According to local media sources on the 21st, Koichiro Ito, who worked as a producer on popular films in Japan like "Your Name" and "Suzume" has been arrested for violating child pornography laws. Local reports state that Koichiro Ito was apprehended after police investigating another case of child prostitution discovered evidence of his involvement. It is reported that Koichiro Ito admitted to most of the charges, but stated that he couldn't recall the specific victims due to having similar conversations with other women.
Note: Not the director, but the producer!
-Not surprised
-But for some reason, I'm not very surprised
-Wow, I'm really not surprised at all
-Why am I not surprised..
-It's really not surprising at all
-Didn't that director have some kind of history before this?
-I found "Your Name" uncomfortable to watch, so I didn't watch "Suzume".
-Spoiler alert. That director's movies always include uncomfortable elements. For example: he male lead is in his mid-twenties and the female lead is a high school student, but the male lead is infatuated with her, trying to save the world. Even when the male lead is possessed by a child's spirit, the female lead sits on his lap without any concern, the chair reacts or doesn't react, and they even kiss the chair, and so on.
-I don't watch that director's films
ㄴIt's not Shinkai Makoto, it's a producer named Ito Koichiro. There seem to be some who confuse them.. Of course, even if it was the director who got caught, it wouldn't be surprising.
-I watched "Your Name" in the theater, but I felt disgusting after watching it, so I didn't even bother with "Suzume".
-No wonder why his works were disgusting.
