Good Smile reportedly put $2.4 million into 4chan, a move which may just end its incredibly lucrative deal with Disney.
Takanori Aki, right, is the president of Good Smile Company and is reportedly a friend of Hiroyuki Nishimura, the current administer of 4chan. Good Smile reportedly financially backed the site back in 2015, and past documents show Good Smile kept on with that support.
Good Smile, one of the world’s most popular toy companies, reportedly acted as the brace for one of the internet’s worst cesspools, financially backing 4chan. The site has gone on to facilitate harassment campaigns, racism, misogyny, and homophobia while being a vortex for internet conspiracy theories.
