So what will happen next? Will Kimura's fans riot? Or will they march and protest at the agency?
Oh, none of that.
Nothing happened.
The number one national superstar was blacklisted without incident. Because those fans are fake; no matter how passionate they are, they won't go up against the agency or attack the gang. At most, they'll just curse a few times online, which is useless.
Back then, there was a celebrity in Duanmu Huai's circle who got arrested, and his fans were bragging online about breaking him out.
And what happened?
Nothing made it to the news.
After a year or so, it's almost forgotten.
So in Japan, no matter how glorious these entertainers appear and how they rally responses, privately, they're ultimately just dogs raised by their agency. Tezuka Renichi once hinted to Duanmu Huai that after the deed was done, if Duanmu Huai needed anything, they could let some popular idols keep him company... even as a group.
