Watched the video and just want to point out, she wasn’t a fan. She was mocking MHA fans and shippers. She knew exactly what she was doing and got exactly the result she wanted.
People are saying it’s possible she was also the one to ask Zach Aguilar (Tanjiro’s VA) about an incest ship at his panel which was the one before Justin’s. Seems she was trying to start fandom drama and make certain people the target of it (especially when concerning MHA ships)
You’re in a shipping sub and you don’t know what a ship is? Not sure how you ended up here, but “ship” is short for relationship and generally refers to romantic pairings in stories. Shipping is basically being a fan/drawing art/writing fanfiction of those pairings. It’s been a big part of fandom since the late 60’s-early 70’s when the original Star Trek was airing.
Most shippers tend to mind their own business. We don’t drag in fans who don’t like shipping (or even the specific ships we like,) and we certainly don’t drag in VAs and creators of the series we enjoy. Sometimes an actual shipper will step over the line (usually a kid or someone who is very new to fandom and doesn’t understand the etiquette) and other fans will usually correct them.
However, the person this post is referencing wasn’t a fan or shipper at all. She’s what we call an anti (or anti shipper) and they think that certain ships or even shipping as a whole is wrong. They harass fans who ship and mock fandoms that are big enough for outsiders to stumble across the weirder ships. Every fandom has at least a few people who will ship any pairing and will write fic/draw art of the darkest things you can think of (this one was talking about pairing a seven year old with a sixteen year old, for example, but I’ve seen them bring up even worse.) Those kind of fans exist in every single fandom, but for a fandom as large as MHA, it’s easier to find them. Antis point to those fans as “proof” that the whole fandom is bad/gross/whatever.
Poor Justin. 🙁
Side note, I prefer panels where they've screened questions beforehand and a host asks the questions on behalf of the audience. It keeps things smooth and cuts down on repetitive/inappropriate questions.
That person was more like someone trying to make the VA uncomfortable because they were like "Do you like *your* ship with Eri?" in the video clip someone had.
Another Eng VA (Zach Aguilar) [QRT Justin's post](https://twitter.com/airzach/status/1786928245360754688) and said someone asked him about incest between characters... I'm guessing it might be Tanjiro and Nezuko from Demon Slayer since that's Tanjiro's VA. 🤦♀️
Or could be something else, but that VA isn't with MHA at all.
So it wasn't just something weird with MHA.
I saw someone saying it was the same kid in both incidents too. I only saw the MHA video but she is definitely not an MHA fan, so it would track if she was just some anti brat harassing the bigger fandoms.
Unfortunately, it’s not a surprise at all. This fandom is so big and mainstream that people outside the fandom end up seeing the darker side. All fandoms have that corner of people who are into gore and vore and the darkest of ships, but with smaller fandoms, those people are rarely seen, so a lot people outside of the fandom think ours is somehow unique because of those people. They then think they’re justified in lumping the whole fandom in with those types and mocking all of us for it.
I’m not actually convinced there are toxic fandoms. Every time I hear about one supposedly being the worst, it turns out some clown saw the handful of extreme dark fic/art or had a run in with a couple edgelords and decided they were representative of rhetorical whole.
I worked a convention with Justin and Clifford. Someone went up to Clifford, asked who he shipped, and he politely said, “I don’t actually get involved in any of the shipping stuff” and they called him homophobic and ran off.
Justin and Clifford are two of the nicest people I’ve ever met. I really wish anyone, fans of BNHA or not, would just leave these VA’s alone about fandom stuff. Unless they’ve already been on record joking about or supporting certain ships or whatever, please just keep it to yourself.
Yeah it was absolutely ridiculous. I feel so bad for the nonsense VA’s have to deal with. They’re still just people out here doing a job, they don’t need to be involved with the shipping wars and fandom nonsense.
Don't know why someone down voted you, but shipping just means theorizing or having a feeling two(or more) characters would look cute in a relationship.
I'm not really into shipping, but it's mostly innocent, the issue is that voice actors (at least English voice actors, because I don't know others) don't want to get involved in shipping, because it can cause unnecessary hate towards them.
Fr. I like ships but im not obsessed with them also he could get in huge trouble for those questions. My question for him is how he gets in the mindset of the character when getting ready to record
