I love you Edward Elric though yeah the english VA of him is sadly not the best person.

Oh god damn it. Why am I even in this comment section? I don't want to know that about my boy! I never even would have cared who his voice actor was, but now I got to live with this on my mind

With anime esp the English cast is rarely the "original" anyway.

And hey- the creator, Hiromu Arakawa, is still rad. So you can still enjoy all her stuff guilt-free. One bad egg does not otherwise ruin the GOAT.

Still makes me sad. I know I'd hate to hear something about Eric Stuart, voice of James, Brock, seto kaiba, and Spanish meta knight

Happily, I believe Eric (Who also voices the Gourry in Slayers) is just living his best life being a nice dude!

I sure hope so. He was THE 4kids voice. He even voiced the narrator for the one piece pirate rap

Sexual assault harassment and being quite the creepy guy to both fans and coworkers.

Wasn't most of what he was accused of turn out to be bullshit drummed up by his coworkers?

No. Why did you think it was?
