Small KAT-TUN wank or You Killed Kame, You Bastards!
Another wank found on [info]wank_report. A bit mild but it has fangirls full of rage.

Over on the Akame LJ community frythe_egg decided to translate some news for the English fandom as they were just furious that a Shanghai TV drama used an altered image of Japanese pop idol, Kazuya Kamenashi from the popular boy band KAT-TUN, for a funeral photo.

In the news report that is translated the blame for it is passed off to a props man where a lot of the fangirl rage is directed at. The props man did issue an apology but that is not enough for some fangirls as they cry over 'poor Kame', who they are sure is also crying over this as using his photo for this is like 'implying he is dead'. And none believe that the props man would have just grabbed any photo off the net to use and used Kame's picture with full knowledge of who he was.

A handful of quotes from the comments as people express their rage:

kat_tunatic said:

what the fuck is the problem in his brian?..
well sure now that kame is SOOOO popular almost all over in Asia..
how can they not know him?..

I seriously hate the guy who used is pic..
when I read this one it shocked me..

grr..
they better apologize because its all their fault first..


futari_love said:

WHAT THE ...
such crap.
i don't think an apology is enough!
that is one of my fav kame pic.
poor kame :(


katrinasacay said:

that guy better go and hang himself..

its like he killed kame already on peoples mind in china..darn..

and his apology is kind of fake..he wants to get sympathy from people by saying he loves his work.. *well, we love kame more than how much u love your work!*


ilukame said:

I HATE THIS!!!!!!!!!!! I want to kill that guy who prepared that!!!!!
but good thing that he apologize!!! but I haven't forgive him yet!!!!!!
I want him to RESIGN!!!! Yeah, you are truly working hard in the job that you love. But the person you used as a props in a funeral is working hard too!!! I hate this!!! I was really hurt by this... it was like "KAME DIED in that scene..." COME ON!!!!!!!


There's also a mix of sane fans that aren't flipping out and some finding it rather amusing.

First Brand and now this poor prop guy. Lesson learned: Do not fuck with fangirls. They are rabid and full of capslock rage.

The horrible thing is that it's entirely possible that the Japanese fans would actually physically assault the man if they found him.

Let me get this straight. He used the guy's picture in a work of fiction for a funeral photo, and the fangirls think that this is going to upset the rockstar, who is probably sitting on his throne of money in his moon palace and therefore want to kill the slacker props guy who grabbed the first picture he could find? And what's more, even when he apologizes it isn't enough?

Mmmm, batshit

Someone really needs to create special police protection programs for people who make fangirls angry. Or at least create a t.v. show along those lines. I'd watch it.

Well, on one hand, taking a most probably copyrighted image of a mega-popular celebrity and using it as a funeral photo of all things wasn't a very good idea.

On the other hand, mmmm, rabid fangirl rage. (Also, wow, someone recognized the guy from his right earlobe? Jesus.)

On yet another hand... CONSPIRACY THEORIES!!11 Yes, people, it's all political symbolism! Or something.

(On a somewhat related note, I still wonder what fangirls would think about a local publisher using a photo of Mana for a book titled 'The Prussian Bride'... but then, as I hear Malice Mizer fangirls are not as rabid as they used to be.)

I'm personally amused by is_kazuchan who wants to "boikot."

I have no idea what that is, but I wonder if it'll hurt more than a boycott.

I'm slightly amused by the "OMG THIS IS SO HORRIBLE" and then refering to Japan and the Japanese as "Jap(s)." I believe their sensitivity is misplaced.

This is extremely frightening for me. I just started using Kamenashi Kazuya as a PB about a month ago without knowing who the hell he is. Now that I see he's a pop idol and his fans can be fucking psychos, I'm afraid one of them might eat me if they find out I'm using him for a character who eventually gets over twelve clips of bullets emptied into his chest.

"NEWS FLASH. China is stupid and evil, just like almost every other country in this world. "I made a mistake." That's what they all say."

What?

I'm also amused by the assertion that it's IMPOSSIBLE!!!1 for anyone to chance upon that picture without specifically typing "KAMENASHI KAZUYA/ 龟梨和也". Because, you know, pictures on the internet never ever end up being posted elsewhere divorced from their source material.

I mean, I have no opinion (nor do I care, tbh) whether the props guy in question chanced upon the picture or sought it out, but... "impossible"?
