Man accused of threatening governor over anime access
1 Views · 20d ago
Ever had that gut punch when locked out of your favorite anime platform? A 35-year-old Texas man, Joseph Ozment, hit this wall with Crunchyroll’s unbudging age restriction, had a mental breakdown, and left a threatening, expletive-filled voicemail for the governor’s office—landing him arrested on a third-degree felony charge. Texas’ new anti-animated child porn law is criticized for sweeping up legitimate sites like Crunchyroll. Ozment gets the law’s intent but feels the state overstepped, though he admits his reaction was wrong. Have you dealt with ridiculous anime age restrictions? Do you think the law went too far, or was his response uncalled for? Share your thoughts!
