The Wakayama Prefectural Police revealed on May 8, 2024 that Your Name. movie producer Koichiro Itou has been referred to prosecutors for additional violation of Child Prostitution & Pornography law in Japan, after it came to light that he had paid an underage girl for sexual intercourse.

The latest case involved a 17-year-old high school girl from Yokohama. Investigators believe Itou knew the girl was a minor when he paid her 30,000 yen for having sexual intercourse at his residence in December 2023.

He is also suspected of taking and saving photographs of the act.

    Wait you actually thought Boy and the Heron had a plot?

    My wife literally has multiple limbs covered in Miyazaki tattoos and even she walked out of that movie going “WTF was that mess?”

    We’ll just have to agree to disagree here. Clearly we have different opinions of what makes for a good story

      More of a plot than Suzume, definitely.

      We’ll just have to agree to disagree here.

      The nature of two online nerds talking anime, I guess.