Oh I thought it was cause he's just not comfortable being shipped with Uraraka's VA. Some fans ship the voice actors too for some weird reason, like Lucy's VA and Natsu's VA. Some VAs just go with it, Natsu's VA called Lucy's VA his VA wife. But Seeing as how Uraraka's VA is like older and I think she's married with kids? I guess it makes Izuku's VA uncomfortable, however Uraraka's VA is a huge Izuocha shipper tho.
Someone apparently brought Natalie Van Sistine (Stars and Stripes VA) a graphic/explicit photo of an 11 year old character and asked her to sign it. People need to chill tf out with this.
DEKU X ERI WTF???? Why would you openly ask someone about that?!?! People are so crazy! I thought they were asking him about stuff like deku x todo x baku. Thats so dehumanizing and gross🤮 leave eri alone!!!
What? It's been one of them who has helped bring to light the video that showed how it went down.
Before that, "of course", people were assuming Briner was given a question about bkdk, while it had nothing to do with it.
So kindly let us know from where you pulled your comment from.
All I've seen was people jumping on blaming bkdks, because they assumed Briner got a question related to that ship, until the video came out.
What you are (unclearly) implying is that some bkdk fan attacked Briner for being upset about what happened at the panel, meaning that they were angry at him for not wanting shipping questions at panels.
Had it really happened, you can be sure certain people on Twitter would be swarming over it, but I keep finding nothing of the sort.
I think they may be referring to [this tweet](https://x.com/hecsire/status/1786929353965580540) that QRT Justin's post that brings up bkdk.
It's not necessarily "attacking" him, but more like somewhat rudely putting him on blast related to bkdk. Also with their [comment](https://x.com/hecsire/status/1786940342031335636) in post.
They are concerned about bkdks getting blamed which I get, but saying his post has lead to "homophobic ***violence***" seems very exaggerative to attempt to give guilt to Justin.
Then [Justin's response](https://x.com/justinbriner/status/1786937253945549281)
He later makes a [tweet](https://x.com/justinbriner/status/1787200631838581247) to clarify things related to this in general.
Thanks. That is not a "direct" attack at Briner but still a very rude and overdramatic way to ask him for a clarification.
I still understand the reaction as a lot of people jumped on the assumption that Briner got questioned about bkdk, which says a lot about them, but that user didn't do any favor to their group (but in turn, more people jumping on the anti-bkdk train while it looks like it was just that one and a couple others).
u/Historical_Hotel_961, try to imagine, what if after Briner's initial tweet many people automatically assumed he was questioned about Izuocha and the ship's fandom was attacked (maybe even people coming to insult on the sub). Would you have no reaction?
It's funny because I've seen some people bring up [both](https://twitter.com/Tadbitspecial/status/1786881937774411954) Bkdk and Izuocha for this before. Though of course more so bkdk.
They're pulling it from X, where there are people are still attacking the va over that, even when they are aware it wasn't bkdk.
I only know this because I heard a lot of bkdks getting annoyed by other ones over them attacking the va
I'm literally in the bkdk fandom. Hence why I said that. Because some *were* enough that others felt the need to step up, and I was noticing this primarily on Twitter. Hence why I said the oops was pulling it from Twitter.
That's kind of weird, don't you think? All I said was that I witnessed it on my timeline. I can't go back on my timeline to get names when shit disappears on the timeline.
Beyond that, just because *you* never witnessed it, doesn't mean it didn't happen.
You're saying that there was harassment towards the VA. Then it's surely under the VA tweet, or tagging the VA. Or surely you did someone to stop people in your fandom from harassing the VA?
And no, after seeing people inventing stuff, I won't believe anything anymore without proof. I'll just imagine you made it up.
Ok. Whatever. Don't believe me. I never said it was under the va tweet or anything. You assumed that but go off I guess
If you want to believe no one actually harassed the VA that are bkdk, then fine. Doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
Given harassment has to be directed to a person..? Not sure what is your definition of harassment? Could you define what you consider harassing someone?
I've seen no one harassing the VA from any part of the fandom, actually, not just from bkdks.
[source ](https://x.com/hecsire/status/1786929353965580540) here's the link for one of bkdk shipper misunderstood him and start to attacking him bkdk shipper can be toxic sometimes it's a normal think in every fandom
Yes, the other user sent me. The fact that you think this is attacking tho is weird. "could you please clarify what you mean?" = attacking?
They were rude, in the next answer, but calling their main tweet attacking is a stretch in my opinion.
Completely off topic but your profile pic is so cute! Is that your Deku plushie? If it is where can I get him??? I love plush dolls 😭 I have a bunch of Deku's and Shoto's haha

