Ever felt frustrated over not streaming your favorite anime? A 35-year-old Texas man, Joseph Roy Ozment, took it to an illegal extreme. On July 25, he left a profanity-laced voicemail for the Governor’s office, threatening to stab those behind a supposed anime-ban law. But Texas never passed such a law—he likely mixed it up with adult site age-verification rules or bans on AI-generated obscene material involving minors. State police tracked him to his Houston home; he’s out on $5,000 bond. If convicted of third-degree felony terroristic threat, he could face up to 10 years in prison and a $10,000 fine. Ever lost your cool over anime access issues? How’d you calm down?
