Question from readers:
There are rumors that X-ko filed a sexual assault claim against Masahiro Nakai and received a settlement of 90 million yen as revenge for being rejected by him. Is this true? Furthermore, it’s said that she sold information to a weekly magazine and had Nakai expelled from the entertainment industry. If this is the case, it would mean
that X-ko successfully achieved her revenge. Additionally, there’s talk of significant losses incurred by Fuji TV due to this situation. If true, X-ko would no longer be seen as just a victim. While the identity of the victim remains unknown, I can’t help but feel a sense of discomfort seeing people elevate X-ko with the sentiment that “she did nothing wrong.” Will we end up without ever knowing the truth? Or will new information emerge in the future? What do you all think?
Reflecting on the rumors
Recently, I heard some surprising rumors about Masahiro Nakai from a friend. The story that X-ko received 90 million yen in a settlement after filing a sexual assault claim is quite dramatic if it’s true. However, it also raises many questions. According to my friend, the claim that X-ko sold information to a weekly magazine seems suspicious. If that were true, it would contradict the settlement agreement, and she might even have to return the settlement money. Given this, there seems to be a lack of consistency.
Concerns about media statements
It seems that this issue was also mentioned on a morning show, but as Tamagawa pointed out, is there really a solid source or acquaintance behind the information that appears in weekly magazines? I can’t shake the feeling that there are various manipulations happening behind the scenes. I enjoy comedy and often watch stand-up acts, and I believe they have the power to genuinely move people’s hearts. That’s why, whether in this incident or others, the media’s influence is significant. Comedy can connect people, but it can also create misunderstandings and biases. It leaves me with mixed feelings.
Considering the victim’s position
Whether X-ko successfully achieved revenge or not is uncertain, but it’s clear that the public perception is that “X-ko did nothing wrong,” which feels a bit off to me. While she remains a victim, without knowing the full truth, it’s hard to distinguish between being merely a victim or having intentionally escalated the situation. Hearing stories like this makes me think about the feelings and circumstances of the victim while also reflecting on how the media presents these events. I have a desire to know what is right and to uncover the truth, but the obscurity is frustrating.
I want to hear everyone’s opinions
After hearing this story, what do you all think? Is there a chance for the truth to come to light, or will we continue to receive no updates? I’d love for you to share any thoughts in the comments! I feel that there are many perspectives in the world that we may not even consider.
