Being A Game Voice Actress Can Be Scary, Yurika Ochiai Receives Death Threats
Being a game voice-actress can be scary at times. Yesterday, Japanese VA Yurika Ochiai revealed in her blog that police recently contacted her about a number of death threats that had been made against her.

Ochiai has decided to take time off from her blog and any announcements about publicity events while she deals with the threats.

Sadly, death threats against Japanese actors and voice-actors (particularly females) seem to be becoming a more common thing in the last few years. Many VAs have reported that they have recieved threats from upset "fans" for reasons such as: portraying a character in the wrong way, portraying a character that fans don't like, dating/marrying someone fans don't approve of, appearing in games/shows fans don't approve of, and so on.
