| According to TBS, Imamura Norio, the seiyu of Ivankov Emporio in One Piece, was arrested for the exhibition of indecent pictures. Imamura had allegedly exhibited a picture of his lower body (with the genital organ exposed) in his blog for two months. He deposed that he wanted to make a show of his whole-body tattoo, which took him ten years for completion. Imamura is running a bar for tattoo lovers in Shinjuku, Tokyo. Imamura has been on friendly terms with the author Oda Eiichiro and Tanaka Mayumi, and he is the model of Ivankov character. Source: TBS |

| I can see the long lines to get a tattoo... |
 |
| People are reacting as if he's going to get the death penalty. He'll get a fine at the most, there's no reason why he wouldn't be able to keep doing the voice. |
| @AfterGlow nah, its just the arc that starts in the anime has also Ivankov in it.. ofc when he will be released he will continue.. prolly he'll be changed with somebody else if he wont get out soon |
| Well, the said content is currently not on his blog, according to news updates. And they were there for 2 months? O__O |
smokes said: @AfterGlow nah, its just the arc that starts in the anime has also Ivankov in it.. ofc when he will be released he will continue.. prolly he'll be changed with somebody else if he wont get out soon I'm certain they have already recorded the dialog for a multitude of episodes. Also, he won't be detained for more than a few hours most likely. He gets a fine, someone bails him out. No worries. |
| This is kind of ironic since he plays a queer maybe he was trying to get into character LOL |

| I bet his bounty will increase after this incident. ;p hahaha. Rofl! |

| Ten years for a tattoo? What a waste |
| It was only in his blog; nothing wrong with that. |
| it was a good voice actor hopefully he can continue |
