did the Warp II quest on my original character, so I'm doing it so I can get the Shantotto Trust(gotta catch'em all). I uhh, was fighting some VT stuff in the basement, and I casted Flash to get hate, and well... first some dolls agroed out of their closet directly into my face. Then towards the end of killing the last doll, a magic pot(Dromas specifically) MAed onto my face. Then the next two pots as well. We killed through two double link VTs without anyone dying. I went into red a lot, but Apururu would heal me, pull hate, heal herself, and then Gilgamesh would either self SC or make Darkness off of Ironeater's Steel Cyclone, and get hate back. It was beautiful.

So how long has it been since we have had a thread locked without a word before or after the fact? Figure it has been 11 hours so I might as well ask.