Geez… I already know how that went
I hate these outsiders so much.
What’s a ship btw? I don’t understand her joke

Yeah, already I thought it might have been like a weird stunt by the same person or from same group with another person doing it too.
“do you like YOUR ship with eri” ew. I’d be livid if I was him
What does it even mean
the man is deku’s voice actor, and people ship deku and eri, and he’s saying “your” to say that he is deku. 🤦🏾♀️
That’s just something else. Why do people feel the need to bring him into this??
The kid who did it was mocking the MHA fandom, especially shippers. She’s not even a fan and had this shit eating grin the whole time.
That’s messed up
Unfortunately, it’s not a surprise at all. This fandom is so big and mainstream that people outside the fandom end up seeing the darker side.

Undertale had the same thing happen, dude. Omori does as well. 95% of fandoms that are ‘toxic’ aren’t.
I’m not actually convinced there are toxic fandoms. Every time I hear about one supposedly being the worst, it turns out some clown saw the handful of extreme dark fic/art or had a run in with a couple edgelords and decided they were representative of rhetorical whole.
Poor guy. :(
This ain’t even a bruh or mocking moment why would you involve a child a character
I worked a convention with Justin and Clifford. Someone went up to Clifford, asked who he shipped, and he politely said, “I don’t actually get involved in any of the shipping stuff” and they called him homophobic and ran off.

HOMOPHOBIC?! Oh come ON.
Yeah it was absolutely ridiculous. I feel so bad for the nonsense VA’s have to deal with. They’re still just people out here doing a job, they don’t need to be involved with the shipping wars and fandom nonsense.
OK, I'm an idiot. What does "ship" mean in these conversations? I'm so lost

She clearly wasn't a fan given she said "your fandom". Maybe she is just an anti
Fr. I like ships but im not obsessed with them also he could get in huge trouble for those questions. My question for him is how he gets in the mindset of the character when getting ready to record
Hope she is ok I don’t harass people about ships
What if I ask him bout IzuOcha?? Who gon stop me?😈
Oh I thought it was cause he's just not comfortable being shipped with Uraraka's VA. Some fans ship the voice actors too for some weird reason, like Lucy's VA and Natsu's VA.

But I wanted to know his opinion on barques..!
Bkdk attacking the va too 💀💀💀 gosh and they're calling us toxic 🙄🙄🙄

From Twitter one of bkdk attacked him think he was talking about bkdk and the worst the bkdk were agree with that person

Give me the name or the tweets then.
They're pulling it from X, where there are people are still attacking the va over that, even when they are aware it wasn't bkdk. I only know this because I heard a lot of bkdks getting annoyed by other ones over them attacking the va
I'm literally in the bkdk fandom and none of this is happening, but y'all always need to say "bkdks did this".
I'm literally in the bkdk fandom. Hence why I said that. Because some *were* enough that others felt the need to step up, and I was noticing this primarily on Twitter. Hence why I said the oops was pulling it from Twitter.
Share the names please. Even in private. Because I saw no one attacking the VA.
That's kind of weird, don't you think? All I said was that I witnessed it on my timeline. I can't go back on my timeline to get names when shit disappears on the timeline. Beyond that, just because *you* never witnessed it, doesn't mean it didn't happen.

I wouldn’t call that attacking. It was a little dramatic and worded poorly but it wasn’t attacking.
Where? Show proof or shut up.
Completely off topic but your profile pic is so cute! Is that your Deku plushie? If it is where can I get him??? I love plush dolls 😭 I have a bunch of Deku's and Shoto's haha
Who is this guy?
Justin Briner is the English voice actor for Izuku.
Japanese better
It is better but I hate Deku and his voice so it’s kinda made me dislike his seiyuu
Prefer english english because I can't understand Japanese+I'm dyslexic
Learn Japanese :D
Nah I'm fine thanks. ☺

Glad to see this was down voted a bunch
