Ai, a high idol artist and anime voice actress, was arrested on the 15th of this month on suspicion of possessing narcotics, coca alkali and other drugs, and is still in detention, and the firm to which she belongs responded on the 26th and quickly terminated the contract. At the same time, one of the representative works dubbed by Ai Takabe, the animation "Love to Kill Baby", has also been affected, and the official website of the animation on the TBS side has removed her name. As for the official website of the independent series, there is currently no change.

Animation browsing is also off-stream
Such a disposition is a standard treatment of drug incidents in the Japanese entertainment industry, and there may be room for tolerance for scandals or general scandals, but as long as artists, voice actors, cartoonists and other people are in contact with drugs, they will be quickly cut by all parties, equivalent to pronouncing a social obliteration. The previous asuka cool drug incident was also consequentially made the classic PV "On your mark" almost unable to see the light of day again, but fortunately Ghibli took the appropriate strain to allow the disc to be successfully handed over to the Blu-ray set collectors.
The number of spoofs on the web is increasing
Fans who understand this also reacted at the first time, because it is impossible to predict how the dubbing works will be affected, and the current Blu-ray of "Love to Kill Baby" is selling at an alarming rate, after all, it is better to collect first than to be forced to take down the shelves in the future. As for whether there will be a follow-up to the animation, or just change the voice actor can solve... Everything is waiting for the official announcement of the anime in the future.
