 Perhaps he meant to make a light remark to an acquaintance in a joking manner. He probably could not have imagined that it would turn into such a big deal.
 The &#8220;Huwa-chan&#8221; fiasco shows no signs of abating. On the contrary, the ripples are spreading.
 The uproar was triggered by an inappropriate post on a social networking service, but the number of slanderous posts that go beyond accusations against Huwa-chan has been increasing, further highlighting the problems that social networking services are facing.
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
 The posts have gone beyond reproach and have become even more damaging to Huwa-chan, who has been forced to take a hiatus from both TV programs and commercials,
 She didn&#8217;t have to go that far.
 Some people have said, &#8220;Yasuko has already forgiven her, so why not let her go?
 However, the most common opinion is that &#8220;she deserved it.
 The scary thing about social networking is that just one moment can cause you to lose everything.
 There have been cases in the past where popular personalities who were well-liked by others were slammed for their social networking posts, and some were even forced to &#8220;suspend&#8221; their activities. In the case of Huwa-chan, however, many people felt that she was in danger.
 She was a character in her own right, but from the point of view of a reasonable person, she behaved in a rude manner. As she herself has said, the reason she was fired from her major agency was that when she went to TBS for an audition, she found herself in the dressing room of Hitoshi Matsumoto, who was appearing on the program, and when she tried to force her way into his office to say hello, she was stopped and reprimanded by the staff.
 Later, he was spotted and warned by an office official who happened to be passing by as he was sitting on the floor of the station, and he raised his middle finger toward the back of this official&#8217;s head. Huwa-chan thought he was giving the middle finger so that he could not be seen, but since it was nighttime, it was reflected in the glass, and another person in the office found it and reported it to the officer. The story is that he was fired immediately.

 Up to that point, he had been out of control, fiddling with his phone while office staff were talking to him and ignoring staff orders to read manga. He seemed to be causing trouble on a daily basis, and a person from the office he belonged to at the time said
 &#8220;It was a good thing we fired him at that time,&#8221; said an official of the office he worked for at the time.
 I&#8217;m glad we fired him at that time,&#8221; said an official at his office.
<div data-friday-nextpage-lead=" At first, Huwa-chan was &quot;useless on live TV,&quot; but..."></div>
She then began to work freelance, but her natural talents made her popular as a YouTuber. From there, her TV appearances as a &#8220;comedian&#8221; increased, and she eventually became a popular TV personality with several regular programs, including an information program commentator and her own eponymous show.
 A TV station official who has watched Huwa-chan closely says, &#8220;Before, Huwa-chan used to be a &#8216;live&#8217; personality, but now she is a &#8216;live&#8217; personality.
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
 He used to be one of those talents who were useless on live TV. I was always nervous about what she would say or do, but I thought that was her charm and that was what made her interesting. She was often late and took a long time to get to meetings because she didn&#8217;t listen to what was being said.
 Even so, I never reprimanded her harshly because it was not detrimental to the program itself. The other person is a TV personality, and they have the numbers (ratings).
 Her character is characterized by her bluntness and rude mannerisms. However, perhaps it was her unique &#8220;animal instinct,&#8221; she says, that made her &#8220;sniff out&#8221; those who were good for it and those who were not.
 Sometimes her &#8220;natural talent&#8221; would be off, and some of her co-stars would frown at her and say, &#8220;She&#8217;s not quite right,&#8221; and she would look a little depressed when she realized it. I don&#8217;t know if we&#8217;ve gotten used to it or if she&#8217;s grown up, but I think she&#8217;s generally less tame and rude these days, rather than just looking at people.
 I think she has learned to properly separate TV and YouTube, but I guess she still didn&#8217;t know the difference between what is right and wrong to do. That is the responsibility of TV, which also has the role of nurturing talent. &#8230;&#8230;
 There is a fine line between &#8220;immaculate&#8221; or &#8220;innocent&#8221; and &#8220;insane&#8221; or &#8220;impolite,&#8221; and even in the entertainment industry, the latter is unacceptable.
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
 However, it is difficult to interfere in the personal social networking activities of individuals.
 There are many firms that have a firm control over the SNS of the talent they belong to. If Huwa had a staff around her who could control it well, this would not have happened. 
However, she was not the only one who was not in control of her social networking,
 Huwa herself doesn&#8217;t like to be managed by someone else, as if she feels constrained,&#8221; said a source at a TV station.
 Many people say that even if she came back, there would be no place for her in the entertainment industry, but since she has been able to live a life of her own, she probably has no regrets about being in the &#8220;cramped&#8221; world of show business.
