Fuwa-chan Faces Online Criticism Following iPhone Exposure and Controversial Comments

My name is Huwa-chan and I use Google Pixel.

This is a line he used to say in a Google Pixel smartphone commercial in which he appeared until he was “fired” for his outburst against comedian Yasuko.

Google responded to Friday Digital’s interview with the following statement

Google has a strict policy regarding conduct that does not respect others. We have suspended the advertisements and promotional materials that we are running on Google Pixel featuring the relevant celebrities. We will make appropriate decisions regarding contractual relationships in accordance with Google’s policies going forward.

The company responded, “We will make an appropriate decision in accordance with Google’s policies.

Huwa-chan, who was supposed to be in a position to promote the company as an image character, undoubtedly caused trouble for Google by her outspoken words. It can be considered an act of betrayal to have such a situation occur after receiving a large amount of money for appearing in a commercial. There is a high possibility that a penalty fee will be incurred.

However, Huwa’s betrayal was not limited to this.

On X, a user posted a screenshot of Huwa-chan’s post, which he discovered was labeled “Twitter for iPhone. This was a feature that was previously included and was designed to show what device the post was written from.

Recently, that feature has been removed, but in fact, it can still be displayed today by using Google’s extension tool. When we used the tool to trace back past posts, we found that most of them were posted from iPhones.

The interview team also installed the tool and checked it out,

I’m really sorry, and I know this isn’t the best time to report this, but I said something I shouldn’t have, and it hurt you, and I apologize directly to the person in question.

The post on the 4th, “I’m sorry, I shouldn’t say this now, but I said something that I shouldn’t have said and hurt you.

The Google Pixel is an Android device.

Incidentally, Huwa-chan wrote on X on April 6 of this year

《My name is Huwa-chan! I’m using Google Pixel ！！！！！ It’s me ！！！！！！》

She posted on X on April 6 of this year, “My name is Huwa-chan!

And on July 22.

I did eraser magic for my uncles and they were so excited.

This post was also written as “Twitter for iPhone,” so it is highly possible that even this post was actually made using an iPhone. The eraser tool can be used on an iPhone by using an application such as “Google Photos.

I think it’s hard to find a contract that says you have to use a product even if you appear in a commercial. For example, a very successful actor may appear in a commercial for a mini-car but drive a foreign car in his private life. But this time, since the actor was also inconvenienced by the termination of the commercial, it may have seemed as if he was “repaying a favor” even more than before.

The “outburst” has “rehashed” Huwa-chan’s past behavior.

It was revealed that Huwa-chan had teased Yasuko-san about a close-up image of her face posted three years ago as an announcement, saying “Yasuko’s face was like this” in response to the post.

In February of this year, when she had a conversation with Yasuko-san, she replied that her response was not good enough, “He’s really talking only in flow, isn’t he? In February of this year, it was also revealed that Yasuko-san had posted on X with an irritated look on her face, saying, “He’s really only talking on flow, isn’t he? In response to this, the Internet was further criticized, such as “You’ve been making fun of Yasuko for a long time, haven’t you?” (Sports newspaper reporter).

In addition to Yasuko’s words and actions, the fact that the comedy trio “Nelson’s” Aoyama Folkachi pointed out Huwa-chan’s “bad manners” on the airplane on their video channel in May also attracted attention.

Aoyama said, “It is a characteristic of today’s social networking sites that a single flameout can lead to a rehash of past problematic comments and actions, and the flames can spread even further. In the past, if you wanted to look up past statements, you would have to go back to the VTR and look them up at the library, etc. It took a lot of effort.

Nowadays, however, past statements can be easily found by searching. If you post a quote from it, it will spread rapidly. Huwa-chan’s case is a typical example of the “concentrated fire” of the Internet age.

Huwa-chan apologized to Yasuko in person, but announced on the 11th that she was suspending her entertainment activities. When will she return to the public stage?
